We had some good old chin-wags, whilst sat in the bath, on many a Monday afternoon.
Nice chap.
Bit of a scrounger.
Always asking to be 'lent' whatever, that once consumed, he very rarely gives you back.
Lives in a bit of a dream world, but I suppose that's a result of attempting to be educated in Essex.
Yes, people always have, and always will want to feel absolutely effin fantastic, by means of artifical stimulus.
Would l encourage a child l loved to take the risk, in the hope they're in the majority, and won't have to go on the rob, or spread their legs for some olf perv to fund a serious habit?
No.
(That question was to the forum, not myself, by the way. You should at least make an attempt at deception, when practicising that ol' time religious preachin'.)
Amen.

Ooops! I didn't know you were Mr Showbiz and I had to run it by you before deciding whether to post someone's name?
Keith's alright he has a farm down in Somerset where he spends all this free time - raising free-range chickens - so I heard or read somewhere?
While you were in the bath with him, Garinda, where you sniffing anything?
Well I suppose if you have kids and they take drugs and get hurt you will always feel the guilt that it was your fault - which I suppose is the motivation to stop them doing it - bit of a catch 22.

Er...no.
Well toasties, that old Joycie would make on request. They ponged a bit.
Sniff?
You mean like amyl-nitrate, but are too much of a pussy to say?
Again, no.
Keith Allan ain't queer, no one at the baths was.
Although Joycie was a bit odd.
She used to serve you her toasties slid off her Daily Mirror.

Only if you'd been stupid enough to encourage them, and denied the risks involved, would you.
(See other thread.)

Who's old Joycie? Can you give us insight into this world?
Yep could have been amyl nitrate, or sulphate or cocaine? Keith has been a big drug user - hasn't he!?
Isn't one of his claims to fame is that he stripped off naked on stage at a Max Bygraves performance, who then said "You'll never work in show business again!"

As I said, as you're clearly so fascinated, and I'd simply hate to spoil it for you, you'll just have to wait for the book.

Re: Should we 'legalise illegal drugs'? - Poll.
The legality of amyl-nitrate, which increases your heart rate dramatically, and causes a brief high when sniffed, is questionable.
The law's overcome by selling 'poppers', it's street name, as a 'room aroma', despite the horrible things stinking like sweaty feet.
The last place I saw these dangerous drugs openly for sale, as I posted on here at the time, was in Accrington Market Hall.
I've also seen fifty odd year olds, so called respected members of the community, sat openly sniffing them in local boozers in Hyndburn.
Disgusting things.
Despite some people saying the risks when taking recreational drugs are negligible, that's wrong.
People have died through taking this crap.
All for a temporary, chemically induced high.
So not worth the risk.
I'd certainly not return to places where it's use was tolerated.

I'd agree with you about Amyl makes you feel like your gonna have a heart attack. But Amyl Nitrate is not the same as magic mushrooms, different effect, different experience.
You are so adamantly against drugs - I just wonder how you managed as you seem to be mixing with people that would have been using them!
So did you voice your disgust in their faces? As you do in ours?

It make come as some suprise, but I've never really been influenced by dicky heads.
Same on here.
Plus, having good self-control helps.

If it is, I think one or two of your hemorrhoids might have dropped of.
Which must be a blessing.

I don't know about your life and it's not on my list of priorities to find out about the details!
The issue is if you knew some famous folks were you as vocal about being against drugs to them as you are here?
At the end of the day there are many threats to a childs life in this world - such as drinking bleach and running out in front of cars! As we become adults we can also be killed in car crashes and so on - life is full of conflict and threats to life!

As it happens I don't have piles! So you seem to be trying to fob off the issue here - typical Chameleon activities!

In some cases, not others -for to be "a pain in the arse" one must know how it really feels, surely...

Generally, drinking bleach, and running out in front of traffic, is not promoted as being something that's pleasurable.
Nor have I seen any evidence on here, of people glibly minimising the risks of doing such things. Instead, preferring to promote the thrills to be had.
The 'I drank bleach three times, but never became addicted' mentality, we've occasionally seen from some.

Probably why I'm a republican.
Much more effective to treat the unfortunate with a red-hot poker.
Short, sharp, shock.
Give, give, give.
