Drinks were plentiful, but BA seem unable to serve white wine or beers chilled. FA was kept busy finding glasses of ice. Chilled beers eventually located in CW bars.
It's been a while since I've been WTP - this is a long daylight flight and the ice lollies/ice creams and 'Tuck Box' have been enhanced away; galley snacks on this leg were nothing more that some salt and vinegar snacks or chocolate digestives.
