Finally through security at Heathrow…

Why is it that, in a potentially time pressured environment, do the security people stand around chatting?

My briefcase was put to one side for greater scrutiny as I had apparently too densely packed my gadget power packs (into a single zipped pouch).

That's fair enough but I had to wait 5 minutes for the shift change and another 5 whilst the new person confirmed with another about meeting for lunch and something about last night's Corrie (East Enders?)... what do I know - they mentioned some character names that didn't ring any bells anyway...

Sheesh - all I wanna do is get on the flight-side to get breakfast and more importantly coffee!!

Speaking of which, here it is... See you State-side.
