Last time I flew into Gatquick they were taking my bag off the
carousel as I arrived, I had stood still on the moving walkways
instead of walking along them and consequently arrived after all the
other passengers had collected their bags.

were on strike and about 9-10 flights were being served by (if I =
remember rightly) three carousels. The best part (apart from the barging =
and elbowing) was our parties' luggage appearing on all three of the =
