  • Travel Tips

    Frank from Alabama says that he uses Velcro on his
    trouser pockets.

    He also carries a wallet in his back pocket. It
    contains two dollars, that is two one dollar bills, between them he
    has newspapers cut to same size everything in a plastic bag.

    In the bag he has Swiss Blue, a chemical, when it
    comes into contact with hands etc. it turns a very bright
    blue/purple. It will ruin clothing and anything else that it
    touches.

    Nothing too good for the thieves is his motto!
