confiscations at customs has been going on for ages - especially at Shanghai Pudong..... I got a SPATULA confiscated FFS!
Ok, so I admit it looks a bit like a knife - but it's blunt and flimsy.....what was I going to do? Bludgeon or smooth someone to death with it? Or perhaps I was going to spend an hour in the toilets sharpening it in the floor tiles???
to be, or not to be, what was the question?

that should be confiscated on the grounds of being daft.
Sabrina, don't just stare at it. Eat it.

I suppose it is a bit daft! Don't u carry a spatula at all times? Actually, I get away quite lightly with confiscations at scareports...If I were customs, I'd stop me and check everything every time....a small part of usual bag contents are:

I wish the fookers would start confiscating The Strife when she comes on a plane with me
Her mouth is a weapon of pain and torture
I take under performing to new lows...

I carry similar stuff Jay but it's the fine white ceramic opacifiers that cause most fun with customs.......
You used to speak the truth.
But now you're clever.

Or heavy petting sessions in Central East?
.
The problem with instant gratification is that it takes too bloody long...

Fundy - of course! Didn't you know that these protective suits are essential when petting 'chickens' anywhere?

Cheers LT - will have a gander at the China Visa Blog.

Last week I applied at the China Visa Office for a multi visa so I could see bus uncle, but I was only offered a two visit visa.
I didn't bother handing over my cash because it will take time (I would say about 2 more weeks) for them to wake up and ok a more workable system.
I would put all business plans that need a physical visit on holding pattern until 1st of May.

Wonder if the cross-border tunnel (drainage) network is still running?
On second thoughts, you'd get into SZ, then almost immediately end up in an SZ hospital with Hep or summat!
