...aaaand if the people monitoring their country's entryways, especially airports, are not only trained well but also do their job. Doesn't do much good to lock all the doors and leave the windows open.
BTW, I like your sigs, sonsie!
Thanks! It's fun browsing around for them. I have one that's a favorite, but women sometimes don't see the humor in it so I don't use it often. I like it purely for the humor and mental picture: "So you're a feminist...ain't that cute."
<sigh> I swear cww - since I realized you're in Greece, every time I see your name I get beautiful images of blue, blue water and hillsides lush with villages of white stucco leaning out over one another to catch a salty whiff of sea. I have lots of pictures of Greece from the webshots site that I use as my desktop. Love the food, too.
HANS Device = Head and Neck Restraint System. Created in the U.S.A. although it sounds German.
It's the one device that could have saved the life of Dale Ernhardt (not sure if I spelled his name correctly). Basically it protects racing car drivers from getting a basler or baisler (don't know the exact spelling) skull fracture which is 100% fatal.
Sonsie: here it's not the airports we have to bother about so much (need your passport or some form of ID for internal flights) - it's the seas. Seems that everyday there's reports of illegal immigants being intercepted - often because the smuggler's rickety old boat is in distress. Sooo much coastline.
"So you're a feminist...ain't that cute" - guess some folk can't see the irony(?) in it?
And just so you aren't toooo envious: today is Independence Day here - and it's just like a typical British bank-holiday weekend... cold and wet! Ah well, summer's coming
Andavari: couple of years ago we met an Australian-Greek racing driving out here, can't recall his name. Not sure if he was ex-F1 or not but he was well in to it. He'd been pretty badly smashed up in a racing crash. Still able to get around but he's never going to race again, for sure. I didn't like to ask about the gory details.
