rofl




I might have recreated one or two of these in my university days, (purely in homage to Danny you understand) but that was a few decaes ago.

as i recall, quite a few Rizla King size and an assortment of the finest of herbs was required, ohh and a blackbelt in Origami.

Errr, as I recall, when we tried this at uni, we wrapped many, many king sized Rizlas around a broom handle, then sort of stuffed the required contents into them after carefully withdrawing the Rizla 'tube'. It wasn't carrot shaped, the contents kept falling out of the end so you had to smoke with the end of the beasty pointing upwards, but it sort of worked.

We were never short of 'funny' tobacco either as one of my Greek mates was a bit handy with his green fingers, you could smell him drying various plant parts out in his oven in halls long before you got anywhere near the building. To this day I have no idea how he got away with it, especially as he had a bloody great bush growing in his room, they used to move it around the floor he was on so it would get the best sunlight throughout the day.

Right, here's the plan. First, we go in there and get wrecked, then we eat a pork pie, then we drop a couple of Surmontil-50's each, means we'll miss out on Monday and come up smiling Tuesday morning.

Fantastic film, and my fave of all time!

First saw this in 1987 at the cinema. My girlfriend at the time persuaded me to go, and I'm glad she did. I honestly didn't know what to expect!

The BEST FILM EVER.
With a very difficult to obtain/expensive soundtrack CD due to licencing issues surrounding the Hendrix tracks at the time....
....so I'm putting together my own. I've managed to find all but one - 'Hang out the stars in Indiana' by the New Mayfair Dance Orchestra...
Can anyone help ? Linky etc ?
