The upstairs lounge is small but comfortable. There is a small fridge with cold drinks that I quickly clear of the limnited supply of beer.
The lounge was very quite. There was only Sheena and I along with the actor
Warren Clarke and his family.
I understand it is restricted to First Class pax only. Gold members are not permitted to use it (unless travelling First.)
That's funny I saw that and thought who the heck is Warren Clarke, but followed the link and thought 'oh HIM!' one of those faces you see all the time but never know the name... I'll have forgotten the name by the morning!
That lounge is definitely first class pax alright, a sort of mini concorde room without the champagne or pretty much anything really!... speaking of Concorde anyone seen how the hangar is getting there for it? Must be finished by now.
Just one more thing; anyone going to Barbados absolutely MUST go the fish fry in Oistins on a Friday night, it's the best food anywhere on the island and costs mere pennies. Watch out for the rum and cokes though they are RATHER STRONG!
