Having v recently re-located to S Oxon, I have been slightly perplexed by some of the antics of boys from Benson, particularly given recent events. Not so long back the fam & I witnessed a Puma
climbing to clear a teleraph wire running across a field (50' floor? me arrse). A few days we had a Merlin turning & burning (well, turning at least) directly overhead our house (to be fair we routinely get Tutors doing aeros o/h as well). Its not surprising some of the locals are getting a nad animated.
I'm not complaining BTW - it beats the incessant drone of a/c inbound and departing LHR which we had to put up with in our previous abode.
Roger - I'll keep an eye out for your letter in the local rag
