On topic though, I used to work Bournemouth a lot, and actually heard them clear a could of near infringers to enter the zone just before they were about to infringe, even though they hadn't asked for it. I guess it saved on the paperwork if there was absolutely no conflicting traffic, and the clearance came with a restriction to remain within x miles of the zone boundary. Heard it on more than one occasion though.

Then again, I did also hear a weekend flyer from a private strip, when they asked him what service he required, he said "the normal one" they said, "do you mean a basic service", and he said "I'll just have whatever everyone else is having" so perhaps they're not dealing with the best bunch down that way.
