Tbf it's my own beef (pun intended) as I'm very anti McDonald's. :)

Publications: "We're looking for 3000 word, in-depth feature-like articles about cultural or travel phenomena -- think the kind of pieces that appear on BBC travel as a shorthand. No press trips. Pay 0.10 a word."

Also publications: "Here's some in-house nonsense about McDonald's or whatever"

My experience of flying in and out of Egypt is that they are VERY particular about things. Luke had a pack of batteries confiscated last time! 🤣

It's a really expensive case, so I don't want to leave it unless I have to. X

Huge crack through the middle (it's a hard shell case). I'm worried that when it inevitably gets chucked around again, it might split open.

Concerned a gaffer taped case might attract attention in an Egyptian airport 🤣🙈

That's what I'm thinking as much as much as I hate plastic wrap.
