My daughter and granddaughter went on holiday early this morning. I got a text from my daughter this afternoon to say they'd arrived safely etc. She also said Laura was "randomly" picked for a security search at Manchester airport and was frisked (she was only wearing a vest top and calf-length jeans, nowhere to hide anything) and made to remove her shoes and socks which were then scrutinized. Dozens of adults went through without any hinderance while she was being searched.
Nik said Laura looked very scared but she managed to convince her it was exciting rather than scary. Oh, Laura is 8 years old and was getting on a holiday charter flight to Greece.
