Ha ha, that reminds me of the Craigmile.

I remember(#) coming back fae the Craigmile one night in driving snow and the engine fell oot o' my mate Guinness's mark 2 escort. We walked back to Stockethill!

The week before the engine burst into flames going through Montrose on our way to see Rozalla and Bizarre Inc at Bally's in Arbroath. Dowsed the flames, left it half an hour and bingo. Of we went on our merry way. The days

 

(#) When I say remember I actually mean my memory is sketchy with the intake of copious drugs and the passing of time.

I hope you at least made it as far as Boxy before the engine fell out!!

Older generation?

I went to Trax! I was still at school though.

Thanks Mini for making me feel ancient.

Sorry but I was only 2 then so it is for the older types.

 

I can't view YouTube at work.....so not sure what this is.

 

However - go to YouTube and search 'Doncaster Rave' I think that's what it was under and just watch the video from start to finish.

 

(I'm presuming this is what this is about - but I'll find out when I get hame).

It's brochers having a good time oot in mintlaw.

I always thought that was a bit of a myth. The pills were better in my day, I think it's just never the same when you've been at it a while. I'm sure if i dunted a couple of whatever's going about these days it would knock my head off, having not dabbled for many a year. That's just my theory anyway cue the proper old school brigade giving it big licks!

Definitely not a myth.

 

Most of the pills in the early days were what pills should be, what they were originally designed to be, MDMA pills. 'The Love Drug', an 'upper', orgasmic...

 

Sure you got the odd 'speedy' pill (Dennis the Menace - although to be fair, they were capsules not pills) but even they had a fair amount of MDMA in them. Most of all, they were definite 'uppers'.

 

From about 1993/94 onwards, most pills ended with you sitting in the corner chewing your face off. You still felt ace but just not the same.

 

And after Leah Betts, the whole E thing just went tits up and has never recovered. Last time I had a proper good pill was circa '95. Best pill ever was Edinburgh Uni student union '91, I reckon I was the only fucker in the place on E, didn't stop me enjoying myself. :dancin:

You're forgetting Mitsis - Mitsis were great when they first came out

Still remember my first E. Only way to describe it is that I felt like the Readybrek man and was like like I was emitting a glow.

 

Fine times. Not interested anymore though. Was great at the time but am far too old for that now.

I remember getting some "Rolls Royce" chats from a lad I know (in Montrose funnily enough) years ago and they were dynamite.

 

Without a doubt the best ones I've ever taken.

 

Don't think I'd handle the come down these days though. Not so bad with a good old night on the Tony Montana but I'd be death warmed up after a night on the old ecto plasms these days.

There are some super eckies on the go at the moment, 4 or 5 regular Es concentrated into one, grinding yer teeth to FUCK... apparently.

Gotten involved with some sweeties recently and has absolutely ruined me for the whole of the next day.

 

Just can't cope anymore. When I was 19 year old it actually gave me a boost that lasted a week and made just about everything sound like shit hot music.

 

Drugs are shit or I am old. Reckon it's the latter.

I think we're the same age. (36)

 

That's past it in disco biscuit years. :ThumbsDown:

I had some purified MDMA a good few years ago - was the last time ever.

 

Nearly spewed my ringer off a pretty small amount, but was unbelievably good for a while. From what I remember, 4 of us shared a gram - one went home early and we gave about a quarter of it away as too much to handle. Fuck knows what the recipient made of it....

 

Wouldn't trust one these days generally - I knew the chemist involved on this occasion, so knew it was Ronseal.

Fair play 1991 is a bit before my time, but I still remember my first few and I was floating 3 feet off the floor telling everyone how much I loved them. Those pills did seem to last for 3 or 4 days afterwards, with no come down at all I would wake up the next day feeling fucking ace still loving the world, it wasn't long before the come downs hit though and from then it was a gradual down hill with less highs, more pills and bigger come downs. I had some fucking fantastic nights on the chats though and I don't regret one bit of it, equally though I'm glad those days are behind me too much shenanigans when you're on the wrong side of 30. It's probably a good job they don't make 'em like they used to or we'd all still be at it!
