Heathrow T5?
« on: March 14, 2008, 08:09:12 AM »
The BBC says that the check-in desk is ‘the length of four football fields’.  ::)

Apart from that tho – how will T5 increase capacity by 30 million passengers per year? There are no more take-off or landing slots and of course no extra runways…  shrugs:

All that money wasted on the public enquiry when everybody knew that the decision was made already. Now they have the terminal capacity but not enough runways – the perfect justification for the third runway at Heathrow.  rubschin:

And guess what T5 is slap, bang next to? The site for the proposed new runway.  eeek:

Wonders never cease…  noooo:

I see the Queen is doing the official opening, no doubt to give it the maximum publicity

Maybe she could clamber over the perimeter fence and run up the runway. That seems to do the trick  ;)

Where the bloody-hell have you been all day hound?  cussing:

I have been ranting at the Council, the builders and the plumbers who installed my new central heating boiler and oil tank last August. We are burning more oil than ever and costs are getting out of hand so I called in the manufacturers. The whole system had been incorrectly set up so I have bollocked everyone involved and asked for recompense for the additional costs to me caused by their joint incompetence. Solicitors letters will be flying around by Monday evil:
