    so, true story - In 1991 I had been selling beans for a while. I’d been raided a couple of times but they’d never found anything. The third time they found 2 purple ohms wrapped in a bit of clingfilm stuck between 2 credit cards in my wallet. I had actually forgotten they were there if I’m honest. Like a total twat, rather than just putting my hands up I decided that as I had some form from a couple of years earlier I would go not guilty and I concocted some story about a girl buying 4 trips and putting 2 in my wallet as she didn’t have any pockets but forgetting to retrieve them (terrible i know)
    Long story short, defiant to the end it went all the way to Oxford crown Court where I pleaded not guilty to possession of Lysergic acid (street value £6)
    The Jury took 30 mins to find me guilty and the Rt. Hon Judge Mead sentenced me to 12 months imprisonment which I did at Shepton Mallet and Dartmoor. I was 25 at the time and I didn’t enjoy it but it wasn’t that bad either. my bottom remained intact throughout and I learned to make a pretty decent homebrew from rice, potatoes, apples, sugar and yeast pinched from the bakery, which helped the time pass.

    I’m pretty sure that going back to jail today would be a completely different story.

      Shit-and-smellit doesn’t need a prison. Just being sent to the town is a sentance in itself!

      I had friend in prison way back then. I can’t remember if he was in your prison or somewhere down that way. His name was Jody & had ginger hair.

      Hasnt anyone got an ‘I got sent down and was bummed incessantly for 12 months’ story?

        Lol. Fighting off the lads in the shower to get to pick up the soap 1st

        Big Herc stories are enough to keep me well away from a life of crime.

        I think I’ve told this one before - transited through Qatar airport with the missus - through security, even got patted down. Got to the airport hotel and checked the small jeans pocket - two tablets. Once again, I nearly passed out - life could be so different - they patted me down for fuck’s sake. Wish I hadn’t told the missus - what a mithering I got, especially when I suggested I hang on to them for the Maldives. Had to flush them and had a little cry.

          Millsy had they been found, it would been hard labour for life territory. And we’ll deserved for being an unchecking clown.

          Me & my cousin flew back to England form India but decided to stop off in Dubai for a few days to visit an English friend. My cousin smuggled a toller of Manali cream as gift for our mate. Our mate got so paranoid he wouldn’t smoke it in his apartment or even down on the beach. I think he binned after we left.

          Dubman no hindsight in kazakhstan, brother. 10 tabs of lsd in cell in 1995! baksheesh? what baksheesh!

          Along_the_Wire Gotta say Grant, I think that one can’t he filed under mithering. Jezuz christ.
