30th March 2016 - Lower Upham and Thruxton

[graham]

I had emailed Lower Upham a few days prior to my visit and had received no reply. So, I called in anyway and was met with a suspicious "who are you?" by some surly bloke in the portacabin who'd obviously got out of bed the wrong side that morning. I told him that I'd emailed to which he merely grunted that he hadn't received anything. So, being on the point of turning around and walking back to my car, he then says that seeing as I was there, he might as well show me around. I then went to Thruxton, a field I'd visited many times so was chuffed to make six frames, most of which were lurking to the rear of the workshops on the opposite side to the Western Air hangar.
