Landing at Gatwick airport after an uneventful flight (been on one you have been on them all in 'pigs and chickens' class) we stood waiting for the luggage.I am sure it caught another flight as it took so long to get to us.As my luggage appeared on the 'hurdy-gurdy' (a technical term for the baggage carrousel) I noticed they had been restyled by what I can only assume was a rabid chimp with a lump hammer!My heart sank shoulders slumped and all the blood in my body felt like it has been replaced by fire.If anyone has the misfortune/pleasure (delete as applicable) to own a BMW motorbike they will know any part for these bikes requires a mortgage to purchase.Panniers are no different, I had to re-mortgage the house, sell a kidney and sign over my remaining organs in the event of my death just to afford these, and BA in their wisdom had let the afore mentioned chimp lose on them.
I immediately called the BMW hotline, which had become somewhat lukewarm over the last few days, and was told that it was nothing to do with them, and they couldn't care less!This didn't affect my mood at all, being the calm and rational person that I am, but I noticed Amanda was just that little bit further away from me expecting some sort of explosive outburst.
Moving on, it was time to collect the hire car to take us home.
