Just about to board my flight to BRU.

I timed a few things:

Good news is that you can get from the Heathrow Express to conformance BP in 2 minutes (without running). This means that if you catch a HEX at Paddington 1h before departure, you can just make it.

Bad news: North Security fast track took 17 minutes. So you might have missed your flight even if you made it through conformance.
I previously always used South security with much shorter queues. Is this always the case?

I liked the North Galleries terrace. Nice views to enjoy a good bacon roll with HP sauce.
