CIHY, you must have a very good memory or toothy was very memorable!
Funnily enough your name did come up in conversation at some point during the TLL do, along the lines if anybody had met you in real life!

I know, but it only took you 6 minutes to take the bait there in my jokey post 
I will be very careful indeed and discretion is a great quality to have and I am sure you have that in abundance 
Back on topic I'd be genuinely curious as to how many FTr's are in T5 on an average day, not many overall I suspect but I'd have a stab at 10 as a random number with no data points!

Hypethetical question:
You see a fellow traveller, who you think might be a FT BAEC regular, do you:
1. Ignore them - we're too British to talk IRL with strangers
2. Take out the laptop and click refresh on the FR BAEC tab and hope they notice
3. Flamboyantly take a photo of your meal
4: Run over and shout "you're @corporate-wage-slave and I claim my 500 Avios" !

I've got it on my backpack as well and have never met any FTers because of the tag. Only at FT Dos. I can't even remember seeing an FT tag on someone else in the last couple of years.
