Conspicuous ConsumptionHave you ever been photographed sat on a balcony eating a croissant; or wallowed in luxury just for the sake of it? What's the most ostentatious thing you ever seen or done?

Great storyAnd very well told, thanks. Unfortunately my only experience of Concorde is seeing it take off from Heathrow, as I was sitting in the elevated canteen across from the runway. Absolutely deafening, and we had a cacophony of car alarms going off for a while afterwards.

My only experience.Was when I was outside in the garden, and heard a low rumble that went on for a long while indeed. I knew this was the day of the last flights, so wondered.
It turns out it was as it was flying up the east coast of Scotland, maybe 50 miles away.
