Are you so Irn-Bru daft that you couldn't possibly imagine going on a two-week holiday without the beloved orange drink?
This was allegedly the case for one Glasgow traveller who attempted to get 'Scotland's other national drink' through airport security.
A Twitter user, Ian Shaw who spotted the fizz lover described the moment she was pulled for a secondary bag search which revealed that she had attempted to empty a big bottle of Irn-Bru into smaller bottles to get them through.

One Twitter user wrote: "Stuff the face cream, the travel Bru supplies are crucial."
