Norwich and toothpaste

Well it would appear the authorities think shoe bombs can only be manufactured in the UK! I whent from East Mids on EZJET To Prague a month ago. Outbound had to take me shoes off etc etc , inbound shoes stayed firmly on me feet and the metal detector didnt pick up my lucky coin, a big commemorative coin for D-D landings! That i forgot was in that little pouch thingy in the right hand pocket of your jeans! They just gotta be seen to be doing something eh? On the same subject, did anyone notice after 9-11 they stopped planes intercepting the ILS for 27L at LHR. Reason was given that they didnt want planes flying over CENTRAL London, so every one would feel safe in Tony Land. They still had to intercept the ILS at Hammersmith giving about 7 or 8 miles to touchdown. Thing is if a typical airliner decided to go east instead of west at that point and accelerated to 300Kn or more, then Tony would have had about 1-2 minutes to decide to shoot it down or not! Only trouble was i dont remember hearing any military types on patrol and the SAMS were still in Stores as they couldnt afford the refit costs! Its Late Sunday night and i felt like a rant, sorry lads but hey, thats life
