Question

Mono, I'm still curious about the apparent change of heart at Thame, as the strip was still in last year's AFE Guide with the rubric unchanged: powered visitors welcome (although NB at weekends only). I haven't yet bought this year's edition of the Guide, so do not know if the entry has been amended or withdrawn, on account of visitor naughtiness or otherwise. Is anyone here a member of the gliding club at the strip and able to comment?

PS: If in Thame at lunchtime try the Swan, but avoid the Spreadeagle (once one of the great Inns of England and a location for a sequence in Brideshead Revisited, but now a dull chain hotel).

PPS: If you get there by air please fly over my mum's house (just by the roundabout across from the park at the eastern end of town) and give her a wave.
