LHR T5B Lounge music
First time in this lounge today ans it’s far better than the A lounges with the exception of the over loud terrible music.

is the strategy that everyone likes different music so choose some that no one likes so we are all equal?

Combined with the Super Software Saleswoman behind me power calling it’s a shame as it’s a nice space

I have been asking for some drum & bass in the CCR for years but no one seems to approve of my choice

What is a “Fist trick” and who is the “super Software Saleswoman”?

A pastime that RockyRobin wishes their predictive text hadn't revealed in an attempt to type "first time" on their phone?

"Pound music" presumably being "loud music"

On Sunday afternoon an announcement was made in LHR GF Lounge apologising for the loud music and that they were unable to turn it down as it was controlled remotely.

This announcement was made twice while I was in the lounge and most people sitting nearby just laughed 🤭

I would rather moan on here.....

i didn't think they would be open to requests, one assumes there were several meetings about what number to turn it to and 11 was agreed

11 it was, to drown out the noise made by very important people on their mobile phones.

It's a psychological trick to annoy you enough to hurry up and leave. One less gin and tonic they have to buy you.
