Immigration & customs people

Having been to Aus many times on biz, and having often been searched by customs, and interrogated by immigration on the way in, - (but with smiles most of the time) I warned SWMBO about this on our way over to Aus on hols earlier this year..

So what happened ? - The smiliest immigration person ever, world wide, and a few questions from a lovely lady at the carousel while we waited for our bags.
That was it. We were in.....................best ever entry to a L/H destination.

(Maybe I should have taken SWMBO on biz trips?

..................but then we got to the Hire car desk. Huh! Great impression of Aus ruined...............
