The person who told me was very reliable and had some accurate detail I’ve left out.
I used to pick up fairly weighty gold bars from a place in Hatton Garden, and bags of foreign currency from Travelex.
And of course lots of drugs

Yeah, any real Aussie would've spunked the £20k on booze, drugs and women, before even thinking about going to the airport.

Back in the 99s there was a courier company that mainly recruited Aussie travellers. Gave them an insured BMW and paid them a pittance.
One of their riders picked up a job and the customer says be careful there is £20k in cash in that box.
Couple of hours later Heathrow Police phone the courier company about a BMW abandoned at the airport.
The guy was living in a shared house the his now drunk housemates knew nothing and hadn’t seen him since he picked up his passport.
His driving licence actually belonged to another Aussie who had passed through years ago and it had been handed down many times
