Horatio, I know about the tanks. I check BBC news regularly... I just hadn't heard talk about shutting down the airport. That must mean the threat is very tangible...

Edit: I flew from Glasgow a couple of days ago. I don't know if there's a connection but the security sure had tightened. My bags were searched in and out (my main luggage on the way there, my purse and cabin luggage on the way back). I've flown the same route several times last year, but the security was never as strict as it was now. They checked passports more seriously too, no quick glance-overs.
