All the fuss about what you could - and couldn't - carry on with you meant no more nail scissors. Now I just use the leader on the film and wind it round the take-up spool one extra time or so. It has incidentally affected my carbon footprint; I take trains internationally where I can and often drive. I fly far less than I used to.
