Could you work in that the flight was cancelled due to operational issues at Heathrow?

Where is your meeting, pal? General area will do.
Yout cortisol levels must be off the charts.

London mate.
Near Victoria.
Heathrow is horrible
Youāll do well to make 2pm Iām afraid.
That long walk to the Heathrow Express is the enemy of a traveller under time pressure.
Do keep us posted though, Iāll be checking the thread throughout the morning and afternoon.

My meeting is from 1pm-4pm. My british business friends will be rolling their eyes when I turn up at 1.49pm before announcing Iāve to head off early at around 3.50pm to make my flight home. Similar to the way over, Iāll be fucked if Iām going to wait for a flight around 8pm on the off chance the meeting overruns.
Were you telling me you can just tap at barriers to pay for Heathrow Express & tube these days? I should have looked into this kind of thing.

Youāll be treated like royalty over there.
Theyāre mad cunts on the road but no crashes either.
@Bandage on the Guinness since 6am in the airport, the drunken paddy missed his flight and is now desperately looking for a way out

Grab the Elizabeth line from Heathrow. Itās a game changer. You can tap at barriers.
Take it to Hammersmith and change there to get to Victoria.

The stereotype is correct, paddy cannot control himself in airports at 6am when pints are available

Yes Apple/Google Pay/bank card is the job. Throw a few quid into your Revolut GBP. I have 23 pound to use up on an Oyster card this weekend but will be binning it after that
Iāll be very disappointed in my great e-pal @Bandage if he doesnāt end up at Craven Cottege for the Monday Night Football tonight.
surely LGW is the go to for a victoria area meeting with the victoria express?

not a criticism of bandage, merely guidance for the future and perhaps some subtle shade at the gobdaw that booked his travel
