I wonder why....

[1ozzy]

Well, once upon a time I was training on a regular basis TTT, but then I became wealthy enough to own a motorcar, motorcycle, and or two.
God forbid, plebs that can afford their own transport.
Heavens above, what is this world coming to.
We are doomed I say, doomed!!

[1ozzy]

Why was TTT's answer removed?
Over zealous mod trying to save his ***?
Once again?

[piggynose]

where does it say in the airport/airplane rules, can you not bring aboard an unexploded Bomb? lol

[Peter Pedant]

pig-pog it is unlawful ( = a criminal offence) even to joke about it!

Randy Andy did in his quieter phase and there were squawks even then

This was a problem apparently in the SerboCroat civil war - god knows what the proper name is - Srebrebica time - people taking unexploded ordnance into their houses

Ay hev a training mortar on my hearth. Painted red. this shows LIVE now. However once the dummy rounds were painted RED and the live rounds something else. Changed mid 1940 - that must have been fun! and yes the serbo croat who was visiting went off his trolley

[Peter Pedant]

agree lozza
you see MAABOF and think o god one of them again....

[Peter Pedant]

As for ( oops) taking things home
They are swapping prisoners out there.
One luckless (clueless) engineer is in an Iraqi jail because they found 12 potsherds in his luggage on his way out ( airport) and he got charged with smuggling artefacts

god knows what his defence was - - yes I did it

export of antiquities has been forbidden for at least 50 y

Even with King Tut 1926 the Egyptian govt said - these are clearly ours and the Brits said yes....

I dont know what they are thinking of when they do it
