    Re reading "An Incredible Life" by Trevor Macdonald ( 2019 ), I had forgotten that Trump has written book/s about his life. In one, he plainly states " I play to peoples fantasies". Good to know that not everything he says is untrue :biggrin:

        Geezer on the news this morning was caught with his loft full of cannabis plants, his defence was he didn't know what kind of plants they were.:biggrin:

        Probably just liked the aroma.

            It's a popular form of loft insulation - green rather than that dirty yellow colour and no doubt pays for itself a darn sight quicker. Bit disappointing tho if he thought he was going to be picking some early tomatoes :biggrin:

                My FIL lived next to a house with cannabis being grown in the loft. The chaps had diverted the electricity (we wondered why they had lifted up just some of the bricks in the drive). My FIL thought it was funny that if he went to the loo in the night and turned on the light, the neighbour would turn their lights off. We also thought it odd that the curtains were shut. We were just thinking of telling the police, but were beaten to it by them raiding the place . Apparently the glass back door was smashed and out came loads of blokes, who scattered. Eventually the grow bags and compost were thrown out onto the back lawn. They did give off an aroma. In the end the house, which had been rented, was sold to a young couple - the bloke used to come out and smoke cannabis on the patio! Maybe he found a stash hidden in the loft.

                  People seem to just smoke it walking down the streets now, I dont think anyone cares much anymore.

                    I don't care for smoking it. My son gave me a couple of joints as a b'day present last year and I still have them.

                        Buy one flavour a week during Lent, freeze, then Easter Sunday tuck in.
