Obviously lighthearted but also a dilemma.

We acquired a beautiful set of free bunk beds for our dc from a local selling site. Completely free. We don’t have much to offer in return and the guy looked like a lovely older middle class hippy type. We have a lot of decent weed on us.

I think it would be just what a bloke like him in lockdown would really want but dh isnot so sure.

Those that used to enjoy a smoke but have nothing on them in lock down. Wouldn’t this be a lovely thank you?

You could put a flannel over it, reduce the covid risk.

MoonBaby1 · 07/06/2020 23:26

sharpie I’ve been watching Peep Show recently. Have you?!

I'd kill for some decent weed right about now. Or some zopiclone. YANBU.

indemMUND · 07/06/2020 23:27

Weed in return for the free of charge beds for your kids. Delightful prospect Hmm

disobedianthamster I’ve heard a lot of this and I think in the right hands it would be more appreciated than my home made chutney (which is also pokey and amazing Grin!)

Yeah offer them to him, with a bit of luck he will be in a position to offer you a night in a cell in return for dealing.

The heat from burning would kill any covid lurking in the saliva

rabbitheadlights · 07/06/2020 23:32

Oh FFS get a grip I don't touch the stuff but I love a brandy ... No different in my opinion

Costacoffeeplease · 07/06/2020 23:33

So you can’t afford beds for your children but have loads of weed. Great call Confused

rabbitheadlights · 07/06/2020 23:34

Where did OP say they can't afford beds???

MoonBaby1 · 07/06/2020 23:35

Just because we chose pre loved does not mean we can’t afford or won’t buy beds for our dc !

How's your mood swings on irregular marijuana use?

Clearly affected as you think it's an acceptable exchange. Perhaps you've had too much and have become psychotic

ConstantlySeekingHappiness · 07/06/2020 23:38

We don’t have much to offer in return

Well you said this OP. Plenty of money for weed but nothing left to pay for second hand beds for your children.

Skelebat · 07/06/2020 23:40

Maybe a little baggy?

You could ask him first

onlyk · 07/06/2020 23:40

I really wouldn’t do it. If you’ve misread the room not only could you insult the person your next visitor could be social services or the police.

MoonBaby1 · 07/06/2020 23:40

The beds were going for free! No one has spare cash floating about.

We took them gladly but it was very generous so wanted to give something ‘unbuyable’ in return as a good will gesture.

OP posts:
Skelebat · 07/06/2020 23:41

I just got DD a bad and DS.

I can afford new but I don't buy anything new if I can avoid it for environmental reasons.

DamnYouAutoCabbage · 07/06/2020 23:41

I'm howling at these posts. Oh @MoonBaby1 did you think when you posted this that you'd be a drug dealing, covid spreading, psychotic prostitute who can't afford beds for her kids? I'm dying 😂😂😂😂

MoonBaby1 · 07/06/2020 23:41

skelebat definitely we’d ask first.

ClassicCola · 07/06/2020 23:42

@SharpieInThe

Why not offer to wank him off instead?
😂😂
MoonBaby1 · 07/06/2020 23:42

I’m jealous of my mn alter ego! I’m far more boring than that Grin

Talk about "judge a book"... That's such a disgusting stereotype to assume "hippy type... Must love drugs". I personally have been described as "hippy-ish", but would be mortified if that meant people looked at me and thought "she must love smoking weed". I might dress alternatively (in clothes I find comfortable), and live an ethical and vegan lifestyle, but that doesn't mean I want your drugs thank you. Never touched drugs or smoked a cigarette in my life. The horrendous amounts of human and animal rights that get exploited throughout the illegal drug industry, is enough to put me off, before you even talk about the health (mental and physical) implications. If you offered me drugs "because I looked like a hippy" I'd happily report you, and hope you got fined for dealing. Why not offer to bake him a cake in return? (Obviously drug free) and make sure it's vegan... you know, seeing as he's a "hippy", he must be vegan as well as a drug user.

Mrskeats · 07/06/2020 23:45

Maybe you don't have much because you are spending your money on drugs?
