we used to get oil packed into plastic drinking straws, sold by the inch! i did a roaring trade with two butter knives and a camping gaz stove on my belt at many outdoor gatherings… hot knives, anyone?
for a time we were getting afghani with gold kalashnikovs stamped on them, shiva’s fingers of charras bom!
Yeah, I remember smoking some of that with the guy whose arse it had been up.
We also used to get this hash called ‘diesel’ which was smuggled in lorry petrol tanks. NICE.
Used to live with a guy who was a charas smuggler. Chillum sessions were hardcore round at ours. When he arrived home from India several times each year there was a queue at the door. I was spoiled for the 18 months or so I lived with him, the quality was insane. Also an early smuggler of pure mdma back from Amsterdam. This was c2000 before it was popular. Funny thing was if you lined up 100 people and said ‘which one is the smuggler?’ this guy (long hair, total hippy) would be number one pick. But never had any problems at all.
One of my mates spent an hour in my bathroom sorting the contents of his guts (approx half a pound) after flying back from India. Was weird smoking it tbh. Not sure how he kept it all in for that long. It was great gear tho.
