Thanks everyone for the useful links or comments, very much appreciated. ^

I'll give this a go and look forward to the new AA 777 seat and experience.

Thanks again.

jcm9000, not sure there is going to be much to miss TBH...certainly a quieter and bigger lounge but if I am not flying BA that often in future (will try the other airlines once in a while next year to compare the landscape once again and see if the grass is greener or not, last time it wasn't...) BUT...certainly happy to meet up anytime and share a drink / breakfast / laugh ^
