She had taken a small water bottle with her but had failed to wash it out from its previous deployment as a milk bottle. The two fluids mixed and after 5 days in Mrs Nick's handbag, in the desert, the contents were not pleasant. Smuggling onto a plane was not a good idea and refusing, perhaps reasonably, to drink the contents to prove they were not combustible, threw her open to an accusation of being 'naughty' and a low level security operation involving some sort of sniffing machine.

OK?

Hard to tell but I suspect it is a case of like attracting like. ;)

Wouldn't you have to be a bit mental to hook up with someone like Nick?

After hearing some of the stories, I'm not daft enough to even consider questioning Mrs Nick's sanity.  scared2:

But surely NO-ONE ~ not even Mrs Nick ~ can have failed to notice that for at least four years there has been all hell let loose on the TV and in other media about not carrying liquids onto an aircraft and even then surely all the notices at the airports, the briefing notes provided by airlines with tickets etc etc would have alerted her. How dense do you have to be to miss that lot?
