I was so aware of staying above 20m, it was off-putting!

I was at 30 - 40m at the lowest - though I get the feeling they would not have been that bothered

I phoned on my first take off and land and at the end of my first landing call I asked if I could just ring the when it was all done later that afternoon and they were cool with that haha - very relaxed they were.

I called 15 minutes early, and was told to ring back at the due time.
They weren’t bothered with which drone either, even when I asked if it was ok to land one and go up with the other.
She seemed quite polite really, asking at the end if I’d got some good images!
I got no answer a couple of times, but the rung me straight back.

The workers on the runway might have had something to say if I’d got too close though :grin:
