I'll soon be arriving for a 3 day visit, travelling from Thailand. Watching these Border Force type programs in the UK it seems I could be a target for increased customs scrutiny. I won't have anything dodgy, except perhaps a belly full of beer, but what sort of delays should I expect under normal circumstances and also if I'm held for inspection?
I think if Border Force read this and can track you down, they'll be giving you a very thorough examination!!

Drugs, food and working illegally are the things they are looking at. Don't bring the first, declare the second and be prepared to evidence what you will be doing with your time. Saying you are going to work interviews would probably raise a red flag.
