Old Pink and Gypsy Nirvana Strip Searched by French Customs!!
- Thread starter Gypsy Nirvana
- Start date
I must be that they are catching on to Gypsy's act with that Jag being so hard to notice with that Kojak looking fella at the wheel. 
Maybe an old VW microbus would be less conspicuous but it wouldn't be as much fun to drive.
So were the seeds confisgated this time or are the French cooler than the Belgium customs guys? Perhaps they said, "say la vie" just seeds... BOG

Inside the big samsonite suitcase was a 28 inch Mac L.C.D. screen all wrapped up tightly in bubble wrap and surrounded by some of my clothing...One of the customs guys asked me what it was and I said 'its a L.C.D. computer screen'.....I was ready to un-wrap it all to show them but they did not ask me to do this and I felt that this was strange since how could they be doing their job properly without viewing and examining this very large and heavy object?.....For all they knew I could have had a few kilos of Hashish wrapped up in that bubble wrap......
How odd, I thought to myself as the customs guy motioned for me to close the big suitcase and move on to open the smaller one that I had to pull out from behind my seat. This had plenty of cannabis seeds inside and drew their attention. Packs of Nirvana seeds, Sensi Seeds....Serious Seeds ....Dutch Passion and Sagarmatha were examined by them all minutely as I explained what they were and where I was taking them and why. 'I sell seeds thru my seed shops in Amsterdam and London of many varieties, as you can see' I said with much aplomb!....'Would you fella's care to have a pack or two?' I said with a cheery voice.......They all thought this was a very humourous gesture......but I was dead serious. 'Eh non....vee do not vant your seeds' said the customs guy closest to me as he examined a pack of AK47 from the Serious Seeds bag. I confirmed with them that cannabis seeds were not illegal in France and felt quite relieved that they would not confiscate them as the Belgians had done earlier in the year for the seeds had cost me alot to buy and I did not want to loose these to some illegal confiscation again.
There was an almost jovial atmosphere in that customs bay as the French guys went thru the Jag semi-meticulously, they even had a look at the spare wheel and the ski-hatch but were not interested to look at the engine because when I popped the bonnet for them to have a look, they declined the invitation and asked me to close it again.
After 15 minutes or so they seemed to have finished their search and now wanted me and Old Pink to follow them over to their offices/cell area. Oh dear I thought to myself, is it now that we are going to be locked up or what?

I've been reading this with some interest, Ironically today my friend showed me this piece indian black charas (hash) that he'd smuggled through customs back from delhi a week ago it smelled very fresh and was of medium brown in colour he only bought back a few spliffs and I felt honoured as I rolled up a fat cocktail of this and the local supremo commercial skunk under a park lamp (the only kind of HID light I get to see now!) it tasted like light choc mixed in with skunky undertones and induced a heavy body stone whilst the skunk supplied the head buzz just beautiful 
p.s. is my order still on it's way? I wake up every morning hoping the postie has got something special for me
These French customs coppers never tried the strong-arm stuff......all but one of them was smiling occasionally and they escorted us over to this other building where I was led down a corridor and asked to sit at this desk on a not so comfortable chair, there was nothing macho about them at all, quite the contrary.
The chief/supervisor customs guy with the curly blond hair and beard sat down at the same table and started writing on some forms checking and confirming my identity. They had taken Old Pink away in another direction for some reason and I enquired as to where my son was...'Yaw sun iz over der waiting in your car' the Frenchman said.
I thought that they might ask me to make some sort of statement or other but this did not happen. Basically it looked like they were having to write a bunch of forms out in triplicate, and in longhand ......They were taking details from my passport and making checks with some guy on a computer in the corner. I watched them chatter away in French and fuss about as I wondered what they were doing with O.P.
Maybe they were trying stronger tactics of interrogation on Old Pink?.....Maybe they were playing good-cop ....bad-cop?........Maybe my friend was getting the rubber glove treatment from some wanna-be French proctologist and it would be my turn next!!

I guess France is safer for everyone now that customs managed to confiscate 3 grams of hash off the streets.

to be honest the customs guys were quite polite to us and I wasn't worried
worse case was I'd spend the weekend in a cell and get a fine on the monday
almost every trip to Amsterdam I bring home some hash, just as I did on this trip
I've been stopped & searched loads of time's (mostly my bag's), never my person before
I suppose I had to get caught eventually but hey I'm free and still smoking
and we have a good story for you guy's and maybe some hint's if your travelling through france
I'll let Gypsy carry on the story, he has a way with word's

....Wow!....this French customs supervisor guy had to fill all of these forms out in what looked like triplicate at least.....he scribbled away with his Biro and occasionally asked me some questions about my identity, the car e.t.c.......I reckon that he would soon have repetative strain injuries in his wrist if they had to write up every 3 gramms of hash that passed this border...
After a while Old Pink showed up at the door and was followed into the room with another customs officer....the gormless looking one.....O.P. looked a bit shook up and I wondered where they had taken him........and was soon to find out.
They asked me to follow them along the corridor as they told me that I was to be searched again. I was led into this filthy looking holding cell with a metal door and a dirty matress and told to remove my clothing for 'observation!'....because they said that they had the right to see me naked!!......I was only clothed in a blue coolmax T-shirt and a pair of light shorts and flip-flops with nothing in my pockets.....so I don't know what they expected to find on me beneath this very light summer clothing?
I thought about it and felt that if I did not comply with them then we would be held up even longer by these people, maybe even attacked by them and made to strip?..... I had nothing to hide.....except my dignity I suppose......exposing myself to strange foreign men in uniform is definately not anything that I would want to do voluntarily....and so I felt kinda abused here psychologically........
.....as I took my shorts and shirt off and did a 360 degree turn so letting these French customs guys see me completely STARKERS!........it was so bloody embarrasing....but it had to be done I suppose?

I'm laughing my ass off reading this thread, easy for me cause it didn't happen to me, I'm sure it was quite intense to experience first hand.
But I gotta say this...most parents take their kids on field trips to the zoo, or fishing, camping, etc. Not Gypsy tho! LMAO A field trip thru customs.....LMAO. Sorry Gypsy, no disrespect intended, just strikes me as hilarious.

French are Ok
French are Ok
I'm not a big fan of France as a place (well based on one hot summer to close to the river in paris)
but the French people I know I get on well with, and we even shook hands with the customs
guys as we left
