Could the LGW Galleries Club image be updated to reflect the Galleries refresh the lounge received a year or so ago? Currently the image shows the lounge from its Terraces days.
There are some up to date images here; http://www.airreview.com/BA/PicLounge-LGW/Lounge1.htm

Thanks for this useful thread.
Perhaps worth mentioning that the BHD lounge has direct boarding from lounge. While it is physically beside stand/gate 4 (the one with the airbridge), from airside departures the gates are marked "door A", "door B" and "door C". The BA lounge is beside door A.
It also has soup alongside its meagre offerings!
EI now use it too, which is relevant for any BA status pax on BA codeshares to LHR - they still exist alongside the up to 7/day ex-bmi service!

"Manage My booking" is telling me that I have access to the Yorkshire Premier Lounge at LBA for my forthcoming booking, some evidence I should think towards confirming the BAEC association.

MMB does not indicate that there is a lounge at GLA!

EDI update
The former bmi lounge at EDI (Gate 4) has now closed. I was told it will reopen in about three months time

Yep, and we certainly need more space. It's crammed with BMI status matchers!

Not a lounge as such but status, First or CW passengers at T5C have a free service at Starbucks to a £15 limit.
