Reminds me of the time the "security" gits took my sunscreen bottle from me (which I had forgotten to take out of my bag that had previously been in hold baggage coming back from an Asian trip but now in hand baggage on an unexpected trip to the UK.
"No sir, no terrorist is going to get through on our watch", they beamed at each other. Then after passing security, I went to our crew room to drink the 2 cans of soft drinks I had also forgotten about (I'm so not a morning person) and were still in my hand luggage after going through the Xray machine..
Security in the UK is a joke, it is often rude and mostly ineffective.
Does Chirping have any effect at all? One of these days the security hassle is going to be the last straw and the final hole in the Swiss cheese, dus to the unnecessary stress and distraction that it causes.
Face it, the terrorists have won, big time.
