You should pop across to T5 one of the days. You will love it if they have a newbie on the x-ray scanner.
It took one hour for me to pass though the metal detector then wait while 'security' then proceeded to empty some other poor sods case then my own crew case of every last piece of its contents. The 'operative' stopped mid sentence from asking me if I was going somewhere nice on holiday as my aircrew ID and stripes were removed from the case.
The thing that surprised me was how absolutely nothing was left in the case, the cause of the false alarm? - A single Lynx shot spray left at the bottom. - Well, i feel safer now anyway. At least the rescan of the case, explosives sweep of said case and liquid test of everything in the magical sealable bag came bag negative. A relief.
Security is one thing lately that as a professional, is really, really, starting to get under my skin!
