mike .7% of the forces tested were found positive compared to 7% of civilians tested found positive ;) and that has nothing to do with tying up up a few ragheads in a war zone, they were probably tied up with drug free/alcohol free soldiers

s.w.c

my old man was in the raf and he has told me some story and drugs was used this was ww2 the raf was flying high where my old duffer was based they even sniffed petrol to get high.

i  have met a fello who got hooked on script medicine this turned him into a speed freak, besides that he ran his own company very successfully.

for the strong mined it dont seem to have the same effect on the week minded

i remember having a alcoholic teacher in the late 70s

Course troops do it.

The majority are young 16+ year olds still with the experimenting mind set.

They do not even get kicked out straight away for failing a drugs test enless they are a high ish rank and served for a certain amount of time.

They do however get counselling and I guess get kicked if caught after that.

The fact that most class A's aren't detectable after a certain time is too easy for them to get on it on the weekend and happily pass on a Monday morning.

Main thing you have to be worried about is the guys running tings now who were once testing acid.

No you're right. Its probably just my reaction to the pompus soldiers post about drug users  that made me point it out!!!

i know at least 1 of my customers is/was  a wacky-baccy dealer, i started to suss him out when he paid me from a huge roll of notes stuffed in a back pocket and he was always on his mobile,looking over his shoulder.later proof was when one of my lads told me the dope smell from the house was high level(ive almost no sense of smell myself,cant even smell sh/t on a shoe !

 Well ,some months later when cleaning at this house i overheard a conver from up my ladder,id been wondering where the ganja-meister was and i heard 2 gossipers "how yer doin?"im fine,so sorry to hear about MARTY " Yeh,me too,wont be seeing him for quite a while".

No need saying something nice about lowestoft for me, I don't like the place.
I'm a country boy and mainly work the areas i grew up around.
Since i moved here 4 years ago i started taking on work in lowestoft again and work on the sea front each month. I haven't found sea salt on the windows to be much more effort than a routine clean. The winds are mostly westerly here which might help. 1st cleans need loads more rinsing than further inland, though.
