Bit of a challenge, this NOTAM ...
"OXFORD JOHN RADCLIFFE HOSPITAL. 3 CRANES ADJACENT TO SITE.
ALL HEL TO CALL HOSPITAL SWITCHBOARD BEFORE USE TO ENSURE CRANE JIBS
NOT OBSTRUCTING HEL LDG SITE."
Now, how long before the local schoolboys start showing off to the girlies by phoning up on their mobes, pretending to be helicopter pilots, and watching the cranes move out of the way out of the classroom window?

I'd never have thought of doing that, you are truly sick and twisted; I like that in a wombat. If only I lived nearer to Oxford I'd be trying it.

Wonderful!
Try getting something like that past the NOTAM office at Heathrow! Just wouldn't happen. I'll never take their name in vain again (well, not for a while, anyway).
It makes me glad that we've got a filter on our AFTN machine
