Comment : (*) - Time throughout Afghan. Highly dramatic night passage through the Khyber Pass, although the record time taken for clearance by Pakiatani customs ( 2 out of the 3 hours ) was responsible for this. As it was, no-one was shot, despite the highly glamourised tales from last year. The fruit check: was an example of Pakistani humour, but the sudden increase in humdity was certainly not.
