Well as promised here is the tale: just after we left Holland and entered Belgium on the bus I enquired of the driver just how he intends to cut off 4 hours off the journey he then informed me we would cross the channel by Euro rail, my heart missed a beat; as I knew; the French customs officers were no push over! So when the bus reached the crossing point at Calais the bus driver was asked, where are we coming from, he answered “Amsterdam” he was told ”everyone off the bus including baggage” he made a big sigh and cut the engine.
All and sundry,man ,women & quite a few picker ninnies, climbed off the buss in 38c blazing sun and lined up to be examined,anyways as “sod’s law goes" the four most interesting players were the last four in the queue.
The first was an English guy just out for fun they let him out early, just playing with him.
The second peeps was a South American girl with very high platform shoes, so they prised them off her feet and proceeded to scan them.
So now my turn ,What you got in your pockets” he asked me, (as my rucksack chased platform shoes) I replied seeds, what kind of seed he asked, I replied Cannabis, he then told me to reveal the seeds, I made the revelation, all of a sudden I was surrounded by 3 other officers with guns drawn!
I told them that seeds are legal, so after a bit of bickering, they send for the chief honcho, he came over and declared "sensi seeds" what do you do with them, I replied collect them ,he said “give him back the seeds” I have to admit a lot of what that went on has been missed out, this is a very tacit report.
Anyway they gave me back the seeds then told me “don’t move” as the guy on the scanner did not like my bag, it was chasing the ladies platforms, but now we have the last players bag, a Canadian ,young guy just travelling.
At this point the big guy asks me “what’s in the bag"" that is the shape of a ball", I replied “cheese” the he said “show me the cheese”great now I’m on to a winner, my bag is no longer on the scanner and the seeds are back in my pocket, then he smelt the cheese and gave all the small guys a whiff, then said it "smells great" and told me to go, because I said I did not have any weed, his words were” I believe you” After that they took the other guy away for 1
hour, and then released him a shivering wreck!
So we are all on the bus getting ready to go then, they bring back the lassies shoes she refused them quoting “if you like them so much just keep them”
So the bus set off, and without going 50 yards it was the British turn, they were watching all the time so concentrated about harassing the other peeps about passports,
So in the end I got to keep my seeds and cheese, the ladies shoes were tainted and the guy lost his wine, and then we all terminated in Victoria station.

Well the moral of this tale is manifold.
First up do not use the cannel tunnel they are prang about it
Second don’t fuck with the French where wine and cheese are concerned.
And third never lie; be frugal with the truth (at least on paper)

First pic is of the offending cheese.
The second pic is of the seeds, the French thought were no good as you can’t smoke em (they kept on asking do you not have anything to smoke?)

Append: the French would not let me take a pic of the shoes, or of; the slap in the face wine! That came to their shores via the son of an expatriate who walks with bastard foreign wines! Man did he suffer! “Poor thing” as for me; well I am used to it, got prepared for the fight you know “Dreadlocks smell of weed!”:rastab:

Man good ta hear you made it back with little troubles... sure ya got searched, but they really coulda been "French" (Assholes) to ya and detained ya fer a hours, messing with ya bout the seeds, making you miss the bus back to the UK leaving you to find your own way. I heard a few stories while in A'Dam and Switzerland last year bout the French border crossings... eazy smeezy going to Holland... but coming from Holland.... search fer dayz! If you look suspiscious they'll search ya!
These four Uni Kidz I was chattin with in Switzerland were from the USA, traveling through-out Europe for the Winter... well they we're going to Paris from Amsterdam on the train and the French border police singled out this one Cat out of the group cuz he looks like a stoner.... none of the guys had any smoke on em, they didn't smoke, which was sumthin I found rather odd.... but anyway The "French" took this one to the side and detained him fer over an hour... they took everythang outta his ruck... went through the seems of the clothes, ruck, shoes, dirty underwear/ socks, everythang!!!!
They didn't say Boo to the other three guys waiting for their friend.

I was also told that Germany's border guards can be real Dick's too when you tell them you're coming from Amsterdam.
BUT... when I was planning my trip, all this was to be expected...
I had a run in with the Dutch border police back in the day, many many moons ago... a story for later.

But for the last trip my cover story coming from Amsterdam into Germany was.... and where are you coming from? "Arnhem and Nijmagen, touring WWII battlefields."
And since I entered Europe via Frankfurt Main, that was the only country stamped on my Passport.... not like I flew into Schiphol from the USA.
I did fly into Schiphol from Frankfurt, but was able to by-pass the customs peeps there. Seems their not too concerned with "Domestic" flights in Europe that come into Schiphol... cuz a bunch of us jus walked thru the customs area at Schiphol, no one at the counter.

They really look hard at your Passport at all border crossings on the trains and buses, looking for forgeries, and they ask where from and where to.
The last trip to Europe I had no problems what so ever.... well except when I flew into Frankfurt, they did make me take my shoes off, and double scanned by ruck, and they were suspicious of my handheld PC...
"Vasen das?"
It's a handheld computer.
"Vas?"
A PC... and I open it up.... see?
"Ja, Ja. You go over thar to take off shoes now."
While I was waiting for one of the staff to check my shoes I noticed them running my coat and rucksack thru the scanner again, and the one Cat was checkin out my HH PC a lil more closely.

We went through two sets of Passport checks in less then 50 meters.
The first was for entering Germany, jus a PP check and stamp. The second was for leaving Germany, PP check and scan.
It was a big cluster fuck too... kinda surprising knowing the Germans er kinda known fer their order.

:p

[reubeni]

CB,Fred Lemonjello,dredank,drumin,gorilla,high2dsky thanx for the concern guys but did my research and I new there was nothing they could do to me while beans are legal the only problem would be if I could make sure they did not steal em by sticking to my guns all the same its nice to have the angels on your side,here is some info on the Cream sodica limited edition.

Cream Sodica #2
outdoors, greenhouse
This variety is a very popular variety originally developed by "Spice of Life", the former Canadian Seed Company. Upgraded by DP as Cream Sodica #2 and produced in it’s feminised form, this is a variety well worth to work with. Special about this variety are the hard and compact colas, already starting to develop at the third week of flowering. About 80% of the plants turn purple, with a tremendous production of resin glands. The high is not super strong, but it’s very up. It’s a good daytime smoke that does allow you to work. Taste is fruty with a "purple" bouquet. This variety consists of 50% Indica and 50% Sativa genetics and works well in an outdoor and greenhouse environment.
