Lounge meetup is a good idea, since I think there'll be at least three of us at the Sheraton tomorrow night. For me it will be around 7:30, all being well. No doubt up for a few drinks with anyone not at the Sheraton afterwards. Suggestions welcome.

Gutted to be missing this excellent DO, I'll be there in spirit at least ^
Hope the pre DO events tonight and tomorrow morning go well and that the host shows up for the main event this time
The weather was forecast to be a bit cool but that will just make the warm companionship all the better me thinks. @:-)
Enjoy and safe travels everyone.

I shall be in the BA Galleries First lounge from about midday tomorrow (or possibly a bit later because Saturday is the day I catch up on my much-needed beauty sleep).
If any fellow goldie wants to say hello there, please PM me.
If there is an attendee who will be in LHR tomorrow between midday and 3 pm, is looking for company but who lacks access to the BA F lounge, please also feel free to PM me.

All right, I am on my way. And it does not start well: I arrived at FRA train station and the access to the terminal is blocked: unattended luggage. Strong police presence and a the entire corridor leading to the terminal is closed.
Hopefully I will catch my flight.
