"Is this your pillion passenger, Sir?"
"No, sorry, never seen him before in my life!"
I remember going to Switzerland by coach via Dover
Custom fella got on shouted is everybody English we all shouted yes
And that was it never any checks
In fact it was a total wast of time having a passport
Similar going from Austria into Italy on a coach tour back around 1969.
Austrian guide: "When we get to the Italian checkpoint, an official will come on board. When he does, everyone please wave your passports in the air"
He did, we did, he grunted and got off, and that was it!
