Please move somewhere else..No idea where though "travel& holidays" may be a good start !

'Petard' btw is a rolled cig so probably not what you're after.

On reading the title I assumed "Pretards" was a slang for "Parisian Retards" as a insult and was settling down for another rant about the French

If this is true then is the OP not asking for advice on how to commit a crime?

"Pétard" is either a spliff or a firework, but I wouldn't fancy your chances of getting either through customs.

Certainly wouldn't try bringing them onto the plane as hand luggage anyway!!

Why not just check a phone book when you get over there?

Or if you're in a hotel ask the concierge?
