Yes, I don't expect to win this one (at least in UK law I don't have standing anyway, since any contract is between ST and AF, not between ST and me). But I enjoy the sparring, and if they don't accept my pragmatic solution, i.e. don't let me into the lounge, I will be insisting on my two EU261 telexes!
P.S.: Goldorak go! Corno-fulgur! Fulguropoing! Astero-hache! Pulvonium! Aaah, souvenirs, souvenirs...
