Real and story
Hi all,
The initial post i made was the real experience. The second posted was a story I wrote for a few boards one of which required it to be true which is why I tagged on the bit about being a true experience. The story came after reading Annes story and the bits about the cavity search were inspired by her account as well as my other turn on medical exams and the exposure involved in those. Though being in UK the only exposure we get at medical exams routinely is the 3 year smear legs apart event (which is nice to look forward too). Hope that clarifies things.
What happens now during customs searches in UK is hard to know, I would love to talk to someone who has ben searched recently. I have seen the file high scene and wondered how accurate that is and whether they did any research for it. I recently saw an episode of Nothing to Declare UK and they had a women being strip searched and was innocent but they kept the mikes on so you heard it and the officer asking her to bend over and pull her cheeks apart before being asked to turn around and squat. I certainly did not have to do that. Also in UK there was a series called The Lock-Up I think and again strip searching a women and she was asked to squat. The recent series of Prisoners Wives also had a strip search scene and again she was asked to squat and a mirror was used. Not sure if the squat search which is common in other countries is not also used in the UK. Interesting thoughts anyway.
