I was really expecting an improvement when the Buster's passed through. Sadly, what we saw and experienced was undeniably a shock! The only difference in the sub standard facilities on offer in Essex is a train, not a hike to the gate.
I am trying to think of something within the new terminal development that I liked..........Well I did have a laugh with the guy working at Travelex. He was about to keel over with heat exhaustion. You see on the day we passed through, the first floor of the terminal was a little warm, well it was horribly hot. This was probably done on purpose in order to dry out all the plaster and paint! It was just too hot for a bear in a fur coat!
Anyway, the Buster's are going to be passing through a few times over the next few months, so I eagerly await all the improvements.
