Yes, the London room! To be honest I haven't flown through T1 much since T5 opened - it's been mostly T5, T3 and T4 for me the past few years - and so the 'new' names for the lounges haven't stuck. Good memories of what used to be the Diamond Club lounge (the upstairs of the BMI lounge), the BA Domestic Lounge and the old BA international lounge (both floors) though!

When I go in the London Room now and see all the empty space, it's hard to believe I was worried about overcrowding when they closed off the diamond club floor on the domestic lounge!
Remember at one time there were also two separate bmi international lounges in T1, one for diamond club and one for business class (they weren't that impressive though, the GBL was definitely a big improvement for the international lounge).
