Would have been funnier if you said "I've had camels balls before they are really nice" as that could have been taken so far out of context if that picture wasn't there.

One part of that article that amused me was the bit about laughing gas:
Once the preserve of 15-year-olds watching Wheatus at the Reading festival.

Pointless exercise. While I believe the danger posed by 'legal highs' should be addressed, simply criminalising their use is not the answer. The production of these substances will become even more clandestine and will lead to more deaths as users take more risks to to obtain them. As always, users/addicts will suffer the consequences ending up with criminal records while those at the top of the chain continue to produce and sell their product with little fear of being caught. There's also the fact that chemists will continue to make legal highs by slightly altering the synthetic process. It's difficult to legislate against drugs yet to be made - it's all a complete mess if you ask me.
People who want to get high will always find a way of doing so and, in turn, there will always be people willing to fulfil their needs. Demand can be reduced but never eradicated.

I may have got the wrong end of the stick, but it looks like they're trying to rewrite the misuse of drugs act to accommodate this? The misuse of drugs act appears to ban substances by their chemical compound, so by changing the compound slightly, it'd potentially become legal again. I read the article as them banning anything that is a high, but then adding excludes for the likes of alcohol, caffeine and tobacco.
The problem with a complete ban is that the people determined to have them will find alternatives. There's not too much difference in the price between them and cheap (fake) ecstasy. This for example as a legal high replacement could present a much bigger problem.

I may have mis-read the article.
There will always be a way to circumvent the law in some way though.
When long-established 'illegal' highs pose less risks to users than the 'newer' legal highs available - you know there's something wrong somewhere.

I can remember the days a single Ecstasy Pill would cost up to 15 quid and some lads I knew would take sniff Coke through a rolled up £20 note and one lad I knew used a £50 as he said 'I want people to think I am minted' though I would not be surprised if the £50 note was a forgery...
What that has to do with anything I don't know, was just thinking about it lol
Don't suppose anyone knows where the nearest toilet to Consett Bus Station is?

If you come out of the bus station, and walk down the street past Iceland (and you'll walk past Argos too), you'll come to a Wetherspoons pub (The company row). Literally a 2 min walk.
Seen something on the news this morning...
Russia slapping travel bans on politicians and others from EU countries, EU chiefs are fuming about it...
What have they got to be angry about? Aren't us, the EU and America doing exactly the same on prominent Russians to stop them travelling here or the US, I don't really understand what the problem is when it is going on from both sides

Does celebrating the commencement of groundworks at Dalton Park on the sabbath, and praising the lord in recognition of work that's about to take place, constitute sacrilege?
Coincidently, I was at Dalton Park on Friday for around half-an-hour before heading off into Sunderland.

Has anyone had the little icon appear on their toolbar for Windows 10?
Some sort of pre-order scheme going on for a limited time.

Windows 10 will be worse than 7, 8 and 9. You probably all know my hatred for Windows 7.
They skipped 9 and went from 8 to 8.1 to 10.
You'll have to do it sometime, as they'll stop supporting windows 7 soon.
