Security / booze

[surveyor]

Seem to be total arses this year. Searching at BSJ for booze. It’s unclear exactly what is too much, but they have been trying to confiscate some beer and spirits.

Also had issue due to caravan for first time. Told I need 2 or 3 tickets...

Hide your booze gents. Leave a token amount on show...

Apparently this is a policy for BSJ only. ACO have confirmed

2 litres of beer per person or 1 bottle of spirit.

Arrived at bsj and went through security. They didn’t do anything. Just looked at the campsite marker on the front and waved us through.

Edit:
Been through twice now after going to super U for food and beer. Again no interest in checking what is in the car. Looked at the campsite marker and waved us through. I am assuming that they note I’m on a private site in bsj and I’m probably not going to cause trouble.

Return searches sometimes happen..

It’s a BJS thing.

We’ve been in once tonight with no search. 2nd time they did a search. They did move stuff around, and called a 2nd person as they did not believe we had no booze with us.

Confirmed the 2 litre / 1 bottle per day rule. It’s nuts.

No problems getting Booze into Houx. Smuggling into the circuit was 100% successful.

Ditto. Every year I read the same moaning, and every year I'm completely unaffected. Without exaggeration, we must have brought 20 slabs of French stubbies onto houx.

Yet again I say..

This was specific to BSJ

It was not hard to snuggle past security, although the search was marginally more serious than normal

Unfortunately BSJ was quieter and seemed better behaved this year. I suspect they will repeat next year....
