Kate, you are a treasure! I'm pretty sure I might travel
across state lines to help someone out, but to cross
international borders??? Not so much. The dress will be
fabulous, Ursula is so fortunate for your help.

There's probably as little fuss crossing borders within the EU as there
is with crossing state borders. Passports are read electronically, and
it takes seconds. The getting stuff on and off the sircraft is the hard
part, and I bet your security is as dotty and Jobworth as ours...
It was a good project to do, and we both learned all sorts of good
things. :)

The easy crossing of borders part here is true, except it
doesn't usually entail crossing a largish body of water
unless we on the mainland are going to Hawaii or Alaska.
;-)
And yes, our airport security is a very large PITA! I
always arrive at the airport at least two hours before
flight time. I have never yet taken more than 30 minutes to
clear security, but it would be the one time I didn't allow
the extra time that some frekazoid would pull some stunt and
make the whole place shut down.
Awaiting the arrival of the luggage is usually the most
exasperating part of air travel. Well, that and being
seated to Typhoid Mary...

We're an island race... The North Sea is only a wee splash! ;)

Or some Jobsworth fail to listen to a passenger...

I have a friend who is co-ordinator for her health autority's TB
stuff... They get a TB case, she sees it (usually an Asian or Eastern
European person who regularly flies home to visit grandma), and then she
has to start a Contact List with everyone on the flight... Some of whom
have gone on to other international destinations from Heathrow!

Hectic but relaxing at the same time. I didn't have time to worry about
much else, and no physical way to fix any problems at home, so I could
just concentrate!
