Sad to say its true, except that it was only 2 pax but the two were not travelling together. It all kicked off this morning 0830 but was soon sorted despite the accounts on TV.

At the security point at BFS there is a big glass dispay case of all the contraband they have intercepted there, knives, steel combs, hundreds of items. Many of us must have seen it there. So why the fuss about 2 pax at STN? Surely that is just security likewise doing their daily job of finding the stuff. or is there something more to this?
