We've got time to watch a movie!

I've had my grouses in the past about Birmingham International - my local airport - and I remember one occasion when we had to wait for just under two hours for our luggage to appear after a flight back from Majorca I think it was.  But perhaps I should thank my stars that my local airport is not Gatwick where apparently a two-hour delay would be pretty good.  Last weekend many people had to wait up to five hours to reclaim their luggage - and some in fact had to go home or fly off and leave their bags behind.  So what's the opposite to the saying "the grass is always greener..."? Whatever it is, it would be appropriate.
