Thank you. 10-15 minutes in an aircraft toilet once the seat belt signs are off. I should cocoa! You're lucky if you get 2 minutes before someone starts banging on the door.
And why are the long suffering traveling public being made to believe that this is all something new? Long before the internet came along kids knew how to make this stuff and more. I remember my brother getting a sound hiding from my father for mixing fertiliser and sugar to blow up rabbit holes in next door's field. That was 30+ years ago but similar mixes have been used since in car and truck bombs. I don't see a worldwide ban on buying fertiliser or sugar - do you?
None of this is new. It seems to me that the actions of three (4 if you count the shoe bomber) mental retards have been leaped upon by a government desperate to provide some kind of logical reason for it's actions in Iraq and Afghanistan and the fact that 'Broon' and his predecessor 'Blurr' were content to play lapdog to Bush - between them responsible for the quite unnecessary paranoia that followed 9/11.
The result is what we see now at Heathrow and other UK airports. It's totally unacceptable and it's about time the Great British Public drags itself away from its nightly diet of TV reality shows and sundry escapism, faces up to the cold hard world AND DOES SOMETHING ABOUT IT!
And Britain wants to host the Olympics?
