armthehomeless Posted March 16, 2010 Report Share Posted March 16, 2010 I beg to differ I was considering talking a half in, but the shit that I get is really smelly when fresh so I'm not sure if its a good idea, as anything above a quart can be considered not for personal use. So advice please: are sniffer dogs only there for people entering the campsite for the first time? Because I'm thinking of setting up my tent etc, then returning to Nottingham to pick up and walking straight in with my green. Or is it better to bury it in my bag?

Lithium05 Posted March 16, 2010 Report Share Posted March 16, 2010 I have never seen sniffer dogs at Download. If they're there, they're not there the whole time. If you're that worrie and you've come by car, leave your stuff in the car and go back for it during the night when there are less people about you should be fine.

thedudeman Posted March 16, 2010 Report Share Posted March 16, 2010 in 2008 there were dogs everywhere. even outside derby train station as you got onto the shuttle bus. but last year there were f**k all. they didnt even search us as we went in to the grounds. you could take some weed but is it worth getting thrown out before you even get in? you'll miss a gd f**kin weekend n wont get your money back.

Lithium05 Posted March 16, 2010 Report Share Posted March 16, 2010 They won't throw you out. If it's police they'd just conviscate it (unless you had loads) and if it's DL staff they probably wouldn't give a f**k. It's glass, gas canisters and the like they're more concerned about.

dan666 Posted March 16, 2010 Report Share Posted March 16, 2010 I did see dogs there last year. Wed day afternoon. Main entrance. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hitmanhague Posted March 16, 2010 Report Share Posted March 16, 2010 I saw a fair few sniffer dogs last year; some at the entrance but mostly the police were catching people at Derby train station. To be fair the dogs at the festival weren't actually sniffing anyone though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
armthehomeless Posted March 16, 2010 Report Share Posted March 16, 2010 (edited) Yeah, from what I've heard, don't carry anything on you if you're getting a train to a festival as police have been known to make everyone walk past sniffer dogs sometimes. And don't smoke any before you go in, as I've known people who've been denied entry to places after being caught by sniffer dogs having smoked a joint hours earlier and having nothing on them. btw, is it really a good idea for this thread to be alive?

t8yman Posted March 17, 2010 Report Share Posted March 17, 2010 soni stewards were jumped up little f**kers last year. my mate had enough green for about 6 joints, the steward held my mate, who was on his way to see someone he wanted to see, and when his supervisor turned up and said my mate was OK, it wasnt a large amount, the steward whispered "prick" into my mates face. he doesnt know how close he was to getting a leathering if my mate had seen him on the way out.

Lithium05 Posted March 18, 2010 Report Share Posted March 18, 2010 I only saw the relaxed ones! There was a fat guy not paying much attention that we got a whole bag full of cans past and took into the comedy/silent disco Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bekimo Posted March 18, 2010 Report Share Posted March 18, 2010 ... I wouldnt of minded yet I had paid like £150 for a ticket without camping and yet there were thousands of people in the camping areas who had just won free tickets the day before who were allowed to walk in there when they pleased!

jonback Posted May 23, 2010 Report Share Posted May 23, 2010 I'll be taking a couple of grams of class B amphetamines for personal use and about two grams of ketamine. The amphetamine has a really strong odor but I have a great hiding place. So will I be okay? If the police search me and find nothing, do they just assume the dog was wrong?

armthehomeless Posted May 23, 2010 Report Share Posted May 23, 2010 (edited) Is there such thing as a 'great hiding place' as far as the police are concerned? Surely they've seen everything before, countless times? Edited May 23, 2010 by armthehomeless Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jonback Posted May 23, 2010 Report Share Posted May 23, 2010 But can the dogs be wrong? Like if I was sniffed and the police found nothing, could I not just say that it was because I had probably taken drugs before? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
armthehomeless Posted May 23, 2010 Report Share Posted May 23, 2010 (edited) It depends - I've known people who've had a joint before going to a club but had nothing on them and police with sniffer dogs outside refused to let them in. But the sniffer dogs won't just alert the police that you have drugs on you in a general manner (like they would if you'd just had some) - they'll locate exactly where they are and the police will take your shit apart to find them - after all they won't know that you've just got enough on you for personal use or not. As far as they're concerned you might be selling, so they won't stop until they find what you have. So don't go in if there are sniffer dogs smelling peoples bags!

metalman Posted May 24, 2010 Report Share Posted May 24, 2010 Try one of these i've been told it never fails at a festival, also if possible vacuum pack anything you want to take a few days before you go and leave the bag out to air out before travelling it makes it a lot less detectable. small vacuum packs can be bought from wilkinson's of pound shop or somewhere similar.

Macaque Posted May 24, 2010 Report Share Posted May 24, 2010 Everyone on the official boards are saying that they said this last year and didn't have any dogs and that it's just a scare tactic. Meh i'm still bringing a 10 bag. I know where i'm gonna hide it. Should be fine. Doubt they'll be looking for weed anyway, more likely Cocaine, Heroine, Shrooms and other hard drugs. If they had to stop everyone a dog smelt with weed the que would still be there come friday night. Don't think there's much to worry about really.
