Can use miles instead of cash, but is expensive either way. Try bringing only the necessities. 20kg over allowance may be stretching "flexiblity" a bit.

I was over 15kg once when I was at LHR. The ground staff decided to play it strict, and I was charged either 12K miles or 480 GBP. In the end I used miles.
