bakung wrotemissed me then as i used to beg smokes outside the cross keys and i was only 12 :icon_eek:
Ahhgg...the memories are flooding back. I never smoked but was in a street-gang that used to cadge fags outside pubs as, after a few beers, people get generous.
I'm told that dog-ends were preferred as, according to the gang I belonged, the concentration of nicotine was in the end, before filtered fags became the norm.
Those guys would open up the ends and roll new cigarettes and sell or smoke themselves.:icon_e_surprised:
I wonder how many of that street-gang is still alive...probably dead from lung cancer many years ago.
