Gawd Dangit. They just want you to shop everywhere. The newest retail assault is unfolding in Heathrow's airport spanking new Terminal 5. Aside from being packed with the usual suspects of Tie Rack, WH Smith, Accessorize and World Duty Free, new additions to the Bond Street Pack include the first airport terminal Tiffany & Co. shop, and a specially designed Paul Smith 'Globe' store.
But nevermind THAT. What gets the blood rushing and the stomach acids pumping is Gordan Ramsay's first airport venture, Plane Food. For the gastronome nomad, you can also opt for Krispy Kreme (who created a special Terminal 5 doughnut - I wonder if it tastes like lost baggage?) or the perennial student favourite, Wagamama (which incidentally means brat in Japanese - my grandmother used it on my little sister when we were tots)
Terminal 5 will also house travel spas by Elemis, who pioneered a similar formula for Bergdorf Goodmans, Harvey Nichols and Nordstroms. What I want to know is why they wasted such efforts on BA snobs. Spoken like a true blue Virgin fan. Hey, they give you rubber duckies on board.

I think wagamama means greedy or glutton.
Harllooooo... didn't realise you had a blog until now :)
Are you still with the shoe company in Klang or have you moved on to greener pastures?
Had a meeting with the Spanish boss today. Finally getting the wheels in motion after so long!!
