Lovely thought and quite right. Hate to be a party pooper but a by product could be FOD from the wrapping if left at the viewing area.

Indeed, I'd suggest adding your contribution to those by the main gate where they can all be maintained together.

Main gate is the best option, IMHO :thumbs:

Bless you ;)

Just a thought for those like myself can't get to Lakenheath, maybe we could all chip in & get something from the whole of the FC members. Somebody nearby would need to be willing to organise & deliver it.
