Thiv bin brought up wi the "You can,t touch me or al call the police!" attitude Bob but weer from an era when the police gid thi a twattin fer not steppin outa the way on the pavement for em. As far as I,m concerned a gud twattin speaks a thousand words!
It's lawless out there these days Dave, down here another 16 year old murdered another 16 year old lad, its unbelievable that they consider life so cheap these days. It all boils down to turf wars mate, and lack of home discipline, I don't give a shit about parents who say "I can't do owt with him he's uncontrollable. he's your son get a grip of him!
Know what you are saying Bob but things went skew wif with our lad Mark when he went to Comprehensive school a system far re,moved from education we were taught. Corporal punishment abolished, teachers worse than useless, school full of Pakis going round taxing white kids of their dinner money. Went up and collared the head teacher and gave him the gypsy,s warning to sort it out. Apart from slotting all the Pakis myself a complete waste of time! Kept him interested in football which he excelled at but along came the rave scene and music and drugs took over his life. Tried every thing to get him to change, all to no avail, he was hooked and sadly ended in his demise. A story that can be told by parents all over the land. The country is well and truly fukked!
I know where your coming from Dave, It must be totally devastating for both you and Val and the rest of the family mate. Something you never ever get over. Patrick went down that route and started with magic mushroom, but he had such a fright with it that luckily he walked away from the drugs scene and never went back. all a matter of circumstances mate, he was lucky!
On a lighter note I remember when we were in Tidworth and Twa Heeds went to the Stonehenge music festival. When he came back he was behaving strangely, roaring and breathing heavily at the TV the lads were watching. It turned out he'd tried cannabis cookies followed by magic mushrooms and thought he was a dragon breathing fire at the TV. He stuck to drink after that! 🤣Â
I feel for you and Val, Dave.
My biggest worry when my two were at school was drugs etc. Luckily, they never got involved in anything. On one occasion my son came in pissed and, possibly hipocritically, i went through him like a dose. Another time, came home from work and saw some cigarette smoke at our back door, i had caught her and her pal smoking. I fukkin detest smoking and the lightning bolts zapped through my brain and the red mist came down. I screamed at her pal to fukk off and never come back and grabbed my daughter by the hair and literally punched and slapped her arse and back, all the way up the stairs. She was bubbling that it was the first time they tried it. The wife smoked at the time and knew my feelings on the matter, so she could hardly complain about the 'para brutality'. The end result is, neither of them smoke and they drink much less than i do, so their 'rehabilitation'worked
Pain beats brain as Dave says! These days the daughter would take you to court and have you paying for her PTSD for life!
You always ask yourself, "What more could have we done? Sadly the drug scene seems to be the epidimic of the times we live in and never indulged myself so can,t understand the attraction. I even had several bust ups with the anabolic steroid twats at the gyms I was involved with.
A bloke I knew in Salisbury came in the pub one night and said "Here smell this" holding out a small brown bottle. Stupidly I sniffed it and was instantly hit with a blinding headache and nearly collapsed, Turned out it was Amyl Nitrate which apparently is a favourite with arse bandits to sniff while they're pushing turds uphill for some reason. Once I'd recovered I put him out of the pub via a good kick in the balls and never spoke to him again, can't understand why anyone would want to feel like that, like that spice stuff that turns them into zombies! Guinness is enough for me!
Seems to me that the herd mentality has a lot to do with taking all that shite. Becomes the thing to do so young easily lead mindsets kick in and once hooked they finish up totally fukked!

They should string the bastards who push it up!
Not that there were any drugs about when I was that age, but I was never a follower of trends so I don't think I'd've bothered.
A wuz allus too busy mesen duin spoort ta think abaht duin owt else. One o mi main hobbies wuz waitin fer the older tash ta walk daahn the street on a neet out, barnet done up in a bee hive stye, tight skirt n listenin to the legs rubbin together in nylons n wearin stilleto heels.
I'm just off to the netty, might be a while!
