I do remember in the days when the Executive Lounge was exclusive and not the Waiting Room at Clapham Junction station - some woman loudly complaining that BA had changed their tea/coffee cups from Wedgewood Bone China to those coloured Now We Are Five cups.
"I haven't got a full set of 6 " protested she.
