A good idea?
I think you are right. I was in F lounge at LHR ten days ago. I got in about 5 30 pm. I watched a large amount of suited up guys, all who have the big gold tag prominently showing DYKWIA. They are usually in lounge for about 20 mins and seem hell bent of snorting a large amount of strong booze in a very short space of time. I find it hilarious they way they eye each other up and down like strutting peacocks. Oh and dont forget the compulsory phone call to advise your friends you are in the F lounge not the business lounge.
