Re: re. UK airport security

*L*

well to be honest there is some truth in that... prepare to be bored...

long time ago i cant remember which king ordered that his kingdom be measured out etc and they asked from where shall we measure he went to one of the nearest high mounds and said here - a mound of heathland and the nearest village was heathrow... so geographically back in the day b4 sat nav etc that was what everything was measured into - not sure if that had a part to play when heathrow airport was built...
