i go pakistan quite regulary as my family have a villa there so its a shame not to use it etc... but i'm sure the yanks lookin at that will be like hmmmm

Did he get a refund?

I remember back when we had all the IRA goings on I used to travel to Ireland quite a lot and I got some funny looks comng back through customs. They used to analyse the contents of my luggage too. The bit which really amused me was the questonnaire - occupation? purpose of visit? Like I'm going to put 'terrorist', 'collection of bomb'
