    What exactly is a headshop?

    Are you talking about growing illegal substances?

    head shops are great if you want to grow tomoatoes in your attic. or even a wardrobe in your room.

    my mate grew some tomatoes in his attic. they were nice.

    Why would you want to grow a wardrobe in your room? My room came with wardrobes already.

    you'd be amazed what you can grow with the help of these head shops. amazed

    Why? They're not breaking any laws.

    Although I do think that some of what they sell should be made illegal - I'd say it's only a matter of time before BZP and Salvia go the way of magic mushrooms.

    no somebody will take 25 bzp pills and fall down his/her stairs and it'll make front page on the her-dald and then they'll be made illegal.

    There's Nirvana on Capel Street

    There are also two in Temple Bar, I don't know the names though.

    Then there's a "growing specialist" round the corner from Nirvana.

    Headshops are 100% legal. They do herbal drugs. I heard there was a lot of questioning the idea of these shops. "but they could sell to kids" well if that's the case if i had 16 or 17 year old kid. I would rather them take something that will just make them feel a bit ill the day after they take it then buying it off a drug dealer and not know what's in it.

    I seemed to have missed the bit where I'm supposed to have said that they were illegal! :confused:

    sure why would anybody here promote anything illegal anyway. no close eye needed.

    head shops are for what you want them to be. if you want to grow tomoatoes in your attic, then the head shop will provide you with everything you need. likewise if you want to smoke tobacco Simultaneously with your chums, as like our many indian and pakistany nationals amongst us, they can also help out there and they can even provide you with special, legal tablets that make you feel more active and energetic, particularly whilst listening to dance music. although maybe not dj tiesto, but thats another thread.

    its the misconception that these stores promote illegal activity is whats wrong with society these days. just becuase they dont have multi national status with clubcard money back offers on your 6 bottles of wine and or BOOZE OFFERS, people jump on the down with this sort of thing attitude.

    you'll never find kids hanging out around head shops asking for people to go in and get them stuff. why? becasue they know people who sell illegal substances, in their area and these people dont ask for id. there only form of id is on rectangular shapes of paper usually with the numbers 5, 10 and or 20 in the corners. or 50 when all the lads chip in for a dodgy larger amount.

    Keep your balls in your sack they're commercial shops they wouldn't get away with selling anything illegal.

    Thanks for all the info I went to a couple of the ones mentioned on this thread and they're pretty good.

    Get with the times. They even have salvia bars these days where you can go get pissed then smoke yourself into a parallel universe with a nice big bong hit of salvia.. They advise people to sit on the couches when taking hits though because people have a tendency to fall off the bar stools when their arses melt and their spines turn into jelly.
