They’re not modernising the place – rather, they’re taking it back in time. And, little by little, they’re getting there.
If everything goes to plan, bed-and-breakfast guests will next summer be shown to their rooms in the old signal office or controller’s rest room. They’ll relax in a cosy lounge – originally the air station’s meteorological and teleprinter room - resplendent with 1930s furnishings, wash and shave in art deco bathrooms, choose what to have for brekkie on Ministry of Food-style menus and read daily postings of the RAF station’s operations schedules as they were in the days of 1944-45.
I think the word "envious" no where near, describes my feelings.
There is no paralell in warfare, to such courage and determination in the face of danger, over so long a period. Such devotion, should never be forgotten.
