We left Auckland just before midnight tonight. On the way through security I was picked randomly and had my hand luggage swabbed for explosives (or traces thereof).
I had a last minute change of heart and used my little sling bag today … if I had used my daypack, I would have been in trouble. I had used the daypack on an outing in Yemen. Three packs of AK47 bullets fell out of their boxes and rattled inside that bag for half a day.
Hhmmm … anyone know how to remove gunpowder traces so I can render that bag useable again for flying?
