Just something to keep in mind at Heathrow.

I got lucky then when I went through T4 security Tuesday of this week (5 February '13). My backpack is filled with electronics (i.e., laptop, mouse, cables, digital camera and lenses, shortwave/AM-FM radio, headphones, ipod, iphone). Did not have to undergo secondary screening or have to unpack my backpack (other than remove my laptop before putting it through the machine).
