JulesMad Posted July 11, 2014 Share Posted July 11, 2014 Pretty cheap stuff, if you ask me.... About 8500 THB per kilo.... It is just weed, nobody goes crazy or does really stupid things, as with most other drugs.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mrfill Posted July 11, 2014 Share Posted July 11, 2014 Reasonably tightly packed, this roughly equates to a 1m x 60cm x 60cm lump Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
plachon Posted July 11, 2014 Share Posted July 11, 2014 From "the neighbouring country" indeed.....I see it is politically incorrect to even name your neighbour these days. As if it could have originated from any other place than Laos. I wonder what the Thai media are worried about? Being sued for slander by the Lao government, even when drug smuggling on a large scale is being practiced? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seems the weed caught fire and the driver was so stoned that he'd lost control and drove into the police station. Reminds me of a story of the Fabulous Furry Freak Brothers back in the old days. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Musta been Fat Freddy at the wheel. He always screwed up. Furry Freak Brothers was one of my favourite comic strips back in the day, closely followed by Crumb's stuff. I've still got a 'Fat Freddy's Cat' lapel badge stashed somewhere in the archives! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
