ann summers or the likes?
 
right :p

i believe there is one in Dubai, but they arent allowed to sell toys? is this right enough ? if so, is there anywhere else where you can buy toys?

otherwsie, legality on me bringing items in my luggage? whats the consequences of my luggage being searched, and items found? sure i will remove batteries and what not before its put into my luggage.

not that i need to explain, but i work offshore, and the missus is going mad this time away, so next time, something like this will help her while im away.

also, what about mail order posted to middle east? would be posted to her school though, as her apartment block doesnt seem to have an address, again, is this likely to be opened by customs or anything, and cause any sort of bother? she reckons the school wouldnt open the item, but surely items like this can be posted discretely? i can have it wrapped and posted myself from my home address no problem.

thanks in advance.

Apparently, if you remove the batteries and then make sure you stand the thingy vertically as it goes through the scanner there's a less chance of the monkey ruining your fun

Yup. Although, I'd also add; if you're flying solo back from the UK with one and customs catch you, you might have a little bit of explaining as to why you have one. :p

thanks for the replies folks, it will be in the big luggage bag, deffo not the hand luggage. i will put one in the bag, and see how it goes, if they confiscate it, then so be it, least i tried for her haha

what about me wrapping a package and sending it before i leave to her address, is this likely to be scanned/opened by customs ?? surely they dont have dildo sniffer dogs lol.

and the **** buddy, i think i'll give that a miss for now :thumbup:

think i will have one in my luggage, and also one sent by post, and if they both get there, then double bonus :D

cheers

told the story before but a friend of mine had hers confiscated and told
"no vagina machines in the UAE", reckon you'd only be stopped if pulled aside for a special viewing

just get some poor sap to bring one from the UK

I am the poor sap coming from the UK lol, my missus is out working in Fujairah, problem is, im bringing some alcohol aswell (Chambord, for french martini's, as she cant find any in Fujairah or Dubai) and they might be likely to open my case because of this, and then find a toy as well.

maybe i'll tell her she has to pick on or the other, altho i know the drink will be staying at home :thumbsup:

again, does anyone know much about me mailing a package from home, and the likelyhood of it being opened by customs??

I'm unable to comment on packages being opened, but you can pretty much guarantee that everything will go through the scanner.

Last time I came back from the UK - with a couple of toys for 'er indoors - I placed them in between a couple of cast iron Le Creuset pans I'd brought back. Even though they put the bags through the scanner, I wasn't asked to open them up for inspection.
