No calls please were British

The previous remind me of the response received years ago when approaching a popular small airfield North of Biggin where one would have thought that in the interests of safety alone aircraft announcing their approach or intentions to land there would have at the least received a simple- even friendly acknowleldgement -instead of their customary curt -
'No calls allowed' !

By comparison pilots calling up an airfield of similar dispostion - Headcorn
could be assurred of a friendly and welcoming "Join at your discretion" from the late departed Chris - controller and former owner.
