Too bad there's no USO at Heathrow; those places are a Godsend. Howi, do you think the military ID would work any magic on the folks at the Admiral's Club across the pond? I hate pulling that one... maybe if I'd been over in the sandbox or on some semblance of a hardship tour I'd be more inclined to lay claim to a favor or two.

Thanks for all the tips, nevertheless. Hope we can find something to do for several hours!
