Not a usual thing. But if you are paying F, then I'm sure BA is perfectly happy with that.

I'd imagine it is not very common.

Each to their own. Is this a child or, perhaps, someone from a culture that doesn't wear outdoor shoes inside?

Not a child, they are an adult and certainly don’t seem dressed in any other way that would suggest they are from a different culture, perhaps they just find it very warm in all of the BA lounges as I do .......

In that case, this adult seems overly keen to begin their Elemis pedicure booked 29 days, not 28 days, in advance through YouFirst!

When I first read this I thought you were referring to death! (Mind you that would show your strength of feeling on the matter)

Does the OP say the person was male? All I saw was confirmation that it was an adult.
