Yes I've noticed from earlier posts how you clock up the miles! I don't blame you for missing out this time to be honest. Just enjoy the rest and a break from driving. (I presume that's how you come to the Amex, it's a difficult journey to make by rail).
Yep, W1G is completely full already, so my regular seat in that block has already gone, (my fault for not grabbing it yesterday), now sitting in W1C so still central and will make a nice change just for this one game.
