Did it yonks ago.... still hasn't prevented horrendous queues.
Exception was Pisa, where we strolled through in 5 minutes.

EDIT: carnage on the way back though.

Only done Malaga, Murcia and Almeria and no big queues since scanning introduced. Bigger delays coming back into UK.

Just on that subject of clubs supplying staff with cars, I’ve always wondered why Bayern Munich supply their staff with Audis (glorified VWs and Skodas) rather than BMW that has its HQ is in Munich. Unless there’s been a corporate fallout in the past.

Audi own 10% of Bayern.
VW own Wolfsburg outright
Merc own 10% of Stuttgart I think

Oh no. it seems there are delays due to an issue with NATS [no, not those ones] so I hope you aren't too affected.

EDIT: Just read your post and you were lucky it seems.

I can never understand folk having noisy conversations on the phone on a packed bus. Its rude as feck for one thing and nobodys wants to hear your life story. Oh for the days when you just said im on the bus and will call back when im off the bus. Folks lack of self awareness is frightening. My son will not answer the phone on the bus.

My new favourite bar/cafe here now has signs on every table telling folk speakerphone calls, YouTube videos etc are banned.
Hoping to find one banning loud American voices 😉

Get a Brother of the Brush in hen and get that front door sorted.
