Seat 27G in the small, forward (only 5 rows) World Traveller (Economy) cabin.
Boarding the blue mood-lit Boeing 777-200 back to LHR.
The IFE was fairly responsive but it infuriates me how BA only load 2 or 3 episodes of a 10-episode strong series. You get into it only to realise you can't watch the rest!
BA's first Economy meal service. This was absolute dire and had a synthetic, soapy taste. It consisted of an inedible cous-cous or farofa style starter with olives and mixed vegetables. A tomato and cheese pasta main (this was really awful!), a bread roll that was still frozen, some crackers and a piece of dubious cream cheese, a very bland 'school-style' chocolate cake and a 250ml bottle of Harrogate Spring still water. This was an appalling offering and we didn't receive anything else for a further 8 hours.
Then breakfast arrived, I opted for the full English breakfast. I ate it because I was so hungry but it was equally poor. The whole meal was swimming in fat (see below). It was accompanied by a fresh fruit salad (two pieces of watermelon and two pieces of pineapple) and a marmalade muffin. This was served with a glass of orange juice (probably the best thing on the tray!).
Should an English breakfast be served with this much fat?!
