At Heathrow a Nice Lady help me out and I was granted the ETA 5 mins later.

Seems the Americans have changed their rules and you have to apply at least three days before for an ESTA

PS the ETA was half the price of the ESTA only $7 Canadian.

PPS am looking to go again at end of May till middle June.

PPPS Weather in Vegas at Mo is colder then in the UK.

Last year Flew into LA ask by TSA moron do you have proof you will be leaving,

Gave him my paperwork showing my return flight.

He put the paper work in front of him and in his left hand got hand glasses out to read it like those opera type things

He put his right hand on his gun as he read it.

YES tell her again not to be rude.

All I wanted to do was ask him ARE YOU TAKING THE UNW you blind bastard

Re: Entry to USA

Thank you so much for taking the time to answer my original question and special thanks to Galty in Rainham for reminding me to thank everyone. I see this thread consists of:

1 original question
4 replies to the original question
6 replies regarding ESTA and/or ETA forms
8 replies about bad manners in America
1 reply vaguely about America in general
3 replies which can only be classed as "other"

Personally I only checked the first few replies as after that the thread looses any connections with the original question and I just haven't had the time to wade through the gobbledegook - of varying interest - which followed. Just another normal thread I guess!

Galty - I think you should be appointed manners monitor!
