    What size bag do I need to take kit on a plane

    I didn't know that. I think, however, that not all airlines, or airports/national aviation regulators, follow IATA guidance. I've taken six flights this year, and on most of those, when checking in my hold baggage, I was asked to confirm there were no electronic devices in it. I did...

    What size bag do I need to take kit on a plane

    I wouldn't take the risk. They are paranoid about lithium batteries and the penalties are high. I know of someone who took a small tin of flammable glue in checked baggage, which is against the rules. They spotted it on the scanner, cancelled his flight, fined him 12000 euros and banned him from...

    What size bag do I need to take kit on a plane

    I'm guessing they were suspicious of a number of batteries but not the device they power. Since all electronic devices must go in hand luggage, if it's in the checked bag (and I guess the scanner missed it there) they won't know about it. Also, without the light, it's not possible to put the...

    Bernie's under new ownership!

    There's not much difference between cafe and cave, only one letter, and F and V are quite similar in many languages; F in Welsh is pronounced very like V in English.

    Ladders are best

    I think the problems from HSE's viewpoint would be that there's nothing stopping them falling out of the bucket, and the hydraulics on the loader won't have been fitted with the kind of failsafe systems that a machine designed to carry people would have, so they could have been tipped out or the...

    Based on your clues, I was looking for a family relative, aka kin. Nothing pointed to Long Kin of any compass direction, but the image has aspects of a complex (hard?) drawing, and the woman could be described as having hard, drawn look. She has something in a pot, which I couldn't identify and...

    The website you linked has an address in Paignton - are you sure it's the same Bernie's?

    Small mammal to greasy slab

    True. I had actually prefaced that in my notes with "The scaffolding on the left is Stile Pot" which would define the orientation.

    Small mammal to greasy slab

    I've just looked at the notes I wrote after doing it: "the way on is on right, a downward crawl then down climb to Flowstone Chamber". My memory of the crawl (which will be less accurate the my contemporaneous notes and could be of another part of the cave) is that it started with a short...

    What size bag do I need to take kit on a plane

    Trying to hide it would be the worst option. You'll have to take it off to go through the metal detector and they will be suspicious about why you were carrying something in an unusual way. Bum bag would be good for things you might plausibly need on the flight. As well as hand baggage, you're...
