 HMP La Moye by Jasen71
This may be implemented or it may not, but remember if there are no notices at your airport when you leave for Jersey, it is illegal and the sentences are going to get much harsher. You have been warned. Leave a Comment

 Fort 72 by Jasen71
The Channel Islands was one of the most heavily defended parts of Hitler's Atlantic Wall and he personally ordered the islands to be turned into fortresses, and to be defended to the last man. Hence Jersey was the last place the Nazis surrended. Liberation came the day after VE day.
It proved to be so difficult to get rid of the many concrete bunkers after the war, that they are still dotted around the coast. Many have been buried or welded shut. However many kids and even adults break in and enter these underground tombs in the vain search for helmets and equipment which is long gone. It has been know for persons to pass out, suffocate and even die due to the bad air in the tunnels and bunkers. Leave a Comment

Men are still banned from knitting during August & September! This was to ensure that they harvested the fields instead of knit!! The law passed in the 17th century still applies today. In the 16th century many knitted articles were exported to England & France. The word 'jersey' is still used in association with jumpers ..... Leave a Comment

 One Pound Note by Tea4Two
Another quirky feature is that Jersey still has a one pound note. They do produce a pound coin but somehow the note stuck around!
(NB You can use English money (i.e. from the UK) in Jersey but just be sure to have all loose change "converted" before you leave the island!!) Leave a Comment

If you are a Canadian goose you had better be aware, when flying over this tiny island that what appears to be water is not always a lake.
Jersey royal potatoes are world famous for their taste, to protect the crop; entire fields are covered in clear plastic.
This causes real problems for all wildfowl as they think they are lakes and try to land on them.
This causes hundreds of injuries each year. Leave a Comment

As Jersey is not part of the EU visitors can still purchase duty free items while enroute. The maximum allowances a visitor may take home duty free are; 200 cigarettes or 100 cigarillos or 50 cigars or 250 grammes of tobacco; 1 litre of alcoholic drink if the strength is more than 22% volume or 2 litres if the strength is not more than 22% volume or 2 litres of fortified or sparkling wine plus two litres of still table wine. 60cc/ml of Perfume and 250cc/ml of toilet water. Obviously the alcohol and cigarette allowances are for people over 18 only. The maximum personal allowance for other goods, including gifts is £145. This allowance is per person and the value of purchases cannot be combined with other members of the party. Items in excess are liable to VAT. Leave a Comment
