Default So a funny thing happend tonight - visit from the police

Just had a visit from the boys in blue seems that they have cause to think i'm involved in plants of a certain "herbalistic" nature

Anyways to cut a long story short...............

We got a delivery of plants the other week...... unfortunately we were out and our neighbour kindly took delivery of them for me and kept them at their house until we returned .

only thing is while they were at their house some people were out walking from the village near where we live and got talking to our neighbours about us.

who are the people in that house, is that the footballers house, is he famous, they must be rich blah blah blah......

now our neighbours being kind and incredibly nice decieded to stick up for us and say no no not at all. "he's a drug dealer you know" to which they replied you are joking, at which point my neighbour deciedes to pull a leaf off our plants roll it and put it into a roll up cigarrette.

now at this point the people think he's serious and obviously called the old bill

having said all this the police me and eventually when it all came out my neighbour can't believe people believed we were actually selling............


class a LAURELS


really scary thing in in another thread earlier today someone joked i was a drug dealer.



my ribs still hurt from laughing, however at the time my other end was going 50p , 5p, 50p, 5p

unbelieveable I know, worst thing was it was a friend of mine that came round. He "voluntered" to come out when he say the particulars as he thought someone was having a laugh.

he had to treat is seriously though, especially when confronted with rows & rows of "evidence"

---Constituents---Leaves possess narcotic poisoning properties

---Medicinal Action and Uses---Indians are said to use the expressed juice of the leaves or a strong decoction of them to commit suicide.

Amazing what you can find on the web these days...

Paul, you didn't see the bottom of the page where it says "this info is from 1900 and might not be accurate any more"

Seriously, I'm sure I saw recently a link between laurel and narcotics, but can't find anything, so maybe I'm mistaken. IIRC ajm's the botanist (of sorts?), perhaps he can help.

I think the stuff the Indians toked was Bay leaves from Bay Laurel, whereas the laurel we use as hedges here is Cherry Laurel. I guess it may contain the same substances, but the cyanide cherry laurel contains is likely to get you before you reach a "shamen-like" trance!

Similar run in with the law.

My in laws live on a farm, the farm has a barn into which everything goes, its a store room, workshop, garage and dump, my brother in law was doing some drilling, this neccesitated pulling a plug out, job done off he wanders, few days later an evil smell is filling the barn, the pillock only unplugged the meat freezer, about 50 kilos of spoilt beef, chickens, sausages etc etc ruined.

Anyway,

rather than have it in a car, they hitch a trailer to the ride on mower and drag the lot into the woods on their land, they then cover it over with a modest layer of topsoil.

Few days later, the Police arrive, full on scenes of crimes stuff, white tent, apparently a lady waliking her dog (tresspassing) discovered human remains, or well the dog did, she was very traumatized when the dog started enthusiastically digging and devouring ,she dragged it off and called the Police.

My father in law explained what had happened and started laughing, the copper tried to tell him off for burying the meat, he then realised what he sounded like and starting p1ssing himself as well.
