How many diggers did you wear out digging all those buttons ? LOL
These finds are still in England going through the evaluation and export process. I brought last springs finds home with me though. I put them in my carry-on. On a side note, the inspectors at the airport were non too happy to see some of the stuff in my bag of finds. With heightened security going on, they were inspecting things very closely. Well, in my bag of finds, I had an old crusty and dirt filled toy cannon barrel. You would have thought I was trying to take a nuke onboard. I spent an extra hour in secondary before a supervisor with some sense made the decision to let me keep it and go on my way. Jeeez, they let people on board with metal canes, snow boards, and other similar stuff, but, a toy cannon barrel 5 inches long is alarming? What's the difference in that over a ball point pen or e-cigarette? One of the security people told me....."don't ever bring that into England again". I could barely keep from laughing when I told her I didn't, that I found it there and had the export documents (that I'd already shown her 3 times) in hand to prove it. She was incredulous and dumb-struck with an absolutely stunned look on her face. What kind of idiots are running these airports? Next time, ANYTHING that looks dangerous in any way is going in my checked bag.
