Topcliffe memories

Only visited once in the late '80's to fix a Shack. B&B in the local one-pub village. The landlady was memorable for the best breakfast in living memory, and for "the front door will be locked at 2300 sharp!". Yes, mum.
The airfield was Army with JEFTS Bulldogs based in one hangar. We doubled the RAF temporary presence for one week while we dragged out an engine change. An interesting time with a story attached, but maybe another day.
