When Things Are Down Get High!!
To answer the original question, I'd certainly have 2 before going the airport and keep the rest for when you get back!. That way if you dont "forget" when wrecked that you packed some away and put it in your case for the return journey then you still have something to smoke at home to recall the trip with!. Got the Henry thing right away as a m8 used to do a little dealing a few years back!.

tempting...
stuffing a few g's inside something sounds so very tempting, but each time i talk myself out of it by saying..."is a weeks worth of buzz worth ruining your life? especially when you have a bag waiting for you at home....".....luckily, i keep listening to my advice....hopefully some of my fellow heads will, too.
don't panic...smoke some organic....
If you are wondering who Tall Guys mate was, then here is an extract from a trip report in oct 07..............
This is what happened back in sept07........
It was Me!!!!!

To be fair, the amount i brought back was quite small to what i used to bring back (70-100g sometimes) I never thought i`d get caught either untill...............

Stocked up on cheap cigs and baccy at the airport before i checked in. The flight was delayed so i went down stairs and made a hooter in the toilets which i chonged outside.
This is where my trip got stupid, scary, foolish and dam right horrible. Through no-ones fault but my own. I was seriuosly doubting whether i should put this next bit on a forum, but i thought fuck it! i got nothing to hide. Sooooooooo............
I Got off the plane at LBA, up to passport control went through then i noticed the Customs guy follow me downstairs. just as i was about to walk out into "Freedom" i heard this "One moment please sir". They took me into the room where they search your bags etc and they emptied everything out and gave it all a thorough check. Then they swabbed the inside of my bag, pockets, trainers etc for traces of narcotics. They then came back 20 mins later saying they had found minute traces of HEROIN in my left trainer!! . Ive never been in contact with brown in all my life. Anyway they then said they were gonna do a strip search. At this point i began to shit mysef (not literally) . Lets just say ive had a bit of a chequered past, and have been in trouble with the 'filth' a few times, but not for 5 years. When they they asked me to strip and take off my undies i just pulled em down and out fell 11g T Ball, 7g Kash Marroc, 4g Rifman Hash, 3g G. Soles, 4.5 Silver Bubble from GA, 4g HP13 Haze from GA, 3g Grey Diesel, 1g orange haze, Mr Nice Hashplant, 2g misty, 3.5 Blueberry and 2g King Hassan Hash......... all compacted into 2 orange Kinder Egg cases!
Then i was taken to Manchester Airport Customs Holding cells (some 40 mile away) at midnight. where i was put in an all-in-one boiler suit and handcuffed. I got 2 hours kip. and it was freezing. Then whenever i needed to go the toilet i had two guys watching me, they thought i had more drugs concealed "inside" me , so i had to have 3 shites into a glass see through toilet,while the Customs guys watched from 3 ft away to prove my guts were empty
. I found it hard to shit while being watched so they took me to Manchester hospital for an X-Ray at 4pm Saturday, (Although i did get 'em back before we went to hospital as i left a massive steamer for them to sift through before i left)

"That'll teach 'em" i thought. I Got back to my cell about 6.30pm Sat, then got interviewed. Get This - my last caution was exactly 5 years ago down to the minute!! In fact it had been 5 years and 12 minutes. If i got caught 12 mins earlier my solicitor told me i'd have got 12-18months. Lucky Bastard!
They even gave me £30 to get home so i hopped on the train to leeds and got a Burger King with the change!
And yep, you can all say "you twat!" or "why did you bother" and whatever else springs to mind. But whats done is done and ive learnt my lesson, Allbeit the hard way.
Its actually quite funny lookin back on it now to be fair. Especially the toilet bit in CustomsWell i think so anyway

I like to call it "Foolish" or Stupid. I could have got 18 months in the slammer - all for an oz and half of green/hash. Not worth it anymoretravelling high wrote:But I do remember thinking how ballsy you were mate.
Shame really cos i used to have a good supply of ganja most of the year. What with flights costing 40-50pounds i used to go every 10-12 weeks.
Flash Gordon approaching........
on my first trip to the Dam, january of 2001 there were 4 of us going together. 3 little white guys and one big black dude (youll see why i say that). i was too scared to try and bring anything back but one of us little white guys and the black dude did try. they flattened about 14 g of weed and hash as much as they could and put 7g in each shoe and walked on it to get it real flat. this is how the two of em got on the plane with 7g in each shoe. When we landed at NY's JFK there were of course sniffer dogs by the luggage pickup, they would come around to sniff each person and his bags and carryons. the three of us white guys (one carrying 14 g) just breezed through to freedom but when we got outside were all looking around...wheres rod? oh shit he got stopped, it figured the bastards only stop a black dude, such crap right. we waited outside shittin our pants for about 10 minutes when he emerged with a big smile. all they did was check his carry-on but they didnt go near his shoes...ok big sigh of relief. but i believe an ounce between em coulda really got us all fucked that day, good thing we got lucky...

It might be an easier way to get it back to the U.K.Less travel.But sending it to the States might prove very problematic.Just like attempting to bring it with.Yes I was a bit tense but I had it hidden pretty well.I won't be doing it again for a number of reasons listed in this thread..Ash333 wrote:mail it. worst happens u lose ur gear. no shitting in front of customs guys.

there you go then. I'd be happy to try it again as all I have at stake is a few hundred euros. i wouldnt risk my freedom for half an ounce, sorry.travelling high wrote:It might be an easier way to get it back to the U.K.Less travel.But sending it to the States might prove very problematic.Just like attempting to bring it with.Yes I was a bit tense but I had it hidden pretty well.I won't be doing it again for a number of reasons listed in this thread..Ash333 wrote:mail it. worst happens u lose ur gear. no shitting in front of customs guys.
The thing is that i dont want any stuff sent back to my house. All they gotta do is put 1 and 1 together and that will be me in more bother. None of my mates wanna accept it either which is understandable. And to be honest i can get very good weed around here at the moment. A lot of it better than Amsterdam stuff
So it aint so bad after all.......
