The thing is you have all been spoilt rotten by visiting the LHR Virgin CH, which is one of the best lounges in the world

It surpasses all business lounges I have ever visited and is better than most First lounges I expect.
When I found out my first BA First flight later this year was to be from LHR Terminal 3 rather than Terminal 5, and I would not get to visit the CCR, I was a bit disappointed but many have reassured me I was not missing much and some prefer the T3 Galleries First to the CCR. You can visit the First Lounge in T5 also if the CCR does not suit.
Anyway HL I am sure you are now in SA and having a great time. Just watch it if you are renting a car after the Californian saga ):
