I always enjoy these threads on the BA board - so much better-natured than one can ever hope for on the AAdvantage one...
(in any case, since BoB started, I have refused to even look at the menu - I'm not paying £2.50 for a cup of tea.)

She is studiously ignored by BA, being a woman of a certain age. The best she achieves is being "Passenger #2 " on our bookings. Although, that said, she was sent a Nunwood [her first] after our recent trip as Pax2 ... for which I was the lead Pax and had paid for the flights! Even our last Lounge visit had the Agent asking if she was my guest, despite her gold-ness being clearly displayed on her BP.

"We offer a vast selection of options with which you can pair our delicious and popular fish supper including fish, beef or pork!" ***

So having waded all the way through this thread and given the odds-on chances of their being no scones left anyway on the flight, where is the best place in T5 to get a cream tea (I don't need the sandwiches)?
