Nervous Thief

A man returning from a holiday in Amsterdam was trying to smuggle a small amount of marijuana back into Britain. He was of a very nervous disposition, and the air stewardesses had noticed him sweating profusely and mumbling away to himself on the plane. When the time came for him to pick his luggage up off the carousel before proceeding through customs his nerve finally broke and he grabbed the nearest suitcase off the carousel. When the customs officer saw the man's sweating white face he became suspicious and asked to search his luggage. The man, now very glad that he had not picked up his own suitcase, congratulated himself on what a close call he had had, and agreed to the search. When the officer opened up the stranger's suitcase he found a large quantity of heroin stashed in one of the pockets!
