  PAULB;
  It's one of those dilema's do you stop everything and take precautions in case it is real and a terrorist threat, or do you just carry on in the hope it isn't whatever you do, you will be wrong in someones eyes.
  
  
  I always recall when i worked on british rail a suspect package on a train which had wires coming out of it.
  
  
  I recall the sgt of the railway police coming out seeing the package went to open it.
  
  i shouted hang on mate if your doing that i need time to get out of the way in case you get it wrong.
  
  
  99 times out of 100 you get it right, but that 1 time your lifes gone
  is it worth it? im afraid i call others i would never open one.
  
  
  
  but on the other side of the coin i recall a violin case being found at dover priory and this was in the height of the terrorist attacks so no chances were taken and the army bobm disposal called, very good to watch the remote controlled dog go through doors just as it got to the case just about to blow it up(remember all trains stopped, police everywhere, station cordoned off)
  a boy and girl come round the corner past priory hotel bemused they ak if anyone has seen her violin case, she was so perplexed after seeing what had gone on.
