Maybe it’s just crowds, sitting in an orderly fashion suits me, but pushing and barging get my gander up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ramit Posted August 30, 2018 Share Posted August 30, 2018 If by chance you are traveling on but are stuck at Heathrow terminal 3 and have some hours to kill, try this. Attempt to find the smoking room and when that quest turns out unsuccessful go walking around until you see a long corridor which says staff only. March right through there like you own the place, passed a couple of check counters (remember to nod head slightly at staff) and tallyho, you are in the airport parking lot. You will have to take it from there, for i returned to terminal 3 after my smoke. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The idea of getting dragged into a back room by some huge machine gun toting security man only to be stripped and anally probed is not our idea of fu... Oh wait, just checked with the wife and apparently we're going to Heathrow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rev Posted August 30, 2018 Share Posted August 30, 2018 London pass can be good value, if it includes the things you'd like to do. Churchill war rooms and the tower of London are very good, as is the River Cruise and hop on/off bus tour. https://www.londonpass.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stagtime Posted August 30, 2018 Share Posted August 30, 2018 Brick Lane on a Sunday for the best food, Borough Market for dinner and Portobello Rd on a weekend. In my opinion, the greatest city in the world. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Go to the top, have a coffee, look at the view, then go to the pub. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
