Maybe they won it on the horses

Airport police “why are you carrying so much cash?” emm cos I’m rich!

I think they were minding it for Bertie.

San Miguel must be getting expensive

So what happens with the ?40 K?

It was just “resting” in my suitcase, officer.

maybe they haven’t got bank accounts

Its mine give it back

The names bond, bond holder.

thats revenue and customs xmas party paid for

Yep gold chain ,,, I’m sure mr T had around 40,000 round his neck

Think you need a licence of some form to buy or move a gold bar around , just seen a program on BBC the other night and a guy went into a pawn shop with his chain and got 6500 pounds for the gold weight

They train drug dogs to sniff for cash now, get it in the form of a gold brick, no law against gold bricks

Probably on route to buy an apartment in Bulgaria! Oh that is sooo last decade !!!

This sort of thing is so unnecessary. Laser is being phased out.

The money was probably for something illegal. Also it is illegal to carry more than €10000 on the plane. Is there a legal way to carry lots of cash – cheques don’t count as they are traced and reported.

Stag weekend ruined !

Did I read correctly that these two men received 3 months without a trial? Great to see that natural justice is alive and well.
