JW posted a rule of thumb guide to these quantative terms, but I can't remember the exact definitions.

The Phantom Posted November 20, 2023 Share Posted November 20, 2023 Anyone got any info for where this happened? I've heard rumours of a couple of fast boat drop off locations in the past. Would be interesting to know if it's one of those, or is is just a fishing boat/yacht in a harbour. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not half as exciting or interesting as a RIB drop off at a secluded beach..... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moghrey Mie Posted November 20, 2023 Share Posted November 20, 2023 Report on Drug Use going to Tynwald on Tuesday. • 'IOM Police and Customs and Excise face unique challenges in securing the borders, but available data suggest seizures of cocaine, cannabis, and ketamine mirror market trends seen in England and Wales. Due to its geography, drugs are more expensive in the IOM compared to England, underpinning the profitability of the illicit market. Stakeholders told us that organised crime groups and other individuals involved in the drugs trade specifically targeted the IOM because of high demand for drugs, ease of access to the island (including through tourist, employment, and business travel), and perceptions of relatively less effective border security operations.'
