It's a miracle... all three cats in one place! The newbie is gradually being accepted into the fold... tbh it's rare enough to for the unsociable black lump to share a space with anybody except my youngest DD so this a rare occasion...

Earlier convo

DS: What's wrong with Leroy?
Me: Nothing, he's got Molly.
DS: He's what?
Me: Molly. Molly Mouse. Molly. Catnip.
DS: Mum, Molly is MDMA.

DS: Figures...
Me: ... ... ... how d'you know about MDMA?

😂

TalkedTooMuchStayedTooLong · 05/01/2022 21:54

😹

Supersimkin2 · 05/01/2022 21:58

Yes it is!! Molly is yoot slang for what you and I wise tribal elders would call Ecstasy. It used to be slang for a gay hooker round here runtil quite recently.

G&T is slang for GHB (date rape drug) and Tina = crystal meth. If DS knows that, remove his 'electric telephone' apply a mild 40 lashes and 100 hours a day of extra cricket till he recovers his moral fibre.

I would put none of the entertainments above past Leroy.

coastergirl · 05/01/2022 21:58

That made me laugh so much. Really need to invest in these mice. Walty loves catnip.

coastergirl · 05/01/2022 22:00

Super, how on earth do you know all these things? I fear I have lived a very sheltered existence.

YesItsMeIDontCare · 05/01/2022 22:05

Turns out he was taught some slang as part of drug awareness and dangers when he was at school.

He plays cricket with his mates so that wouldn't be much of a punishment...

The less we say about my own drug knowledge at his age the better. 🙈

Fluffycloudland77 · 05/01/2022 22:23

I once told dh Bertie had been freebasing in the living room. I knew I’d got it wrong when his face dropped “he did WHAT?”

Free running. I meant free running. It’s an easy mistake.

coastergirl · 05/01/2022 22:25

What's freebasing?

MaybeHeIsMyCat · 05/01/2022 22:30

My old colleague wrote a list for an Asda run
"Crystal meth"

Other colleague "WTF? Don't write that down! Shred it!"

Colleague "that stuff you inhale!"

She meant menthol crystals Grin

Supersimkin2 · 05/01/2022 22:34

It's smoking coke and heroin at once, predecessor to smoking crack in dope history. 1980s.

'taught some slang as part of drug awareness and dangers at school'. Of course.

@coastergirl cos I volunteer for a charity for people who have lived full lives. They delight in telling me the dirt nearly as much as I love hearing it.

Basejumping and free running @Fluffycloudland77 - a lethal combination. Just Say No.

Grumpyoldpersonwithcats · 05/01/2022 22:43

Molly is MDMA

You learn something new everyday on the litter tray.🙀

YesItsMeIDontCare · 05/01/2022 22:53

'taught some slang as part of drug awareness and dangers at school'. Of course.

Funnily enough my thoughts were very similar! Fortunately I think I managed to terrify DS out of drugs at a young age.

DS: Mum, when did you get epilepsy?
Me: Late teens. Why?
DS: How d'you get it?
Me: Recreational drugs 🤷🏼‍♀️
DS: 🙈🙉🙊😱

TheLongRider · 05/01/2022 23:03

I ordered some Mollie's Mice before Christmas. I received an email from Irish customs (not a scam) asking for payment of import duties on the 22nd and I'm still waiting to receive them.

If Irish customs have a drug sniffer cat, they're never going to make to my house. I'll be charged with importing illegal substances.Grin

Paws says sorryyyyyyy but he will post them now. They're a bit soggy
Allergictoironing · 06/01/2022 08:25

Import duties - on items worth about £8 each. Just a teeny tiny bit petty by customs!

Grumpyoldpersonwithcats · 06/01/2022 08:36

@Allergictoironing

No, just the reality of Brexit... Angry

TheLongRider · 06/01/2022 08:36

That's the unfortunate reality of UK/EU customs duty. It almost doubled the cost including currency exchange differences.

Supersimkin2 · 06/01/2022 09:11

That’s the best drugs talk I’ve ever heard Yes. I’m a hopeless lightweight when it comes to things like that - one port ‘n’ lemon and I’m anyone’s.

Gah, Long, Brexit. Mice are bought as a gift! No import duty payable at that value. Do they seriously think Nemo paid on his own card?

Supersimkin2 · 06/01/2022 09:17

Long, pm me your address. I can post tiny Nemo and the family some mice heavily labelled as a Xmas present next week.

YesItsMeIDontCare · 06/01/2022 11:41

DS has often said that the reason he doesn't rebel is because he's got nothing to rebel against 😁

If it makes you feel any better Super I am also a complete lightweight these days 🤦🏼‍♀️

Supersimkin2 · 06/01/2022 12:43

So delightfully inexpensive, Yes 👏

Allergictoironing · 06/01/2022 16:05

Same here for me. Old enough now that my prescriptions are free, and just one drink gets me high as a kite when partnered with my painkillers Grin.

Yeah, that would be me, too. So square I have corners.
