When I used to commute to and from Munich, it was a piece of piss getting through Stansted with mobiles and laptops.....when coming back though, they always used to make us power up our laptops.....bearing in mind this was knocking on for 15 years ago as well, it would take an absolute age to get us through. So it's not a new thing, thankfully electrical devices tend to boot up in a matter of seconds now

How the fuck is security a joke

 

I work in a industry that's needs to be looked after properly so having to wait in line to enter the site putting an extra 10 minutes on my journey isn't the be all and end all, set off earlier...........fucking simples

Gonch, it might also be worth you remembering to fully charge your Fistmaster 5000 when you're flying as well, you wouldn't want it confiscating.

I've opted for the new deluxe travel edition now mate.

 

It's got a back up solar powered battery and folds away into in little carry case.

 

There's less traction on the hammer setting but the gear changes are just as smooth as the 5000.

 

I spotted the advert in What Fist? Magazine the other month.

Could you imagine the fit people would have if something happened? People would complain that their council tax wasn't properly spent on security!

 

It is a ball ache when going away but Imo a necessity these days.

I'll have to look at that publication, Fisters Weekly has gone right downhill of late

I flew Friday. Got all my liquids took out of my clear bag I brought them in, crammed into a tiny clear bag at security. Then got a bollocking for taking a curling wand and had my bag searched then another bollocking for texting on my phone whilst waiting in the queue. Oh then the cash machine swallowed my bank card once past security, was fun.

There are big fuck off signs including pictures for the hard of thinking for no phones and or cameras in all security halls. If you maybe had heeded the warnings then they might not have been as shitty with you

Why are you allowed to travel on the tube without being searched then? Surely we should be extra careful. If you need checkin for planes then surely you do for all travel.

Because 2 wrongs don't make a right?

You mean you have to put your phone away for 10 minutes, how will people survive. I get the impression that peoples heart would stop if they don’t have their phones in their hands 24/7 :phone:

Should we add buses, trams and trains to that list, people to search you at every stop, we would have no unemployment that’s for sure

I know it would get mad. but surely if we have had an attack on the tubes we should check there......going off that logic no attack on a uk plane means there is no threat.

Pedantic homosexual behaviour from you.

You cant fly a tube train into a building. A plane is most risky as it becomes a flying bomb which the terrorists could fly into anywhere they choose unless it gets shot down.

Why are they so obsessed about planes? Plenty of other places to create havoc without going to so much trouble. Such as Old Trafford.

I couldn't think of anything worse than that place.

Guy said to me a while ago, if they are suicide bombers - why not just detonate in the check-in queue, or the queue for security. Certainly makes me think when I am checking in now.
