Here is a moment to share with you.
Before the blotting paper tabs turned up used to get it in a small brown bottle with an eye dropper so you could pop a few droplets onto the tongue and wash it down.
Kicked in pretty quick for sure. Remember once being in London years back with some mates and we dropped some sitting around the statue of Eros in Piccadilly Circus one evening so we could trip out on all the lights etc.- magic !! It eventually got so intense that we decided to leave but 'our world' was so distorted none of us could judge the traffic speed and get across the road. Eventually we managed it and headed off up Regent Street still trying to control our trip.
By then it was quite late and it had started to rain slowly with big droplets casting black circles on the pale pavement flags - f*ck me if they didn't change into black beetles. We must have looked a right bunch as we were trying to step around them but the faster the rain fell it became impossible - one lad reckoned he could even hear them crunch when he stood on a rain spot.
That was 'real' or seemed that way. We managed to straighten ourselves out a bit, eventually ending up in the safe haven someones flat with a few beers and smokes - I think.
All was well in the end of course - just an assisted creation of a vivid imagination.
Thanks to Trad etc for jogging the old memory - eeee the good old days
Anyone got the link???
