It's Not What It Looks Like!

What have you done that, in retrospect, you'd really rather nobody had seen, mostly as things just get worse the more you try to explain it?

Busted for tea smuggling
While on holiday in Turkey, I discovered a local drink called "apple tea" (actually more sugar than apple) and resolved to take some back to Blighty. So on my last day, I trotted off to a local market and got 3 bags of the stuff.
Trouble is, a light brown powder sold in a sealed clear plastic bag looks innocent enough in the market, less so when customs at Gatwick decide to search your bag. There was a look of triumph on the officer's face as she pulled the stuff out of my rucksack while I pleaded my innocence. On closer inspection, they decided it smelled of apple so they let me go without feeling the need to search my bum.
