hmm rather cautious than dead i think. i was shocked to find rubbish bins(trash cans <img src="images/graemlins/smirk.gif" alt="" />) in the airports in the us when i went over there, which was after 9/11. over here you don't get bins in airports train stations and the like. its down to all the PIRA attacks, the powers that be didn't want to give them anywhere to hide a bomb. and the public in britian tend to report bags and pacages left lying arround quite readily.
good thing that they checked it so well. over here on the odd occasion some tourist/stupid local/whomever leaves a bag lying about, comes back to find a chared mess where the bomb squad have been in and done a controlled explosion. they don't tend to mess about these days. hmm i have been rambling. bye
