I’ve been through a lot of security check points in the past 5 bionic years of airport travel, I’ve been prodded in New York, wanded in Washington DC, intimately viewed in Hawaii, and touched in San Francisco.

BUT…I have never been wanded, prodden THEN taken to a private room, and asked to show my hip replacement scars before…that was a first (in London, by the way).

So, down went my pants to present my surgery souvenirs to polite but perfect strangers.

I know the world is changing, with heightened security and all that it entails – however how much is too much?

I ask YOU!
