Calais to Belgium

:open_mouth: You shouldn’t mention ■■■■ otherwise you will have the anti smoking brigade on your case saying how you are lowering the tone of the thread and bringing it into disrepute !

Don’t mention you are looking for ■■■■ over there. They could take it as the American say it. and it might hurt. :laughing:

There is an app called truck parking Europe .from the App Store or google play if android gives truck stops, ind estates, and rest areas and it’s free

Habay is a good truckstop.It is near the Luxembourg border.Skewres of roast mixed meats.Friendly staff.Locals eat there.Hotel and decent showers.
Veurne is another one.Cafe and fuel pumps.Jet wash.

Also, sticking your finger in a dyke means something entirely different as well.

There is no limit, but customs have “guidelines”.
It was 60 pouches, I think it might be 20 now. They may ask you to role one to check if you smoke role ups.
Don’t bring back different brands, That just stands out like a sore thumb that you’re flogging it.
