Taking weed to Leeds festival...

Boffin · #1 (**permalink**) 01-04-2005, 10:06 PM

Hello, fine members of the city! You're all fine? Fine. Anyway... I'm planning on taking probably an ounce to the Carling Leeds festival this Summer (my New Year's Resolution is to, each week, put £5 or more if I have it into a box- by the time Leeds rolls around I'll have about £150 or so... Shall get my friends to chip in a couple pounds too, and smoke out everyone within a 10m radius

) Anyway, sorry, ramblage...

Basically I'm just wondering what the security is like at Leeds :

-How should I stash the goods, if at all.
-Should I bother taking me big bong (acrylic, tough but bright green and not exactly explainable)... I'm thinking of just taking my longest downstem and converting a two-litre bottle.
-Should I just buy inside the festival? (I'm thinking no- I wanna be sure to get a good deal, plus I'd rather not go in there with 150 quid in my pocket, y'know?)

Thanks for any advice, or maybe harrowing tales you could give me.

well cant speak for security at Leeds, but i go to T in the Park every year, and after MANY years i've learned the following........

1/ buy a pipe in there, that way if you get stopped your not losing a sentimental piece, that may mean a lot to you, make sure it's a pipe, that way they won't find it when you search you for talking bottles into the arena (that's if you can camp?)(fits in your back in your belt) no glass at T in the Park even the campsite, apart from the glass pipes they sell at the head shops (strange i know, but true!!)

2/ i take my grass in with me, double bagged, strapped to the front of my body, and trying to avaoid the hairs!!.....ouch!..... that way a patdown won't feel it, ie under a jumper, fleece etc, don't try it with a t-shirt, they'll think you've got 3 man boobs.......lol

3/ buy your blunts/skins roach in there, as if they find skins, they'll go hunting for weed, no smoke without fire eh?

4/ just enjoy yourself and don't worry, don't look too nervous, there's thousands of people sneaking in FAR worse than an oz of weed.........E, Coke, smack, acid etc etc etc.............Peace out........Sid

How easy is it to get acid/weed in redding festival?

Boffin · #5 (**permalink**) 01-05-2005, 09:16 PM

Thanks a lot, Sid. Yeah I'm camping... I was thinking of taking my metal downstem and just burning holes in plastic bottles for bongness, though we'll probably stick to the joints. Cunning plan: Convincing parents that the reason I want to take a small, cheap tent and not bring it back is in case it gets screwed up, NOT because all that hotboxing will have it stinking of weed.

Ah we went to reading festival with almost 2 ounces of ganja last year. I myself took about 12g i think, and my friend took about 35g. No one is gonna search you on entry to the campsites, theres just way way too many people to do that.

When you go into the arenas though, they do pat you down briefly, not much though, cos remember the amount of people flowing through. What i normally do is just crotch all my stuff in a pouch, works very well.

Finding drugs in festivals - Drugs such as acid would be very hard to find unless you knew the right people. Even shrooms were hard to find, except for the overpriced garbage they sell you at the shops. I know some guy I met had bought ecstacy, but said it was quite a shit pill.

If you do take harder drugs, obviously hide them better.

Ganja will be pretty easy to find, seeing as everyone is smoking it openly. You can smoke how you like when you like, as long as its not up in the face of police man or member of staff. They really wont exactly hassle you.

We did see a few police walking round the festival camps looking for trouble, but generally they just told people to put out fires, and gave people cautions for doing stupid things.

Ill probs go reading again this year. But ill take along some greater drug selection for my enjoyment.

Bump-a-roonie...

Additional question : Around how big will an ounce or so be? I'm just talking an average so I can work out how I'm gonna store it- parents are VERY anti-bud so if they found an ounce, I'd be meat.

heat_blitz · #8 (**permalink**) 02-02-2005, 09:36 PM

Well once you had the ounce, you could squash it down to the size of an orange really.
So think 2 oranges volume wise when its in buds. You can easily store it in many things. Socks, boxes, bottles, books.... anything which conceals it.

Smell is the only problem, either wrap it up in shitloads of bags or clingfilm if you have a big issue over it, or use a tupperware container or equally airtight pot for storing it.

Tupperware and sealable boxes are definitely the best for smell. You have to get inventive for hiding the bag.

Boffin, try and get some good (unmicrowaved) hash instead. A lot easier to stash!

Unholy · #10 (**permalink**) 02-09-2005, 08:33 PM

Mmmm hash could be an idea boffin

Boffin · #11 (**permalink**) 02-10-2005, 09:24 PM

I'm not really sure... I think judging on what blitzy has said it won't be too hard sneaking in the bud. I'm just gonna keep it on the campsite anyway - mainly gonna be using it at night or maybe wake 'n' bakes - wouldn't be too keen on being blazed and then dragged into a mosh-pit. Little too trippy for my liking hehe. The tupperware is a good idea, although I had the idea of maybe getting a big pot of instant coffee, emptying it out except for a layer at the bottom, placing the multi-bagged bud in there and surrounding it with grounds. Looks fine, smells fine and it's air-tight too! You don't think it'd dry it out, though do you?

mooglekexin · #12 (**permalink**) 02-10-2005, 11:47 PM

hope to see some of you there!!!

i will be taking an ounce of the best shit i can find, maybe even my own homegrown if its ready by then, cos there aint much good here

(i dunno when the festival is... probably wont be ready)

i am also going to leeds festival (camping for the weekend) and do u think it would be wise to take some ready make joints? i think it would be much easier having it ready made.

i was thinking i'd make as many joints as possible, (prolly from about 40 quids worth) and putting them in a cd case, (take the cd holder out and just have the outside case) what do u guys think?
