Bags of white powder seized as part of a "huge drugs bust" at London's Gatwick Airport actually contained vegan cake ingredients, the British Transport Police said.

A member of staff at Purezza, a vegan restaurant with stores in London and Brighton, was transporting a suitcase filled with bags of cake mix when it was seized by police Wednesday afternoon.

    When I was standing in line in Melbourne Airport last year awaiting my flight the American lady in front of me asked the Customs bloke if she should take her shoes off yet.

    He replied, with typical Aussie bluntness, "no, why the hell would you do that"?

    When I went to Singapore the year before the immigration guy at the counter did not even look at my passport as he stamped it, he smiled at me and said "Welcome to Singapore, enjoy your stay".
