coming through Gatwick yesterday,my hand luggage through the scanner,guy says "whose is this?"
mine i say --come here he says--opens up and waves his sniffer wand around ,then takes out a jar of Branston pickle-hmmm whats this? is it cream?.is it a paste? .is it a liquid?
don't know so we will confiscate anyway-ok fair enough

go to take my bag and he says -that is'nt why we stopped you -the bag is showing traces of EXPLOSIVES!!! WTF -are you serious? :shock: :shock:

calls over a colleaque who uses his sniffer wand and says ,nothing wrong with that your wand must be faulty

meanwhile O.H is having a full pat down ,only 2 bits of metal on her --bra clasp & trouser clip!

should have worn a Burgha

Do you know Kaz, I set the alarm off every single time I go through. I only have the wires in my bra and my wedding ring too. I don't understand it. I am sick and tired of having pat-downs!
