Unreasonable? Hmm, I can imagine their security being thight with the
possibility of IRA bombs exploding at Heathrow. Let's hope the peace
process will bring a brighter future for all parties involved.

I only flew out of Heathrow once and didn't think the security personnel
were arrogant at all. On the contrary very friendly indeed I'd say. No
problems or funny questions about my Leica gear either.
