we too are on the damn list....actually to be precise, Mr Pookie is on the list.  He attracts them every flipping visit......last week it was for a large bunch of keys.  Last year.......beggers belief really......We had bought, last minute, one of those lovely big jars of honey with nuts, and rather than put it in the suitcase, which we normally do, put it in the hand luggage (I Know, Stupid !).  So we get to the search man and were told to remove it.....' Eat now !' he demanded !  Well we like the stuff but a whole jar in five minutes between the two of us ?   So as we couldn't eat it, it was unceremoniously removed, we had our names logged in the naughty book and the jar was thrown in a rubbish bin two feet away from us.   So we walked five steps, into duty free and had to purchase another one..... we could still see the original jar waving at us from the flipping rubbish bin !

I like the name so I've changed the title to that  :)

I just remembered, I am also in it for "being in possession of an offensive stone" - Our little Robyn found a lovely red stone on Koca Calis beach, about 3" across and almost perfectly heart shaped. We left it when we moved back and we were out without them one time and thought we'd bring it back with us as a surprise. Our case was full so I put it in my laptop case.

Straight through the entrance security, job done - only to have it taken and binned at the gate security (now gone, thank God). I have never felt so gutted at the loss of something of no financial value whatsoever.

Last September we watched a couple being taken to one side whilst the lady's rather large toilet bag was taken apart. Every item was removed and put on the small table and she had to explain what everything was for.  As the guy did not speak English she had to demonstrate putting deodorant under her arms, putting moisturiser on her face, etc., She looked a very nice middle aged lady who  really should have put this big bag of toiletries in her suitcase, but she did not look like a terrorist threat.:(

Good advice from Highlander there Jacqui. Tell him to get a lighter out on the flight and try to set fire to his shoes too.
