Eggs - fair enough! Maybe commenting about "Best Practice" isn't what we should be doing here, so I will move on. And as for Jersey and a wicked witch, I wonder if this is a pseudonym for a man? A good way of disguising who you are!
And I won't be enjoying the Channel Islands so much in future, as they are moving me to Scotland! (With my blessing - new aircraft, bigger faster!) But I'll still be down once a week, and, to be fair, it is always a pleasure and I'm not upset with the controllers or anyone else: I was just making an observation. Things change and rarely get better.
