😝….back to the streets for young Timothy…

Language, Timothy! Niche joke these days. Sorry!

Plenty more escrow controlled, peer reviewed weed marketplaces on the clearnet Tim...

😂😂…are they the ones that only use ‘honesty vetted’ posties?

Since we like to buy less than legal things on the internet, why not buy your cigs the same way?

I use Dutch Tobacconist - about 8 quid a packet (£14.30 in Tesco)

You can get cigs for half that on the dark web and it's uk-uk shipped

I like American Spirit tobacco, organic, without additives and nice and dry too.👍

Your profile pic 😂 what brand you normally smoke ?

Lt Columbo is a bit of a cheap skate with his dodgy cigars. I smoke Embassy, or i use it's tobacco I should say. This country is going to pot with prices like that. I wonder if there's a market on LB for wholesale/duty free fags?

Embassy 😂 never even heard of that one lol there is a big market for duty free fags but not on lb .. not sure if they will even allow it..

They came in red or blue packets back in the day, and for some reason we favoured the blue, but only if they'd run out of gold B&H. Both brands came with little points cards in that you could collect to trade in for things, like 10 million points for a child's paddling pool. Obviously no-one did that, and the card in a pack of 10 would make 2 decent roaches, and the card in a pack of 20 probably 3. £16ish for 20 gold B&H around my way in most shops, but I haven't checked WHSmith, who are clearly taking the piss. Not even sure why they still exist as a chain considering how many brands have gone under, and yet they still do a roaring trade in snacks, magazines and BluRay. Has to be a front for something.

There was Embassy and Embassy number 1, which was a normal size straight. The smaller ones you could win in machines at the fair!

Embassy number1 were the rolls Royce of ciggys when I was young 😂

I bought a pack of Dunhill when I was a teenager - thought I’d become part of the landed gentry.

I think I may be getting Regals (blue pack) and Embassy #1 (red pack) mixed up? They were practically interchangeable though.

Was it Superkings that started selling packs of 21 or 22? If anyone had Mayfairs they'd be mocked for presumably stealing their gran's cigs. Silently judging the Lambert & Butler offered up as a joint sacrifice when needing tobacco to skin up...

I worked for these bastards for nearly 15 years, and they sacked me for refusing a pay cut. Avoid like the plague!

I just creamed my onion! 1 of each please... Cant wait!

💔

Best unboxing video ever lol! Glad it arrived safely. Have got some personal circs...will link you in the next couple or few days. Keep one of each on promo for me along with a pap. 🙏

Ahhh yeah! Eyes on RD 👀 Watching out for this 🤤

Lol already here.. promo available until Sunday midnight

Yeah, had a look after posting the comment. I'll get my order in this weekend 👍

Considering the effort you've gone to to bring us these delicious treats it would surely be rude of me not to order 1g of each. How long is the promo price running for?

😂 Until Sunday midnight or Tuesday/Wednesday if you know the basket trick lol

I wish to subscribe to your newsletter and learn more.

Basket trick??!!! What is this lol

Lol basically if you add the promo to basket and don’t pay .. and then I remove the promo offer you can still checkout your basket with promo offer prices until your basket expires …
hopefully The explanation is confusing enough so no one understood 😂

Wouldn't most vendors respond with a polite 'fuck off' if that landed in their orders 2 days after a promo ended? Or is that how the system is set up and that's accepted?

RealD you popped my isolator cherry 🍒💨 good times

Gaaad Dammmn dazzler 😂 changed this message like 5 times now don’t know how to reply..

😘

my experience is that smoking adds days to sickness, edibles w a cbd component subtracts them.

I think having a cold or the flu is the only time I ever give myself a tolerance break. You know you're over the worst when you can handle a spliff again.

What a disaster yes. In a good way makes your smoke last longer haha. But smelling your neibours whilst you cant smoke yours really hits home lol il probably go and get a cold now saying all this. Bless

Late night post about the good old “back in the day” days


Definitely high 😂

Back in the day days are the best, nowadays is just stress! 😂

Hi Columbo

I ranted extensively about this a few weeks back.

First I found myself unable to buy BCs on Coinbase then after trying half a dozen of the other LB recommended exchanges it became obvious that it was my UK bank blockign the purchase.

I freaked out man, 4 months after signing up with LB I found myself willing and able to purchase BCs but with nowhere to go.

In the end I ended up signing up with eToro as it is the only fully FCA approved exchange.

i could buy some BCs form my UK bank but there is a 60 days wait before being able to transfer the BCs into the eToro wallet.

Good thing I squirelled away a couple of oz :-)

As pollypuff says Governments and the banking sector are clamping down our use of crypto.

You'll have an easier time getting rich by selling unusable PPE to the UK Gov (if you have the right connection that is).

Yeah I've done some googling, and currently my bank has restrictions but still able to buy but there some sort of algorithms involved cos I tried with one amount and computer said no! And my stomach instantly dropped with the coinbase mssg that account will be locked if another declined transaction takes place, tried again with £5 more and it went through so now i have an amount and i will just stick to it. Its all all very shady, should've just moved to Amsterdam in the early days when young and free, would've been set up with a life less hectic than here with the best smoke and maybe not so best but pretty stoned ho's on tap 😂

I feel your pain.

This place is a Godsend and the thought of being unable to buy here is a downright nightmare scenario for me too.

As I said if eToro is FCA endorsed I expect most UK banks to rubberstamp eToro transactions.

Besides the wait I am still pondering using a second wallet to transfer out of the eToro wallet before paying.

Expensive way to buy coins tho. What about Monzo/Revolut?

Hi CosmicFlames

Yes Revolut is on my list of things to investigate but right now all of my BCs are on eToro so I'll wait until mid-Jan to see how that goes.

I'll report to the Biggas once I'll havebeen able to purchase from the eToro wallet.

The future of crypto as a method of payment by individual transaction is not bright imo.

Blockchain tech will find many uses…but “coin”….nah….they are not going to allow it…..🤷‍♂️

If you use Bittylicious it is done through BACS transfer so no worries about purchases being cancelled. I’ve been using them for a while now and never had a problem.

Buy an NFT using a marketplace that allows debit card payments, instantly floor that jpeg at a loss and pay the 10% royalties. Then either swap or bridge that crypto into bitcorn and there you will have 1% of the value left to buy your smoke. Just rinse and repeat until you have enough for your order. NFA

But I love my jpeg lol!

Just wow, perhaps my sarcasm detector is off so I'll bite in case you're being serious.

There is a reason this site is a popular clear net site when there are many many dark net, ig and tele weed sales channels. Whilst you may be trying to help, this would require much greater explanation to ensure safe transactions.

People want simplicity, speed and convienence. Your method is valid, it wouldn't help the majority though.

try wirex, its quick from topup to sending but you need to validate, you can use credit card or debit to topup then convert to btc

Anyone tried revolut yet? I have signed up but not purchased

they didnt let you send crypto externally when i looked at them, lets you buy buts its all held on the app with no external transfer options. on the flip side for holders its a safe way to store as i think i read it was insured.

Has anyone tried crypto.com? We use them sometimes and seem pretty safe.

We also receive a lot of payments from binance accounts.

One of the sketchiest of them all bro. Anywhere offering stupid amounts of roi through staking is a no no.

It's only a no no if you don't know how to use an unstake & sell button. Otherwise no harm in chasing those 395737284940274738% APY yield farms for a day or two 🤠🫴

Hey, i get thunderclap headaches, they usually range from 10-20 seconds every few hours, i find personally that weed helps decrease the time that they persist and increases the length between each one.

Though i've heared its different for other people, its really a per-person thing, not everyones body will react the same way

I've had my worst day today in a couple of yrs, have had to take more triptans than i would normally have taken in a day. Mine are debilitating, a piercing pain right behind my eyeball, enough to bring a man to tears. Without Triptans I'd have to long it out now i have to revert to my old way of dealing with them... As soon as i get the tingle telling me its in the post, i bosh 2 Soluble paracetamol, 2 400mg ibuprofen and 1 triptan, endure the pain and blurred vision for 45mins to 1hr and then as quick as it came on, it goes like it was never there. Now i just have constant anxiety thinking about when the next one will strike 🤕

I’m get ‘stasis migrainosus’ which is probably one of the worst, mine last for a couple of days.
I usually get the visual aura or ‘stars/lightening’ effects that mean I can’t see properly or do anything including driving.
Then comes the headache that tails off for a couple of days, nausea and some numbness in hands and face. The actual migraine lasts around a couple of hours but the after effects last a couple of days.
To be honest I wouldn’t wish it on anyone, it horrible.
Luckily I get them very rarely and it’s usually certain food groups that trigger it. And I’ve had them since I was about 10. I’m in my mid 50s now.
I’ve only ever really smoked hash for many years.
I’m not sure if it has actually helped me with migraines though,
It’s certainly not made it worse so I guess that’s a plus!! :)

I'm sure you already know that LSD was discovered whilst researching for a migraine cure, and indeed psychedelics (including mushrooms) more recently have been involved in studies for those with migraine.
I don't know how or if this is linked to theraputic THC.

Hey bud my orders are all coming through fine and being sent out. Don’t think there’s an issue on here with that other than being abit slow Eddy

Not done it myself but been hanging around reading the topics tonight and people are successfully ordering.
Personally, hoping clearnet stabilizes soon to place my xmas order but really, Society is fine.

the cali hash, isolator hash and shatter will be the first products to come back online/made available.

I failed you 😔 🥺

Will be back don’t worry just popping down to the shops for some milk 😂

On a serious note I’ll keep everyone updated until further notice

For sure, hope all is well RD.🤞

?

LB won't let me add a link to RD's page, but it's down, says 'sorry, access restricted'.
At least two days now.

Yeah think it’s cause I changed the privacy in settings.. I’ll change that back in couple days… just lurking around for now until futher notice..

I had a big problem last couple days with blockchain taking more than a day to confirm transaction. Hope your issue is just silly internets too.
As long as you're ok tho, glad you responded.

I’m good thanks I should have a update soon probably few days

Any comms?
I think the order auto cancels if it’s not marked sent in 36 hours?

🤞🤞

When you say auto cancels, does that means funds are refunded or lost?!

Auto refunds via transaxe…👍

That's good to know on an unsent item, I didnt know this. Appreciate a link to any guidance or t's&c's when this happens on the site. I suppose its different when it says sent and just doesn't come, which I haven't had to experience my self but this is the first long silence and nothing sent issue I've had. Let's wait and see 👍

I have. Sometimes errors are made and mistakes happen. The vendor should come through if it's a popular one though. I made an order with a popular vendor and paid NDD. Ordered Thursday and it didn't arrive Friday. Allowed another day in case it got held up and still didn't arrive on the Saturday. I messaged them and got a response on the Sunday. They checked it out and come back to me with apologies. It had been missed and not even sent. They sent it on the Monday and I got it Tuesday. Shit happens 🤷‍♂️

I have a little faith, they are normal people and have lives outside of this... still, puts me out a bit and the whole idea of ndd kind of goes out the window, it's the not knowing is what it is and the ndd fee of course lol! I'm hoping today or tonight as it is with most vendors on here will be the one, will they or won't they? And that feeling of disappointment when you know its not gonna happen. I havent named the vendor but they gave never faulted in the past with any order so remain hopeful, if nothing else the lack of having it for a few days might lower my tolerance lvls and when it does come, it'll be that much better.
Rock on Biggas!
Will update and name vendor with nothing but praise if and when they do come through and mssg back.

It is different if you were expecting it and are dry until it does land, but yeah, little unexpected t-breaks can be a good thing 😁 It's the cost as well, I know. You've paid for it. If it's a trusted vendor that you've had no issues with in the past, I'd allow a little cock up now and then. They'll come through mate, I'm sure 👍

I mainly use it to keep my stress levels under control. I would find myself getting super stressed about silly things. So much so that I could feel my blood pumping around my body. I've never been aggressive or violent, but I would constantly be stressed out. To start with I was trying to control it with Stella and super string cider. Then I found myself with a constant acid burning feeling in my belly.. then 4 years ago my misses suggested I made the change to weed and I have never looked back. Although it does make me lazy sometimes haha. But I'd rather have that than have a heart attack at 46 lol

lol, defitenely alcoohol in the long run wouldn't have helped you much, it would have really destroyed body and soul. thank god you listened to your misses, wise change. don't forget the simple things, walk barefoot in nature once in a while with your misses, quality time in nature. she saved you with that suggestion lol.

peace and love to you both, tgt x.

Thanks man I'm certainly a different man now. I will tell her what you said, very kind. Wishing you and the team much love and peace too and thanks for your suggestion we will walk with nature at the weekend x

happy to know!
tgt x

I'm gonna apologise up front. Didn't intend to make this a long post but it's mad the things you remember when you're baked and start writing 🙈🤣.

TLDR: shit happens and weed helps.


Had back problems for years due to a protruding disc, that was mis-diagnosed because I started with psoriatic arthritis around the same time(2009ish).

Weed helped me with pain relief alongside co-codamol, but I also found it good for appetite, sleep and just my all round mood and mental health while I went through the methotrexate, sulfasalazine, leflunomide, humira ordeal trying to free up my joints so I could get back to work.
MRI scan found the dodgy disc around 2015, had surgery to shave off the protruding bit but that didn't work very well so it was 4 years or so of epidural steroid and nerve blocking injections (evil procedure to go through 😖), NSAIDs, gabapentin and sitting on the waiting list for fusion surgery.

Life got interesting when I had the fusion done at the end of 2019. Initially it was amazing.
Sciatica gone.

After a couple of months of recovery and rehab, I was in a lot less pain, cutting down on the co-codamol and thinking about starting to come off the gabapentin, and just using the weed to relax and ease the remaining aches and pains, that were a lot more manageable, at the end of the day.

Much success 💪

So may 2020, middle of the initial covid meltdown, I've been back in work full time for 3 and a half weeks working on home extension, already worried about the possibility of being banned from working ("they wouldn't close the entire country down, would they?" 😷👀).

5am. I'm in the kitchen doing stretching exercises and drinking tea while I wait for my morning round of pills to start working.
I'd been giving myself a couple of hours to get get my body in gear every morning before being picked up.

I was leaning over the breakfast bar, using it to lift most of my weight up off my feet to stretch the bottom of my back out. I lowered myself down and took a step towards the kettle on my right and SNAP!
Left leg gone 🙈
tibia and fibula both completely separated and my foot/ankle wobbling about whilst I lay on the deck screaming.

9 days in hospital with no visits allowed waiting for a surgeon to glue me back together and I'm back home with a bottle of morphine and an 18 inch titanium bar with 16 screws stopping the wobble.

The surgical wounds took a loooong time to heal up and I wasn't discharged until January 2021. Took me a while to start trusting my new bionic left leg, but by March I was back on light duties at work and starting to feel a little bit more positive about the world.

This time I managed 2 weeks of being a productive member of society before a flipping egg yolk size blister appeared on my shin, burst and carried on leaking what I thought was blood.

It actually took them nearly 4 weeks to get me in for an "emergency" xray that showed osteomyelitis had travelled along 3 of the screws, into the bone and along the titanium, which basically required removal of all metalwork, a tablespoon size chunk of bone scraped out and one of those fancy pico dressings for a month while the massive hole on my shin tried to close up.

Mean time, the sciatica is back due to "irritation" of the nerve, and I'm hobbling around on a leg that i trust less than I'd trust Michael Jackson to babysit my kids.
My head is fooked.
I think I may have ptsd.
Pain clinic won't do anything until I've had counselling, that I've been waiting for since October 2021, and it feels like the pain specialist's attitude is basically deal with it 🤷🏻‍♂️

Body is knackered, head is knackered, I applied for pip in June 2021 and am still waiting for a tribunal date after being diagnosed fully able bodied over the phone.

So for all of that shit 👆 (there's more but most have probably given up reading by now 🤣), the one constant comfort has been the beautiful miss Mary Jane and her ability to stop me from feeling like shit 24/7 365.
She's helped me to deal with an absolute shit hand of cards, in many ways, and I love her very much 🥰😅.

If you got this far, we'll done! Treat yourself to a cannabis product of your choosing 😉👍

Wowzer…I will never moan about my spinal issues again! 😵‍💫

Good luck with it all buddy 👍🤞….long live LB😻

We all have a right to moan about our own issues, lol. Chronic pain is chronic pain, regardless of what caused it.

So moan away sista ✊ nobody has to listen to us moan if they don't want to 🤣

your writing skills are so captivating, felt like I was reading a book.

so many difficult moments you have been through, really had to be a warrior.

have you ever looked into any alternative/integral medicine or holistic treatments as well? neural therapy with procaine shots are amazing to regenerate the nervous tissue, many times our scars contribute for pain in other parts of our body. seems like a small detail, but could bring you more life quality in the long run. I would look into accupunture as well, or even deep tissue massage.

lots of love, tgt x

Haha, thanks.

I could've kept writing for another hour about all of the treatments I've tried.
Massage is very good for relieving tight muscles and the different buzzing, tingling, aching sensations that I get down my left leg and groin. Only problem is that relief (in my case) is very short term.

I have a spot on the top of my foot, along the first 2 metatarsal bones, that feels like I'm getting text messages on vibrate all the time. Aches like a mofo constantly.
But when I get some oil on it and give it a good strong massage, it's like flipping a switch!

All the sciatica pains down my leg stop, the vibrating sensation stops texting me and the mental relief is amazing.
The trade off though, is that the foot ache goes from constant low to mid level nagging pain, to a super localised stabbing pain right at that one spot.

The mixture of instant relief and whatever endorphins and stuff that gets released, and the new, sharp pain from the massage is very hard to describe. I'll just say that the kids find the noises I make absolutely hilarious 🤣.

I'm usually back to aching within the hour, but every little helps, right? 😅

Ouch 🤕

Of course I read it I'm baked rn too! i feel ya pain buddy (literally lol) its places like this that give us a chance to post stuff like that and it be totally cool so good on ya cos mine was a lot shorter, one day at a time well sometimes one hour at a time but theres always hope in the smallest of things and weed enhances that so much, lost count of the times i cant take any more meds and im chain smoking weed and throwing in some booze for good measure and then I find the right music to make me forget for just a little bit and then the drink gets put down and the smile widens as the THC has met with my wanna be dancing music part of my brain and ganged up to kick the hell out of the pain part for a bit! Boy weed rants are good lol, peace bro and hope you're not in too much pain atm

I use cannabis to help me switch off and unwind and ultimately sleep.. always had a problem relaxing and falling asleep ever since I was a kid and younger according to my mother.

wow, really serious issue. lack of sleep in the long run can cause so many harm to our health. alongside mary jane, some mineral reposition is key to a great quality sleep. sleep is physical as it is metaphysical, I mean, it can have a lot to do with our biochemicals. it's good to look for a doctor who works with mineral/vitamins reposition. mineral and vitamin absorption is a complex thing, many times our body needs a substance to be able to absorb another substance. I know that magnesium citrate and potassium can help, but this means nothing if your system lacks another substance in order to absorb them. have you looked into that yet?

tgt x

Thanks for that insight but I don’t think it’s a serious issue.. a little herb a couple of hours before bed and make sure I don’t go to bed stoned out of my head then I can switch off easily and have a restful night.
Accompanied by my varied and balanced diet with regular exercise and I’m good to go. Cheers lads.

I use it to alleviate anxiety, depression, BPD and PTSD symptoms. It's not a miracle cure, but it most definitely helps. CBD every day, THC on the weekends. The CBD helps me with the every day anxiety, panic attacks and sleep problems. Vaping bud on the weekend helps me to feel normal, able to concentrate and like I'm not going completely insane with the flashbacks and emotional outbursts.

indeed, holy mary jane. there has been lots of studies on how this medicine lowers ptsd symptoms, more even with the association of thc - cbd. glad you found this relief.

I also heard of a new therapy treatment with induced lucid dreaming, sounds really interesting! in case you are not open to psilocybin. psychedelic therapy has been super effective for ptsd and depression. for bpd I guess the research is still recent, but studies show how psilocybin improves emotional regulation. in my case, the best for my depression was psilocybin.

but of course, I'm no doctor and every body is a different universe.

lots of love, tgt x

As a younger me I had an accident on a bike breaking my arm and damaging my back, have used it since I was a teenager (alongside cocdamol) and find it helps massively with IBS and the cramping as again doctors would rather shrug it off and say crack on.

it's easier nowadays to listen to a doctor prescribe a drug that in the long run brings more risks to our system than a doctor who stands up to the medical council and recognises the efficacy of plants or is aware of the languages of the body.

if your IBS is not related to family history or bad eating habits, as is the case of my cousin, it is very much related to our mental health or even to the use of antibiotics in the long run without the essential supplementation of good bacteria (probiotics and/or prebiotics).

interesting to notice how through mary jane we can observe the intestine-brain brain-intestine communication. it relaxes, nurtures your thoughts, consequently relaxes a bit more your IBS.

have you tried the good bacteria to strenghen you? the use of probiotics can promote modulation of the intestinal microbiota by competition and consequent inhibition of pathogen adhesion to the intestinal epithelium, which means that they improve the intestinal mucosal barrier function by downregulating of mucosal immune activation, increasing mucus layer and tight junction protein production. so, in general, it promotes anti-inflammatory effects through the suppression of pro-inflamamatory cytokines, improving intestinal immunity and stimulating the production of secretary IgA (immunoglobin A, very important for the defense of the mucous membrane) and intestine-brain communication.

I'm an enthusiastic about psychosomatics, integral health and chinese medicine. through an holistic view, our intestines teach us that more important than possessing is knowing how to enjoy, that offering is as vital as conquering and that the only true appropriation is the possession of oneself. in the movement of filling and emptying, they enable each individual to know themselves, to build themselves, to exercise themselves, to improve themselves and to offer themselves, guaranteeing the healthy peristalsis of behaviour and emotions.

I went deep on this one, lol.

peace and love,
tgt x

Takes away my aches and pains,I’ve got a physical job and I’m getting on a bit(over 50)and I do a bit of running,so a bit of smoke relaxes my muscles,and help me recover,plus also relieves a bit of depression you know what it’s like now days with all the shit going on.😁
I think it nourishes your endocanabanoid system also.
Happy smoking 👍

glad to hear mary jane brings relief to your pains. also, magnesium citrate replacement helped me a lot with the contractures and muscular pains that I had. and, without a doubt, psilocybin exorcised the depression demon out of me (and many other people that are also healing from it with psychedelics therapy).

lots of love, tgt x

helps me deal with my social anxiety, ASD and insomnia. doubt id be here if it wasnt for mary jane

some plants can really save our soul. I feel a deep gratitude to be able to work with a plant that helps you have more peace and health. your comment touched me.

tgt x

I get relief from anxiety, and also muscle cramps due to being on my feet all day working. And it helps when I'm feeling a bit down. I think things would definitely be worse without it.

weed defitenely helps in this situation. if I were you I would pay attention to the cramps, they can mean lots of things. even dehydration because if you spend long times up in your feet, you need to guarantee good blood flow. low mineral depletion could also be a factor that enhances this kind of pain. since I started to replenish magnesium citrate in my body (1 pill during the morning and 2 at night) i've slept much better and felt much less muscular cramps. things we eat interfere a lot in our blood supply as well. just avoid dehydration as much as you can. i'm no doctor but, wish you all the best.

tgt x

Ur totally right dehydration happens a lot due to not stopping and having liquids enough at work, sometimes find myself at 5pm having only had one drink for the day but that's my fault, but something I'm gonna improve see if it helps. Cheers guys.

It helps just about everything for me, pain relief for both diabetic neuropathic and back injury pain. It reduces apnea:(it started when I had a five year break) and insomnia. And the main one for me is anxiety, although I must say the munchies do not help the diabetis!

I am not sure I'd be alive without cannabis today. A lot of people like to paint daily use as an addiction, but for me its medicine. When I stop using cannabis, withdrawal is not new symptoms due to addiction, but a return to the stress, grief, and nightmares the holy herb alleviates for me.

Cannabis as a tool to alleviate grief has been fantastic for me. One of my best friends riding along the hardest journey of my life!
