They seemed to have no actual grasp of the law and precious knowledge of the legislation pertaining to UKBA and seizures etc.<br /><br />Most worryingly they seemed to have bought the hogwash that anyone bringing back more than the guidelines is automatically a smuggler and that it was all your own fault-that staying within the guidelines would guarantee non-seizure! <br /><br />Bunch of noddys.SBChttp://nospam.comnoreply@blogger.com
