So I decided to score from a totally new source today. Basically, I had a major craving for some lovely white (and as we all know most white is fantastic at the minute to make up for the atrocious brown).
So because I used to live in Manchester and when I moved to Crawley I had pretty much totally stopped using white, I never really located a source for white. It took me 18 months to find a source in Crawley and they are useless, make you wait hours, don't bring the right amount of stuff when they do arrive and take 30mins to come back with the correct stuff and on top of all that, both the white and brown is pretty rubbish.
Strangely in Brighton most dealers sell either brown or white (not both). There are some that sell both but they seem to get nicked 10x faster than those who only sell one. I only know a few sources in Brighton for white and they are "part-time" dealers, sometimes (when they need extra cash) they sell and the rest of the time they don't. On top of the fact I now live near Portsmouth which makes it a 80minute journey to Brighton it wasn't worth it to go and score a few bits of white.
Anyway, thanks to a friend I got introduced to a crew who run their shop about 5/10miles from my house. So I went and scored some stuff from them. I bought 2 brown and 3 white. (both £10s not £20s) Came home and tested it.
The white was 9/10... I couldn't have really have asked for better. The only problem with it was when I tried to do a speedball, it blocked the pin and I had to use a cup full of boiling water to unclog it and then find a vein within 30seconds. Not a major issue.
The gear was about 4/10 (so not actually that bad).
Anyway, I decided to go back and get another 2 brown and 3 white. They told me because I bought 10 in one day, they will give me 2 free the next time I score off them, so I'll be going back tomorrow to get myself 5white and 3 brown for the lovely price of £60!
Overall, I'm really happy with the way things went, it's a shame the gear wasn't a little bit better. Because of the drought, if they'd given me 6/10 gear to go with my 9/10 whisky... I would have been over-fucking-joyed!!!
