I got caught bringing 8000 fags back from gran canaria in Feb, they said that I either have to pay the duty on them, or take a warning and leave them!

So took the warning as duty was over £200!

It is not your responsibility to prove they are for personel consumption. It is the responsibility of Customs to prove that they are not for personel consumption, something it is very difficult to do!
