Sorry to hear that.

Definitely an LHR thingie - I was turned down twice @ LHR. Once with the excuse that the airport is too small to hold all the luggage of the passengers who check in too early (I kid you not, the rent-a-CSR @ LHR indeed said that). The second time, it was already the terror issue. If they allowed that, terrorists could check-in luggage early too ... can't argue that logic ... I mean they could...

Add to this that this piece of rubble also doesn't provide any lockers and you can enjoy the true stress-free environment at LHR ...
