and I found the customs crew more efficient than ever.I always declare my wood etc and I put everything in one bag so that its easier to get it all out for inspection.This time I was asked at the first desk what I was declaring and if I had read and understood all the questions.Then when i was called through to the inspection area I was asked to put all my gear through for x-ray.Then I had to pull it all out for them and then they called someone else over and I lost a few things that were hide and water hyacinth.I dont have a problem with it really as I dont want the problems here in Aus but I wa annoyed at myself for buying those products without realising.
