When I went back March a mate asked me to bring him 10 pouches of golden Virginia . I don’t smoke so just bought 10 pouches . First time ever I was stopped at Gatwick airport and told I had double the limit . My fault I had 10x50g double the allowance . I said I was sorry and explained my mistake and the chap let me off . Never again will I take stuff back . I thought they may make me pay or confiscate them . Lucky for him and me .
