Most of these come from my
Random blog, which is an electronic scrapbook of stuff I thought I might like to view at some time or other. For those who want to view stuff on drugs I've collected the very best links here. Unless otherwise stated these are full-length features, usually an hour or more.
If you have a slow connexion and are unused to viewing multiscreen films on Youtube here's what to do: click the first one and play on mute, stopping and starting as it does. Then, when it's done, click on Repeat Play and you get the full entertainment without interruption. While you watch screen one, do the same to screens 2, 3 and so on. So as each bit finishes, the next part's ready and waiting.
Mexican Black Tar Heroin: "
Dark End"
Khun Sa, whose name meant Prince Prosperous, had been, before his death in the mid 2000s, the world's biggest dealer in China White Heroin: "
Lord of the Golden Triangle"
In-depth portrait of the Afghan heroin trade at its very height. Includes heroin-lab bust. "
Afghanistan's Fateful Harvest"
Classic miniseries whose title became a catchphrase for the misery of life in East Asian prison. Nicole Kidman plays a privileged middle-class girl set up to mule heroin through Thai customs with the inevitable consequences. This is so long it had to be posted in two parts. "
Bangkok Hilton 1" (first 2 hours or so); "
Bangkok Hilton 2" (last couple of hours).
Short film: from tapwater-clear H4 in the USA to murky black Afghan brown in Norway: "
Heroin Addicts Speak"
Before his untimely death this guy kept a video diary. Here's the hour-long highlights as broadcast on BBC TV: "
Ben: Diary of a Heroin Addict". Thanks to
Noah for the original link.
Some of the most entertaining scenes from Britain's top soap (as much for the poor research as anything else). Not even Phil Mitchell would go from nought to multi-hundred pound binges this fast: "
Phil Mitchell on Crack" (just over 5 minutes).
Scientist lady shows us how to cook up gear: "
How Much Citric?" Lucky cow: her brown is 70% purity! Oddly we never see her actually do her hit... maybe she got camera shy...
And lastly:
German documentary following a life from teenage addiction to untimely death before the age of 30. The decline in this girl's appearance is truly shocking. "
Süchtig: Protokoll einer Hilflosigkeit". Sorry no subtitles; this is here for anyone learning German who's after practice material a little more gripping than Lindenstraße!
THIS IS MY FRIEND WELSHCAKES' DOG SIMI taking a rest after an exhausting fur-cut. Isn't she the cutest little trotterdonkey you've ever seen? Her coat is spun of pure gold. I hope Welshkcakes keeps the cuttings. Perhaps if you plant them, they'll grow into a gold-tree...

Simi is a little darling!
She's a sweetheart for sure - but really - there's few dogs I don't fall in love with.
Simi says: Hi, Uncle Gleds! Fancy finding ME on your bloggie! I am very flattered and I'm in German too! Lots of kissies and wags, Simi xxxx woof!
Jeannie: isn't Simi the best?!
Simi: :-)
Yes, she is very cute. Now, with that out of the way, why is it you have no Asian spammers leaving messages. Am I THAT special? I think not.
hi "there"...
mad at me? you shouldn't be. i just convinced that you're a very special person, not someone to leave aside just whishing you to get beeter soon.
and believe me, i know what i'm talking about. i had years of therapy behind me. i know very well how depressions do feel like.
i'm still getting times, when i almost loose the battle.
keep your chin up! i'm thinking fo you!

AR: have you got that word recognition thing? I did start getting spam but that stopped it. It wasn't as good as your spam though, not by a long way
It's the comments like "I love your blog please come and read mine" and theirs is in friggin' Chinese anyway. Those ones get me %-/...{}
Ela: Mad at you?! Did you really think that? Or were you joking, I can't tell... I'm not even mildly annoyed.
I tried antidepressants. Every time ~ side effects. That got worse and worse, so I would be scared to take them now.
I tried counselling. I think it is down to how good your counsellor is.
I found one really good one, who as far as I know only works voluntarily one day a week. I don't think she's a professional counsellor.
Her specialty was psychodynamic counselling. If you're going to do it go the "whole hog" ~ definitely! That's my way...
My feelings to counselling are v mixed. It is bc of counselling that I am able to reden on and on here. If I'd never had it I think I'd be closed up still.
My problem is I can go in the room and talk talk talk and it seems pertinent but I'm dancing round the issue
Thanks v much for the good wishes :-)
:-)
Herrlich! Ich mag Deine Geschichten und Dein Deutsch.
Und Simi! :-)
Herzlichst und mit Grüessli

Gledwood, ein wirklich wunderschöner Hund und in der Tat: Das Fell sieht aus wie gesponnenes Gold.
Lieb Grüße

Franziska: Simi ist am schönsten, nicht wahr? :-)
Irmi: sehr gut! Schande, dass Simi ein Mischlinghündchen ist ~ halb Yorkshire Terrier; halb wer wisst was? Anderfalls könnte es viele goldenen läffenden Simi-Babies geben!
Der Hund ist süss, aber meine Katzen sind noch süsser (hehehe)
Was für eine Katze kann besser als ein goldener Hund sein? Ein Diamantmoire?!? Vielleicht ist Arthur ein Platinkatze..?
