The revitalized St Pancreas station in London has extra features for the traveling nomadic worker (and overworked commuter). In the waiting area, Antony Mayfield spotted a very long champagne bar (95 meters) with stools and power sockets in both UK and European flavors. He says:
Determined champagne lover though I am, it was a little early for me to be able to check that out. However, I was hugely impressed by what has to be the first transport hub in the UK I’ve seen that’s been designed for the needs of the laptop age, to wit a very, very long bar with stools and loads of power sockets in European and UK formats.

Alas the champagne bar is separate from the laptop bar… probably for the best, one should never drink and blog. :-)

Errrr, Piers, that would be St. PANCRAS station (not pancreas, which is one of the squishy bits deep inside us all). And a happy U.S. Thanksgiving to ya! (Canadian Thanksgiving was 5 weeks ago…)
