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!

I like your furry photos. Sad to hear about Amy Winehouse. What a waste to die so young.
I remember it struck me what a mess she truly was that she could not get it together to write and record one single song for a new James Bond film, not even with several months' notice. Then I saw that the drugs had done to her what they've done to me. Stopped her achieving anything at all............
yes full moon was last thursday. Bi-polar, Schizo, Psychotic, depressive, all Lunacy . . .
I set my hampers' water bottles so they have to stand up to drink (just love their white underside)When two go to drink together they lean on/support each other just like in that photo. So sweet & so clever they are. I love them more every day. I getting a new cage tomorrow from free-cycle (now that is a good network) not sure which "family" will live in it yet.I think our "Gledwood" fooled me into thinking he was a girl (just like his mum "reginald" fooled me & pet shop person into thinking she was a man) strange family ;-) He is behaving very much like a male towards his two "flatmates" bianca & poppy. They are not always happy in threes but those 3 seem to have a very cosy "menage a trois" spect it will soon be . ."menage a huit". Anyway I wont get into hamper tales . . . . I should go to sleep. I hope you are at least fair to middling :-)
Take good care
with love

Another soulful voice, talented writer & beautiful girl fooled and comforted by the greedy, jealous monster :-( <3
I thought Itchy Roborovski was a boy bc she kept trying to climb all over Spherical. She was the one who kept coming on heat and getting pissed off at being smallest. Itchy started all the squabbles.
Bloody Amy Winehouse. I am annoyed at her because I bought both her CDs within days of one another then she goes and carks it. Couldn't even get it together to record ONE SONG for a James Bond film now that is fucked up. Seriously fucked up.
