World record at Heathrow

Travelling to Munich this Saturday afternoon for the DLD Conference in Munich. Realised on the way to catch the train near home that I'd forgotten to pack any cufflinks - which sounds not very problematic unless you have packed only shirts that have cuffs with no buttons! Added it to Heathrow shopping list.
The train was on time in London, the Bakerloo line worked and I caught a Heathrow Express train with no problems. It pulled into Heathrow at 1555 and I was through to the BA lounge in less than 17 minutes - including all security checks and the purchase of an(other) emergency set of cufflinks in Thomas Pink. There was even time to have a joke with the extremely friendly sales staff in the shirt retailer - top marks to them both.
Now sitting here wondering why every trip is not like this - hassle free at the airport. So it's time for a drink or two. Cheers.
