I'd never smoke weed in public. Nor have I ever.
Well... maybe at the odd music festival. I do remember attending the first V Festival at Chelmsford in 1996, where we were searched on arrival at the campsite. My 1/4oz lump of hash, cunningly, so I thought, hidden in my washbag disguised in a hotel mini soap wrapper, was found by security. The chap returned it to me, saying, "Good disguise, I didn't see that, okay?" But we were then told the 48 cans of beer we'd brought along weren't permitted. Only beers purchased inside the campsite were allowed. £48 for a 24 case of Budweiser 440ml cans. Sod that!
Myself and friends passed back out, ostensibly to visit a local pub for a bite to eat, skirted the outside of the perimeter fence and found a trustworthy looking group inside who helped us smuggle in our own beers. Fortunately the campsite guard towers weren't manned during arrivals.
I know, still off topic, but happy memories. Particularly of Layla who I met and shared a smoke and a tent with. Far more agreeable than sharing with a mate as planned...
