Sniffer Dogs at Glastonbury

[SubZeroCat]

they were also doing this en masse at Paddington Station yesterday evening, loads of them lining the route to the train, leading of lots of poor people to a special hut they'd set up...

Wtf?

If there are sniffer dogs at the festival entry AND at Paddington I can only assume they will carry on their no tolerance thing throughout the festival which means lots and lots of coppers/dogs/search tents etc. As sleaterkinney said, don't the police have anything better to do?

Isle of Wight festival apparently v bad for sniffers - dogs checking people out before AND after the event. last year a female photographer with press pass got strip searched in a tent on the way in.

the use of sniffer dogs at festivals/schools etc is a serious attack on civil liberties, even worse than id cards imo

 

[sleaterkinney]

The past is one thing, since all aspects of licencing responsibility passed to local authorities things have changed, whatever the event.

It was fine a few years ago so why change it?. All this will lead to is more dealers on site, or more people getting boozed up.

We camped up near the fence and were entertained all weekend watching fence jumpers getting their ankles mauled, so not all bad.

You are clearly a dickhead.

Well it does because the times I have been there there was a live and let live approach from the police. First Strawberry fair and now this - don't the pigs have anything better to do?

Apparently not. They are shit at stopping people blowing up our public transport system but very good at stopping people having a good time. Got to make those arrests somehow.

How are people going to do any drugs at Glastonbury with all them dogs around?

What an idiotic thing to do, it's going to ruin the whole thing isn't it?

What's the world coming to?

Sniffer dogs are relatively easy to beat if take a few moments thought and preparation.

They get tired quickly and will only work for 20 min stints. Toward the end of the 'game' they get bored and may well ignore what they smell.

Likewise there are lots of things dogs love to smell. Aniseed is one of them. So hand out aniseed balls/twists to everyone on the coach/train.

Get your own stash, wrap it in foil. Wash your hands. Wrap it in cling film. Wash your hand. Spray the bundle with deodorant. Then put it in shampoo/bag of crisps/pot noodle, etc.

Make sure you have a shower and wear fresh clothes when you go.

Even if you get sniffed (unlikely) they may still not find it.
No problem

Last couple of times I went to Glastonbury the Wiltshire police were doing huge stop'n'search operations on the A303. So, be careful all round..

I would not go to any event in the middle of Bodmin Moor. It will probably snow.

I doubt it...I doubt there'll be any fun either!

I'd need a serious amount of drugs to get me through a festival with the medieval babes headling!

Having just looked at some of the acts appearing, me, if it wasn't in the middle of Bodmin Moor.

Jesus H! Is that for real?

I wanna go

Apparently so, there have been large advertisments in West Country newspapers recently.

Who wouldn't want to listen to Daughters of Elvin or Magic Folk?

 

[SubZeroCat]

I wanna go

Me too !! (with a ridiculous amount of drugs of course )

 

[Flashman]

And me.

 

[perplexis]

Um, "LOL"
It's not really surprising is it.
Sucks balls though. I think we should all boycott UK festivals- they're all over-priced, over-policed and the music stops too early.

 

[no-no]

You are clearly a dickhead.

calm down onket, no one was seriously hurt and we warned plenty of people not to try to jump the fence in that area.

 

[han]

Yes I think that would be essential

 

[Onket]

calm down onket, no one was seriously hurt and we warned plenty of people not to try to jump the fence in that area.

Kindly make yourself clear in future then.

are you joking? this is like shooting fish in a barrel, they could have the next ten years' quota done by monday.

 

[bmd]

I would not put a bet on it never happening, especially with liquid explosives and terrorism being flavour of the month.

Hello Tobyjug.

bastards.
