I know all too well. It's an awful state of affairs, in my opinion bouncers should search everyone coming into a pub or club round the town, it needs to be done.

I understand what you're saying, but it's just not practical. I know that lots of people view doorstaff with a great deal of contempt, but rest assured that if any of them caught somebody spiking drinks, the culprit would be dealt with. (The good old fashioned way, not with the police)

You're wrong

The lastest thing with the date rape drug, is to spike the men's drinks, then rob their wallets later.

It was me that stole them.

Seriously, I don't know how common drinks spiked with drugs are, but I shall share my tale...

Those of you that have met me socially know I like to get jolly when I have a drink, which sadly isn't very often these days. I have a drink, I get silly, but I always remember most of what I did, even if it is through an alcoholic haze.

Six years ago, at my old firm's Christmas do, we went to a Chinese restaurant in Soho. I had six vodka and tonics whilst in the restaurant. I remember leaving the restaurant by the stairs, and saying goodbye to the people I worked with. This was at 9.45 pm.

The next thing I remember was waking up at Morden underground station, sat on a bench in the snow. It was so far past my stop that it was above ground. I looked at my watch and it was two o'clock. Shocked, I thought I must have been asleep there for hours. In an area I didn't know I wandered around until I managed to flag down a cab, and luckily had enough money to get home.

The next day at work, feeling a bit worse for wear, people kept saying what a hoot I'd been the night before. Fair enough, I always give value for money. It wasn't until people started talking about me getting told of by a copper for sitting on a motorbike, as well as it setting it's alarm off, that I started to think they were taking the proverbial. However when they said that I'd nearly caused a fight between a few Man U players, after I got a bit too friendly with Peter Schmeichel, whilst in a club in behind Liberty's, that I knew they were making it up.

Sadly, or happily, they later in the day produced photographic evidence of my exploits, both on the bike and with the MUFC boys.

I would have sworn on my Mother's life that after the restaurant I'd caught the tube home, and that I must have gone past my stop and fell asleep in the snow. It was only the photographs that convinced me that I had been to those places in my 'missing' four hours.

Did someone I worked with spike my drink? I don't know. What I do know is that in the twenty five years I've been drinking, nothing like that has ever happened, either before or since. I still have no recollection of doing anything in those four hours.

Who knows?

Happily nothing like it has happened to me again.

Caution is wise.

If it was so called work mates that did the deed I would be after them with a large heavy object to teach em a lesson they wouldnt forget. It goes to show it can happen to anyone.

Doug · 16-11-2006, 23:33

I remember many a night waking up and not knowing what the hell I'd done, I don't think I was ever spiked, just stupid.

How could I prove it?

I know some of them took recreational drugs, they could easily have got hold of it.

Luckily I'm big and bad enough that nothing awful happened to me.
