bleeding cocaine users!
 
the owner of a bar in swindon became so fed up with cocaine users using his premisis to snort cocaine that he used a deterrant....WD40.

carl brown of the 'mail coach inn' decided he had enough of cocaine users and began spraying WD40 on toilet seats.

"We have seen people with bleeding noses and certain people who we suspected may have been on drugs don't come here any more," he said.

Well if pubs and clubs take up this practice they had better make sure there are no split, splinters, cracks etc in the seats ;)

Can't be doing their custom much good though - I mean, if you went into a club and all the patrons were sitting there with bloody noses.... :sick: :rofl:

on a serious note , what a totally riduculously ****ing stupid thing to do :mad: , if his door staff are not upto the job ( drug searching that is ) then why put the normal public ( non coke taking ppl that is ) in a potentially dangerous situation , i wonder what his public liability insurance is like :erm: , someone having a legitimate claim from this idiocy could well sink the idiot without trace :tu:

it doesn't ring true with me, not regarding the 'causes nose bleeds' bit, any way - coke will do that by itself, you don't need WD40, to help.....

- but, trying to get a line together, on a surface covered in a water repelling lubricant is not practical, as anything you do get up your nose will likely not get into your bloodstream, efficiently, anyway ;)

cocaine is a drug to be very careful of - the landlord was doing them a favour, in the long term :angel:

I would like to say, that no amount of door staff will stop drugs getting into a venue, nothing short of a full internal examination will stop the problem. I think people dont realise how prolific drug taking is... i bet there are more poeple in your local on a friday night with coke up there nose than you realise.. Its a shame. but to blame the venue owner is bad, at least he is activly taking a stance against it. and admiting he has a problem.. most owners sweep it under the carpet.

Yeah, but a full internal examination isn't especially nice or workable.

Well a quick Google has come up with this:

http://www.dek.com/data/3-in-1.pdf

HAZARDS IDENTIFICATION
EYE CONTACT †“ Can cause stinging and irritation
SKIN CONTACT - Prolonged contact with the oil may give rise to irritation and dermatitis
INHALATION - Aspiration into the lungs is the main hazard, which may cause chemically induced Pneumonia
INDIGESTION - May cause irritation of the mouth, oesophagus, stomach, abdominal pain and diarrhoea.
Nausea and vomiting are the most likely outcome and the greatest danger would result from aspiration into the lungs.

Should be enough to deter most coke users! :D

He would only need to spray the lid, no cocaine user is going to do a line on the actual seat itself....

Cocaine users will put the seat down so to give them a flat surface to prepeare and snort a line. Putting WD40 on this will not affect anybody else who uses the toilets in the venue...:)

Paul K 17-01-2005 22:26

Re: bleeding cocaine users!
 
At least it will be quicker and easier to clean the seat off before you have to go ;)

neither do I, much, well anymore lol :dozey:


to 'do' drugs, you have to put something into your body - here is an attempt at some advice..

forget needles - if you are using needles you have a problem I cannot solve - seek professional advice :angel:

If you are taking heroin, obtained illegally, I refer you to my previous paragraph. - doesn't matter if you snort, burn or inject, it, heroin is poison, in any form, opium, morphine, barbiturate, codeine, whatever, try and give it up.

Cocaine/crack - great for 15 minutes - then you try sniffing up the whole carpet because you may have spilled a litle bit - be very afraid ;)

Amphetamine - pills or powder this is another scary drug - avoid ;) - we used to say 'speed kills' ...... that includes 'E'.

LSD - and other similar 'psychedelic' drugs - e.g. mescaline - avoid if you can ;)

marihuana - make up your own mind, but bear in 'mind' that it varies in strength, be careful of herbal cannabis (grass) called 'skunk' for example, this can be especially potent, as can select varieties of cannabis resin, such as 'nepalese temple balls' and 'zero zero'. It can cause psychological problems - anxiety attacks, for example :erm:

alcohol - one of the worst drugs you can take - addictive and causes liver and nerve damage - avoid ;)

nicotine - an alkaloid poison that acts as a stimulant when taken slowly - e.g. by smoking a cigarette - avoid at all costs ;)

- etc, etc, etc ...

alcohol is a really bad drug, nffc, I can guarantee that too much drink is bad.

- however a glass or two of red wine, which is my 'tipple' may be good for you

Hmm I think its shocking how many off us think we don'tm have a drink problem.

I dont drink very often but on a Friday i am down my local pub drinking serious amounts of alcohol, and that they reckon is oging to be the killer..

Its something i need to address and no doubt many more people do to..

anyway sorry for my off topic gable there

nffc 18-01-2005 00:52

Exactly the same here, I actually think its quite a strange and pointless past time, but have done it for many years to socialise...

Err no, because I'm not dependent on it, i don't go all menstrual when I've not had a drink, I don't drink it until I'm off my face, I don't drink by myself... could go on...

Coffee. Now there's a different matter- sometimes hit double figures for cups of that in a day. Normally about 7-8 cups per day. Should be a teacher lol.

Nothing wrong with drinking on your own I enjoy the odd glass of wine in the bath, or with a film when I'm home alone.

Not per se, defo not with a film or summat- but if it becomes habitual or the norm then maybe...

It wouldn't matter if it was on the seat rim anyway, everyone knows that you always wipe the seat with clean toilet paper in public loos before you use them anyway :D

Sprayed on the lid also stops the drunks from peering over the top when your trying to have some privacy, they'd slip off :D
