Making a hash of our reputation
Vic Barlow7/ 5/2008
TAKE a look at the amount of cannabis growing in that house on Bridge Street. It was only discovered after firemen attended a blaze. Had that lot gone up in smoke, the whole of Cheshire would have been stoned for a month.
What were they planning to do with all that weed, distribute it via the NHS? Apparently, it’s the largest haul of pot ever grown in the UK. It looks like a Columbian drug cartel has set up shop in Macc.
I wouldn’t be surprised if it was intended for the sole use of councillors. No wonder we have so many weird and wacky roadworks. They probably don’t know where they’re digging.
Take a good sniff next time you’re passing County Hall. You may get a surprise. Our county councillors may just be naturally comatose, but I doubt it. We used to be famous worldwide for silk, then it was treacle, now it’s hash.
It’s going to be very interesting when we travel abroad. You won’t be able to mention Macc without some spaced-out earth mother in espadrilles inviting you to crash. Respect.
