Holy crap. People really are fucking bastards. Also, it's lucky you left yesterday, [livejournal.com profile] daegaer, or you might have been trapped at Heathrow.

Yes! As it was, my handluggage was taken at check in. People on earlier flights were having theirs taken at the gates, so I must have been there for the start of the crackdown.

Ugh. Damn crazy people. :( So, did they search it and then put it in the hold?

Glad you got back safely! Thanks so much for the brown mustard sachets, and you'd better have taken those straws!!

They just insisted it got checked - I suppose whatever happens to hold luggage after if it whisked away happened to my random books of manga and the other stuff shoved in there!

I have the straws! I had to leave something equally odd in return!

(And I'm the world's laziest person. I've only been dressed for about 40 minutes and having been nibbling on brunch like items left for me by my mother. Mmmm).

I found myself thinking something similar: good thing I got clear of the airport circuit, period, on August 2. Good grief.

Man, it was so painfully inevitable that this kind of shit would go down, what with Blair and Bush cheerleading the bombing of Lebanon. Way to increase the threat of terrorism, guys. Thanks a fucking BUNCH. No, really. Thanks.

I'm glad daegaer missed the worst of this. I am, however, all kinds of pissed off about the fact that it will likely have an impact upon my own flight out of Heathrow on the 15th.

People are seriously trying to set of Armageddon here.

But go Scotland Yard!

Thank heavens they caught it before mass murder really did occur. Still, this sort of thing makes me sad for the state of humanity.
