Just getting bags ready to pack and find some of the zippers don't have the double runner thingy to enable the zip to be padlocked. Last time to Bali was pre-Schapelle so never bothered with locking (thanks a lot). I recall reading here some time ago some ways people dealt with this problem but cannot find anything archived. Thinking of supergluing the offending zippers ( they are only small outside pockets) closed and then attempting to open with acetone on return. I guess baddies could do the same but it would probably take them too long. Anybody got any thoughts on the effectiveness of doing this or any other ideas? Don't really want to have to get a whole new set of bags when there are six of us. Thanks all
