They were amazing, but they were the first md I ever took - the come up was so intense I kinda passed out leaning against a balcony in a club and when I came around a few mind later I could see giant catapillers on the dance floor!

1st and only pill I've ever had. A Mitsubishi circa 1997.

Wasn't aware I'd actually taken it until it kicked in as someone put it in my drink "for a laugh" but thats a whole other story. I remember the price being roughly 6 quid (IIRC) and the effects being quite profound (especially when you aren't expecting it :))

Seeing people in the chill out room in clubs at closing time slumped with their eyes rolled back in their heads and foaming at the mouth was very common back then.

Not a great state to be in admittedly.

The first pill I had that was good was a white cherry stamp. The second was a blue trident
which we took at Glastonbury 2005, so I guess this doesn't belong in this thread!

Old school thread. Had to check whether I'd posted in it or not.

Don't actually remember doing many other pills after these, was around the time that bzp was all over the place. Thankfully we had decent mdma instead :D
 
Mdma capsules were the first i tried in 1989. Not too long after that came the legendary doves. Followed by white cali's ..pills then went a bit shitty for a while and suddenly the Mitsubishi's appeared. Red HQ's and others that escape me. Any aussies from back then may remember the legendary x press pills named because the score was double stamped like a x. They came in various stamps and colours. Amazing gear. Pretty sure it was a factory in Malaysia that produced those. Magic beans.
 
Ecstasy in the late 80s. Microdot acid in the early 80's . Best taken with a pharmaceutical Dexedrine. In fact, all speed available was lifted from drug Mgs. I wasn't a fan of downers, but there were a ton of barbiturates around-Seconal, tuinol etc. Even the almost impossible to get Quaaludes. I didn't understand the attraction-being 'lauded out was no fun.

Consumer, wasn't that Mandrax in your part of the world?

Spiking people up is fucking bang out of order , we came out of a rave in about 1990 and went into McDonald's and some fella that was with us , not a close friend but a tag along.
Started laughing at me when I took a sip of my milkshake.
I start getting all para and he tells me he put some acid in the straw when I was I the toilets , I went went fucking mad and cracked the cunts jaw.
Turned out he was joking , but I don't think that shits very funny , I was still mangled from about 4 doves and acid weren't on the fucking menu.
Cunt never came near us again.

1st pill inn 88 cost 20 quid - white cali 200mg use to take 1/2 at a time as the rush was toooo much, then plenty of doves, xxx, apples, dennis the mennis, r&custard,burgers ets etc stopped in 96/97. dropped x2 snowballs which ws a major mistake somewhere along the way, sat in the car listing to talk radio for 6 hours then couldnt drive home as too fucked ahhhh

With you on the snowballs they were something else!! I remember yellow rolex's doing the rounds 95/96 ish they were bangers, last pills I did before my brain said no more were green loves around 99/00 ish my mate (who was relatively experienced) double dropped and had to call his mum to reassure him as the rush was tooooo much, pills usually cost between 10-15 quid but you knew you'd took some and they spangled you for a good 6 hours.

Yup it is indeed bang out of order. Once I'd come around the cunt who did it had a sharp meeting of his jaw to my fist....

Never spoke to the prick again. Coming up on a pill like that when you've never done them (or any drugs for that matter) before isnt cool at all....
 
Someone spiked my mum once. Some guy who worked with her decided it would be fun on a christmas do to put, what we think was, Rohypnol into her drink. Seriously not pleasant by the fact we had no clue what was happening. A & E were pretty much on point and worked it out. We couldn't prove it was the guy although he had been the last one to get a round and he was known to partake, the only time she didn't have her glass or see the drink was when he bought the round. He lasted all of 5 months at work before he left of his own accord, pretty much all his work mates shunned him.

I digress - There is still one pill that stands out as totally different to any of the 89 - 99 pills I took, still to this day I wonder what the hell it actually was. All we knew were apparently a home pressed short run, no marking, off white pill circa 94. We only got 15 off the guy selling them (a true hippy in every sense). He would simply would not part with anymore because they were too precious. Mescaline with MDA, MDEA was suggested, likely they didn't contain mescaline.

We were told before dropping don't expect them to be any good for raving, take them in a social setting occasion. We dropped and went to see interview with a vampire, seemed like a good idea at the time. The next 2 hours were indescribable. Came up a good un 40 minutes into the film. Sat trying to watch a film with such euphoria and empathy (no real energy). At one point in the film there is a scene where they are sat around a camp fire. I was sat by the camp fire! Even today I remember the feeling of heat from the fire and the feeling of being IN the film. We didn't make the end of the film, it made no sense we all lost the plot and needed to decamp. Then followed 4 hours of just bliss and love as we stumbled our way home.

We shared them with friends. We simply had to. Anyone friend that took one 'thats the best pill i ever did you got anymore'. They became a pill of legend. We still talk about it.

Trippy as hell but without any anxiety or feeling of being out of control. Full on empathy, not a shallow in the moment but really deep. Hallucinations were the strangest. You could look at the stars in the sky and imagine yourself travelling to the star and actually feeling like you were, along with the physical rush of flying. The afterglow was something else to. No comedown, no sketch just 3 days of total PLUR. We tried very hard to keep 1 each. We were so adamant that this was the pill we would do when we reached 50. Alas that lasted all of a month, we were drugs pigs after all, but we have the memories.

Totally useless pill for raving but by god were they lush. Should really try MDEA and see if that was one of the magic ingredients. MDA it was not or at least not on its own, we had done the snowballs and we knew that this pill was very different to anything we had ever tried before.
 
No Tinker...mandrax is a South African thing.

I forgot the best pills i have ever had. Yellow Hugs and Kisses (XO stamp). Had them first in 96 in Adelaide..amazing pills..45 min come up then bang..pure euphoria. Had quite a few. Then around 2001 a friend appeared with an identical bunch in Byron Bay..same colour and press...and identical effects. I am positive they came from the same producer. Only ever saw that press twice...5 years apart and identical in every way. Everyone that had them said they were the best they ever had. I bought a hundred with the intentions of shifting them...ended up eating the lot. Good times.

Mandrax was also the name of methaqualone in the UK back in the day.

I thought so. I only tried therm a couple times-downers were not my thing. Felt like moving though syrup, mentally disconnected. People loved them, but I never really saw the point.
 
I havnt boithered reading all the thread as Im bound to repeat some of the old favourites. I was to young to catch the golden era, as I didn't start using pills untill I started goiung out in 1995 - always doves but of course it was the appearance of the original Mitsubishis in 1997 that turned me into a pill monster as they were probably the first pills that showed me how amazing and unique ecstasy was, as despite my poor lifestyle choices, ecstasy remains my favourite drug - i just never use it any more as I dont get to go out. The only thing that seperated them from the original classics was that by all accounts they didn't last as long - I constantly here of ravers getting through an entire night from one tablet where as by the time I got into them you needed 3 really for an all nighter - no complaints though as they were fucking excellent and at a fiver a pop they were just as good value as the tablets going round in the early 90's which cost a tenner minimum.

My particular favourites were of course the old 'brown speckled mitsubishi turbos' which Im sure have already been discussed in here somewhere. Equally as stunning around the millenium were the 'Versace's' - a press that I never found inferior copies of and as such were revered .

The weirdest pills I had at the time were these massive yokes that were about 1.5cm in diameter, tastefully sold as 'Jill Dandos' - they were really strong but proper messy and dirty and lasted ages, I strongly suspect that they were MDA but with another active drug in it, as Ive had MDA pills a few times but as mongy and trippy as they were, these fuckers had something extra. I only came across them once as I was selling them at the time and that was what was available that week as I always got everything from the same girl as she didn't sell shit. The one time I took any was at a house party which was for the best - it was a fantastic night but the weirdness of them makes me glad I didn't bring them out dancing.
 
We also had some crackers in 2000 called Fat Boy Slims FBS stamp. Big pills full on euphoria. A mate brought a giant bag of them to my wedding. Suffice to say the reception was loose. LSD and cocaine was also in abundance that night. Payed big money for a lush hotel room which we finally stumbled into at around 7 am. Had to check out at 9. Could have planned that bit better. Ended up knocking on a friends door still off our face all dressed up still though looking very worse for wear begging for sanctuary.

btw pills do seem different but the thing is when we strted in 88 in ws the begining of a youth'cult' and when you wen t out everyone was 'on one' so empthy went with the terrotory now adays i suspect that lots of folk are on different drugs- backk then it was pure high mg mdma and acid maybe a bit of speed. I know that when i stopped taking pills i didnt get the empathy or the rushes and fell asleep at the end of the night where as in 88-94 ....95-97 never needed more than 4 over 24h and loved everyone and would dance witing for the tube with the music in my head.

BTW i can still remember what the snowballs looked like, big burger shape with a sheen on them and not brilliantly pressed ive written bout my experience elsewhere - did a 1/2 one week and ended up at a mates houes with phones on dancing on my own then did 2 in 15mins by accident )time distortion and had a very peculiar time)

The rave scene basically stooped the fighting at football , I remember after a bit of a stand off in the Astoria one night , hugging and cuddling half of tottenhams yid army.
And buying our Cali's off them. Was a mad time , the empathy and making new friends with people we stood toe to toe with the season before.
 
Was looking on pill reports earlier, good to see lot's of Rolls Royce's going around presently.

An "RR" - Rolls Royce - was the first pill I ever took, 15years ago, was immensely strong, knocked me out of this world!
