Good advice (your YouTube)--- for anyone traveling abroad--- Spy or not.

What many don't realize its the small details that give us way ..... like eating with your left hand holding the fork inverted-- I had to work on that one............. grins.

My father taught us that when we were kids.

We were bringing back a new aircraft from Toulouse to New Zealand and were met by an Air France rep in Luxor, Egypt for refuel and overnight. The rep said do not take anything except a small overnight bag off the aircraft and DO NOT take any cellphones. An armed guard was posted at the aircraft and we were all patted down and our bags searched by the army - somebody, one of our crew, (no names, rank or number!) had his cellphone in his bag. His excuse was that the battery was flat and he was taking it to the hotel to charge it. The searcher hunted around under his desk and found what he was looking for - a big hammer with which he smashed the cellphone and gave it back to the owner along with his passport and said something in Egyptian and all the army guys laughed.

It’s been on UK TV that the gangs who are charging 4000 to people who want to get into the UK on a boat are ……… Albanian!

Somebody is paying the $4,000, my guess is it isn't the people actually coming over, but someone is paying for it, and they probably expect to be paid back (somehow). I'm trying to keep a sensitive subject................ sensitive...

Thanks

I would have too


When traveling officially to "sensitive" places I was often afforded the courtesy of the use of official diplomatic pouch's. Most items I placed in them would hardly be suspect, but this did save me many a headache passing thru customs.

Spy gear? Rofl. To me comms uses by spies would be frequency hopping radios with military grade ENC way beyond AES. This is almost cartoonish......

To be honest when I was in London I found it hard to find palatable food. I did find a Shawarma shop and it was excellent. Left my sterling flatware at home, I ate with my hands.
