That's costly!
In the USA at the same cost, you can park for couple of days in airport long-term parking lot.

In India, you could get your car get serviced for that kinda money. 
OK, I may be exaggerating a little, but you get the point.

My dad picked us up from Manchester airport earlier in the year, £15 they charged him for parking whilst waiting (just over 2 hours).
It took an age for our luggage to come through, although it was late at night and no other plane coming in that I could see.
I suspect they add in delays at various stages just to make more from car parking.

Young Padwa you have much to learn.
Never EVER enter an airport car park until the very last minute. I would recommend for all of Heathrow landing + 45 minutes if there's no baggage or baggage in hall + 30 otherwise. If you've both got mobiles, the bestest bet is to meet at the passenger drop off as it is free [or was a month ago].

Luton [Gateway to Paradise] also charges to drop people off, but it's cheaper IIRC than the short term car park.

East Mids has been doing it for years, but if you spend more than ten minutes there you get £100 fine.

Princess landed a little late and we live too far from Thiefrow to have made it practical for her to call me when she was outside. I'd probably not have found her because she might have gone anywhere outside. She once came to collect me one evening from Joburg airport and she drove past the flipping thing and only realised it when she saw signs to Pretoria. It takes a lot of talent to drive past an airport without knowing it but she pulled it off.

Thanks.
I confused myself between the thinking of the clue and the typing out of the clue!

Yeah, because happiness is all about money, innit?

You beat me to it well and truly, but I take consolation I solved it as well. First one in yonks.

It was the 'umble word I latched onto and that steered me to the answer before the anagram itself.
It also reminded me of Uriah Heep's album Very 'eavy Very 'umble that I had in the 70s.
