Have you ever been asked?

have you ever been asked to smuggle something back■■?

I just pulled into capellen for fuel and this fella turns up and asked if I would take back 2 pallets of tobacco for £2000.

I polity refused.

Everytime I used to pull into Jabbeke services!

Yeh couple of times. Wouldn’t touch it with a barge pole.

Yes. More than once. The last time by a bloke in a vest with an irish accent in raanst services just the other side of antwerp.
And no… Im not that daft.

Quite a few times, used to be lads in Capellan all the time.

Got asked a couple times too take back a couple Chinese immigrants a couple times from boulogne,£2000 per person,I said in my best Scottish accent thanks but no thanks

yes, was asked if I was going to england once and would I mind taking something along. I was parked near cadiz and had a swedish trailer :laughing:

Got offered €10,000 once to take a couple of tubs from Holland to Sweden, obviously I politely turned it down.

Got asked to take people back to england…in a tanker…in luxembourg lol

No. HTH

I’ve been asked in all the services in Lux’ at some stage.
I turned all offers down, obviously.
Some offers may be genuine, but I recon you are probably going to be the sacrificial lamb.
Customs will get an anonymous tip off that a truck with … registration was spotted loading in what looked like ‘suspicious’ circumstances. While the HMBA team are ■■■■■■■ arresting you, a full load sails through with their regular man.

my thoughts as well.

Yes, there used to be a couple of Irish blokes at Adinkerke who used to regularly approach drivers, and I’ve had someone wind down their car window while sat in traffic in Holland and ask me if I wanted to earn some money taking stuff back, it’s not something I would ever in a million years think of doing though.

Stupid comment !

“a night in the cells”… I used to work with a lad called Bruce. He did six months in lille nick for bringing tobacco in.
Unless you are a modern day Ronnie biggs you’ll be there more than a night.
I like you Phil but you shouldn’t come out with lines like that. Some of the more impressionable drivers might think it’s true and be tempted.

And I’m just teasing. Lighten up man.

Had a hitchiker once, he was speaking Russian and poor English. When we were approaching Callais, he told me that he has no passport and that he will hide in the back of my van. I said "all right, stopped when possible, he got out of the cab and tried back doors, but they were locked, and I drove away leaving him there.
