I was flying into gatwick tonight and we ended up at least 70nm off track from the timba arrival, overhead Margate. We heard lots of traffic trying to get to LCY - no arrivals because they’d run out of space on the ground, and no departures because the LTMA was already full with aircraft avoiding weather.

Props to any LTMA ATCOs reading this - they were doing a good job in a very challenging situation, with aircraft literally all over the place, going into vastly different sectors than they were planned for which must up the workload significantly.
