Not sure whether this affected the price of cigars in France though.Comment

Its deffo cheaper and easier to go to Belgium for smoking material.
Really easy to find a tabaconist in Belgium and only takes about 30/40 mins to get there and find one.Comment

There were coachloads from Essex and Kent.
They even had a little caravan selling teas and hotdogs with a sign saying "PG Tips sold here". Tragic really.
