Not guilty

/nɒt/ /ˈgɪlti/

Customs Officers are quite tolerant these days, but they can

/ˈkʌstəmz/ /ˈɒfɪsəz/ /ɑː/ /kwaɪt/ /ˈtɒlərənt/ /ðiːz/ /deɪz,/ /bʌt/ /ðeɪ/ /kæn/

still stop you when you are going through the Green Channel

/stɪl/ /stɒp/ /juː/ /wɛn/ /juː/ /ɑː/ /ˈgəʊɪŋ/ /θruː/ /ðə/ /griːn/ /ˈʧænl/

and have nothing to declare. Even really honest people are

/ænd/ /hæv/ /ˈnʌθɪŋ/ /tuː/ /dɪˈkleə./ /ˈiːvən/ /ˈrɪəli/ /ˈɒnɪst/ /ˈpiːpl/ /ɑː/

often made to feel guilty. The hardened professional

/ˈɒf(ə)n/ /meɪd/ /tuː/ /fiːl/ /ˈgɪlti./ /ðə/ /ˈhɑːdnd/ /prəˈfɛʃənl/

smuggler, on the other hand, is never troubled by such

/ˈsmʌglə,/ /ɒn/ /ði/ /ˈʌðə/ /hænd,/ /ɪz/ /ˈnɛvə/ /ˈtrʌbld/ /baɪ/ /sʌʧ/

feelings, even if he has five hundred gold watches hidden in

/ˈfiːlɪŋz,/ /ˈiːvən/ /ɪf/ /hiː/ /hæz/ /faɪv/ /ˈhʌndrəd/ /gəʊld/ /ˈwɒʧɪz/ /ˈhɪdn/ /ɪn/

his suitcase. When I returned from abroad recently, a

/hɪz/ /ˈsjuːtkeɪs./ /wɛn/ /aɪ/ /rɪˈtɜːnd/ /frɒm/ /əˈbrɔːd/ /ˈriːsntli,/ /eɪ/

particularly officious young Customs Officer clearly regarded

/pəˈtɪkjʊləli/ /əˈfɪʃəs/ /jʌŋ/ /ˈkʌstəmz/ /ˈɒfɪsə/ /ˈklɪəli/ /rɪˈgɑːdɪd/

me as a smuggler.

/miː/ /æz/ /ə/ /ˈsmʌglə./

'Have you anything to declare?' he asked, looking me in the

/hæv/ /juː/ /ˈɛnɪθɪŋ/ /tuː/ /dɪˈkleə?'/ /hiː/ /ɑːskt,/ /ˈlʊkɪŋ/ /miː/ /ɪn/ /ðiː/

eye. 'No', I answered confidently.

/aɪ./ /nəʊ,/ /aɪ/ /ˈɑːnsəd/ /ˈkɒnfɪdəntli./

'Would you mind unlocking this suitcase please?' 'Not at all,' I

/wʊd/ /juː/ /maɪnd/ /ʌnˈlɒkɪŋ/ /ðɪs/ /ˈsjuːtkeɪs/ /pliːz?'/ /nɒt/ /æt/ /ɔːl,'/ /aɪ/

answered.

/ˈɑːnsəd./

The Officer went through the case with great care. All the

/ði/ /ˈɒfɪsə/ /wɛnt/ /θruː/ /ðə/ /keɪs/ /wɪð/ /greɪt/ /keə./ /ɔːl/ /ðiː/

thing I had packed so carefully were soon in adreadful mess.

/θɪŋ/ /aɪ/ /hæd/ /pækt/ /səʊ/ /ˈkeəfli/ /wɜː/ /suːn/ /ɪn/ /ə/ /ˈdrɛdfʊl/ /mɛs./

I felt sure I would never be able to close the case again.

/aɪ/ /fɛlt/ /ʃʊər/ /aɪ/ /wʊd/ /ˈnɛvə/ /biː/ /ˈeɪbl/ /tuː/ /kləʊs/ /ðə/ /keɪs/ /əˈgɛn./

Suddenly, I saw the Officer's face light up. He had spotted a

/ˈsʌdnli,/ /aɪ/ /sɔː/ /ði/ /ˈɒfɪsəz/ /feɪs/ /laɪt/ /ʌp./ /hiː/ /hæd/ /ˈspɒtɪd/ /eɪ/
