I'm afraid we rather over ran your thread with bad cheese jokes

No problem, no need to apologise, as long as I'm not being ignored

If you are bored!

I've always thought the search at airports relies too much on the metal detectors. When I've been body searched, it's more like a pat down.

I got a great lesson in frisking when I was in the RN. We were invited to frisk one of our colleagues. 22 of us frisked this guy and found nothing. The instructor then frisked him properly and pulled out rounds of ammunition, detonator cord, detonators, and semtex. To say we were surprised was an understatement . I understand though that proper searches would lead to 6 hour queues for each plane. I presume the searches serve more as a deterrent than an effective security screen.

I got "patted" by a big butch woman last time...my earrings set the alarm off...she was really rough..scared the hell out of me
certainly would put me off trying to sneak anything through

Oh dear does this mean I'm being picked on?

Let's just say it's not possible to have 100% security, if you could, nothing would ever move, but doing your job to the best of your ability is all you can do. Although I agree there are poeple who just don't care, as long as they get paid at the end of the month nothing else matters. Until something goes wrong of course.

no we try not to pick in people here...but like everything sometimes we have scraps between researchers..it's best just to until its all over.
btw WELCOME to hootoo

on people must check before i post

Thanks for the welcome back, it’s nice to chat to you.

I still haven’t sussed what this site is all about yet, but I guess I’ll get the hang of it eventually.

I've been here 5 years and I'm still finding new stuff

WOW five years, there must be something good about it then.

there are people here who have been here 6 or 7 years since it was first set up. people seem to leave and come back. it's great fun, you'll find a lot of support here if you are going through a rough time, and we meet up in real life sometimes. usually have a bad head next day

I have to go .might catch you later

Sounds good. I guess you’ve just converted me to stick around then. That didn’t take much arm-twisting did it.

Okay, hope to speak to you again. Take care.

Here's one place you *have* to visit:

Good evening weirdos,

No... I'm not doing the nightshift, I'm at home now, but thought it would be best to use this thread instead.

God I'm so efficient don't ya think.

As always all abuse is more than welcome.

why hello weirdos?

Just gets attention, please don't take it to heart

We're not all weird, I'm sure. (mind you, if you met me you'd very likely think me weird, and you'd be right)
