That’s what he typed 
Have you had the conversation yet?
Yes, he’s not entirely convinced it was his truck. And tbh, I’m not sure if I am now.
It’s just bizarre. It could only have happened at work or within a few hours when I was parked outside my house on Sunday. Every other time I’ve parked, it’s been nose in with no way to hit the front of my car.
Flew norwegian.
Firstly, landed so hard that it actually physically hurt, like my back aches.
Secondly, Someone in baggage handling has gone through my bag and stole my Vans.
So I now have to spend the evening buying new shoes.

Shoes covered by the airline?
Sadly, if you don’t notice until you are outside the baggage hall (which is generally the case with a case - pardon the pun), the airlines won’t look at any claim.
I had a couple of events with a zipped cases (Travel Pro, so good brand), where the zip had been popped at the bottom & items removed. The zip had been almost “put back” so no easily visible signs of disturbance.
After the second one, I went to a hard sided, lockable, case.
Spoke to Norwegian, need to submit a receipt and theyll refund
Looking through Amazon for travel stuff, I saw that you can now easily buy the keys which open the ‘TSA’ type combi locks. This will make it easier for the scrotes to enter our cases.
Yeah I’ve never really trusted those locks.
I just have a webbing style strap that wraps and ties around the case.
Easy to cut off/untie if anyone who should needs to open and inspect but would take long enough or be obvious enough to deter anyone who shouldn’t.
Also means should the zip fail while it’s thrown about there’s something else to hold it closed

Thankfully, we have no obligation to use such locks! You can use a normal padlock if you like. But be prepared for it to be cut off if they really want to check your bag…
The easiest solution is a bunch of cable ties. It’s enough of a deterrent for someone who’s just snooping. Reduces the risk of the bag coming undone on its own. And if security need to check your bag, they can easily cut them off, and then put new ones on once they’re done!
This probably doesn’t help in Alex’s situation though, as it was likely someone who had free access to all the bags anyway 
My new listing Vans from Airport Size 9

Gov alert testing happening when we got a training camp planned for 100+ pers
On the way back from Peru I used 3 locks; 2 padlocks with keys and a TSA code lock that had been left behind by a former manager.
I’m not sure whether it happened in Huanchaco, Lima or Bogota, but the TSA lock had been opened using the code whilst the key-based locks were left alone. Luckily, nothing was missing as they had only been able to access the pocket where I stored my wash kit.
Don’t k ow what you’re worried about, they’d an Airshow at Duxford that day 
Responsible adult that I am, I switched of my charger when leaving the block yesterday AM.
This morning I’ve woken up to an uncharged phone.
D’oh
Got stung by the same wasp 4 times. Im now patchy
Gmg…need to fly to cologne in Nov for work. But the flight times are making it really awkward and might need to come home early from a staycation.
Unless any of you flyboys want to chauffer me from Southampton on a Tuesday from Southampton. I can provide percy pigs and a sense of humour.
Probably won’t help, but an 0900 train from St Pancras will get you to Köln HBF for 1415…
Possible to go a few times each day, 4 hours each way with a change in Brussels.
People who still say a rank after the last person when numbering off!
