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!

Those are certainly beautiful birds. I have never before taken the time to really look at them. Thank you for giving me that opportunity, my dear friend.

NICK: and you LIVE in America! Don't you get them in your garden..? Or are you in upstate New York, too far north ..?
RUTH: aye I will. Lovely to hear from you!!
Oh, Gledwood, I so wish that I still had a garden! None of my neighbors have gardens, either. We all just have very, very high fences. Sad.
Hello, Gleds. I've never seen a close-up picture of a humming bird before and I didn't know they were so pretty!
They're the darlings of the bird world Gleds. None here either but I have friends in America who install feeders. One who takes amazing photographs of these tiny things. Beautiful they are.
Exquisite little wonders, they look as if they are awol from a lilliputian fairyland*!*
Humming birds come into my yard and sip nectar from my garden flowers. They are so pretty with an iridescent green color, and their wings make a hum when they fly.

NICK: ... but even if you HAD a garden, it's the wrong climate, right?
WELSHCAKES: amazing! Like tiny kingfishers ...
BAINO: I've seen those feeders. People string them on washinglines in New Mexico so the feathery swines can have a drink en route from N to S or vice-versa
BIMBIMBIE: yes ~~from fairyland!!
JANICE: I wish I could have that going on in my garden ...
Those feathers are amazing. Beautiful colors.
Wishing you a good week, Gledds.
Great post!
Love, SB.
