New Rules For Taking Liquids Through Uk Airports

What exactly travellers can and can not take through airport security has been a confusing matter since restrictions were imposed.The Department for Transport has published a guide to the new regulations and has other advice to help intending travellers.

The Department put up full-page advertisements in the newspapers last week.Supposedly to intimate people with the state of affairs regarding the issue.Good on them.

Brits Abroad

It has come to my knowledge that tourists from Britain have been making away with road signs from a particular small town in Austria. The local authorities there are obviously at their tethers end. It all has to do with the town`s name:Fucking.

Drastic measures are now being employed to ensure that the traffic signs stay where they belong and not end up stolen by visitors to keep as souvenirs.

Wonder what the Welsh would say about this.Heavens know they have some long,wild sounding placenames. Have to admit nothing beats Fucking in the embarassment stakes for a place to come from.Imagine little Angelica showing off to her nursery friends where she went with mummy and daddy over the weekend. Less said the better
