Well done Scott. Too bad about the sandwiches.

I've never seen a spork in one of those sharp objects bins at the airport, but I did once see a cheese grater. This raises 2 awkward questions:-1. Who thought that it was essential to take a cheese grater in their hand luggage when going on holiday? ("Beach towel? Check! Sun cream? Check! Cheese grater? Check!")2. How long would it take a terrorist to grate a plane-load of passengers into submission?
Just bizarre.

thanks chrisyes, i purchased a small pack of bacon bites to pop in with the cheese and meat at the local garage the night before.... its always the way. had i made then up the night before as i had scheduled and not left them in kit format there is a fair chance that they would have been packed away in my rucksack that night! when i say sandwiches, they were actually tortilla wraps; which i have found to be more practical on such events. i said sandwiches as force of habit as these are what i would have taken in the pre-wrap fashion days. the use of the word 'sandwiches', i feel also keeps me more in tune with the people. i promise you captain, this WILL NOT happen again.

Scott - an easy mistake to make. I hope it didn't spoil your weekend.
