neatly avoiding the nearby town of Carterton, as they make their way to the John Radcliffe Hospital in Oxford.
Its odd, but when I was serving at RAF Brize Norton we had to take our daughter to the John Radcliffe Hospital for her regular check-ups. On no occasion ever did we pass through or near Carterton since it is not on the most direct route to Oxford. A shorter route would be to turn right, then left onto the A4095 through Curbridge. Of course, there would then be no High Street along the route for the Press and crowds to gather and "pay their respects".
