I tried it back in the 1960's Goldie but it didn't do anything for me so I tried Peyote cactus. That was much more fun! :;smile:
The Malaysians use some plant thing as well and I think the Indians sprinkle an exliar in their food.

I first heard about Peyote in Aldous Huxley's book "The Doors of Perception". My flatmate and I were very scientific about our experiments. Only one of us at a time would imbibe the other looked after him in case, and we taped the comments. I still have my transcript..

:;smile: Well why not Davo - it was a long time ago! It took about 3/4 of an hour all recorded on one of those things with miles of tape going from one wheel to another- remember them? :;smile:
The parrot closes his one good eye
He is the blue of sapphire
From deep inside the stone
Where the light starts.
(Pause)
It almost hurts to look at him
His colour is his thing
He is nothing else
(Pause)
There is nothing but the window
And the parrot and his blue
No room-No people
But beautiful faces
I love you
(Pause)
I can see so far- so far
Seeing is happiness on a cloud
My cloud is soft and blue
With spectrum edges
(Long pause)
People-people
Way down below my blue cloud
All looking up
All slack jawed
(Pause)
I can see so clearly
I can recognise them almost every one
They see me
But they don’t know me
I am their sun
So bright
I hang in their sky
Smiling to them
Closer, closer
(Pause)
They are dead I know
And I cry for them
I can feel tears on my face
The world cries -
So many tears
(Pause)
Sparkle…..sparkle
I know your face
I love you
You are happy like a lover
Oh you’re beautiful to see with
(Pause)
The evil fades
By smiling at it
It is green and is nothing
I smile- I love you, evil
Even you
It melts to oil bubble colours
Stretch and squeeze
Stretch and squeeze
(Pause)
I wish I was a soap bubble
And I am
My feet and my hands
I can’t see
But I feel the inside
Of the bubble
It is soft but strong
Oh God oh Ottawa
It’s a long way down
I’m not here am I
Worry? No!
(Long pause)
I know where I am
But my senses don’t
I smile and say I love you
I’m not afraid
Not now because I know.

a christian doctor once quoted that taking drugs was an attempt to get back to God - sounds like it up there!

I pop in to the 5 forums I belong to every day and at intervals, like when I'm having a coffee. I don't do word games or puzzles but that's just me, I like to interact with people so unless I have something to post, I flick through in case there's a topic of interest, but I'm usually short of time. Things are a bit different at the moment as I have got gout in my left knee. Very nasty so I can sit at my computer and harass you all!
Could it be too much port and pheasant???

I don't think they are very edible. A nice bit of music though.

Pondering this thread title "CULLING Members".......
Culling cats, I can support with a passion. Culling members ? Unfortunately, illegal - even in Overfifties.

Why ? Just curious. Incidentally, I notice Jakeyboy was 'born' on 25th October - my birthday - was he a present ?
