Re: Abbey Street uniform shop - drug using equipment?
Well I've just got back from my daily outing. I went to the pound shop and they do indeed have the same sort of things for sale there including tobacco grinders but I could only find images of Bob Marley, Che Guevara and a yin yang symbol on them. There are other smoking paraphernalia things with a cannabis leaf logo on them though. And horror of horrors they are located near the sweets which children buy for themselves.
I've also been into the Abbey Street shop where the Vij brothers are surprised that this has made front page news in the Telegraph, complete with a photograph of the shop and one of the owners. Note that there is no photograph of the 'offending' items and if you go into the shop you will not be able to find them because following the second hand complaint they have removed them from sale. So again I wonder why the thread opener couldn't have simply voiced his/her concerns to them and achieved the same result - unless of course that wasn't the result they wanted. The story in the newspaper implies that Greg Pope has contacted the shop and urged them to remove the items, and that someone from the council has done the same, but Mr. Vij told me that the only people who have spoken to any of them are me and the newspaper reporter. Nobody needs to 'urge' them to do anything because the stuff is no longer there. It's not as if they were being defiant and stubbornly selling offensive stuff despite people's complaints. They didn't even know that anyone had objected until they heard it from me.

The thread starter presumably.
Has anyone noticed if it's in the Observer? I meant to get one but forgot.
