Thanks George.
I have been travelling with I-R for over 25 yrs and never had a prob apart
from cold war Russia. Hand searching used to be easy but the days of that
have long since  gone - at Heathrow, Hamburg and other European cities that
have experienced terrorism at least. I always carry film and know that IR is
actually low risk, but the new scanners are said to be unsafe, and I know
that Heathrow security will insist on scanning or opening the canisters. It
would seem simpler to buy locally
Any ideas?
Tim
