Question Why was he wearing a white coverall in GF?

I spotted this chap hurrying through GF last Sunday. Why was he wearing a white coverall/onesie in the lounge?
Perhaps
- BA lost his luggage
- he was on his way to a fancy dress party
- he was a Pest Control Executive sorting out the mouse problem

Any ideas?

He's read about the state of BA aircraft cleaning and is taking no chances.

Could just be a traveller off on a festive fancy dress night out. He’s heard how messy the London Do is going to be. Hi

Some of you FTers clearly pay no attention to fashion.

The 'onesie' that you refer to, is actually a Gucci White Winter suit, and you'll see them in most high-end Ski resorts this winter. They're the epitome of luxury, made from fully breathable organic and ethically sourced cotton, lined with chinchilla fur.

Some or all of the above, is a lie.

I did wonder if he was wearing designer pyjamas and had got changed in the lounge prior to boarding his flight.

Did he have a respirator as well a la Breaking Bad? It's genius, don't smuggle the drugs past security, manufacture them after security

It's me stealing chicken curry. The suit (patent pending) is fitted with a pump and filtration system to retain even miniscule chicken particles in a small pouch for in flight sustenance on Eurotraveller flights. I mentioned it in the "lounge pilfering is causing the inevitable destruction of western civilisation" thread, just before the "coca cola is the elixir of life" digression.

Gucci Gang you say ?


I reckon maybe a germaphobe to the extreme , you know the people you see on the TLC channel. However it maybe a new way to sneak into the GF lounge , pretend you are pest control.

Wink

He’s actually a Met forensic scientist on his way to take dna / fingerprint samples as a result of the increased levels in lounge pilfering

Pest Control Executive is indeed the correct explanation for the white overalls.

Worth noting that, during the Festive Season (up to 13th January), his role has been expanded to encompass not just the mouse problem, but any incidents arising from the controversial decision to allow GCH’s numerous additional guests, including food fights.
