Heard he’s going back on his words now. Probably due to the fact he could be out soon as you say. A snakey little rat him.

Anyone with a bit of brains would move to the continent and get out of crime but what chance have any of these former gang members who are totally institutionalized and have no concept of a life where one gets up to go to work five days a week. He’ll return to the ****test part of Limerick, spend the rest of his days strung out and shunned or end up shot dead or back in prison.

it puzzles me why they dont all give up the criminal life. what good is loads of money if you have to walk around with a bullet proof vest and be looking over your shoulder the whole time. getting shot at, your house petrol bombed etc you would be better off living on the streets.

Some of the stuff going around now is proper dirt.

I’m not mad into the stuff, do it maybe 2/3 times a year max.

A friend of a friend was telling me he was out Saturday night for a lads Xmas get together, knew it would be their last night out for awhile so they were going to give it a wallop.

Anyway, He said he got 2g’s of pure pox. A good way to test it is to put a small bit into a glass of water, pure coke will float and the mix will sink. Now, you’re never going to get pure in Dublin regardless of what any dealer tells you but you should expect about 50% of the substance to remain at the top of the water and float.

The sh*te he got apparently sunk quickly, it was made up of crystals and was total dirt. Flushed the lot and told your man he sold who sold it to him to send me back the cash (he did.)

2nd time lucky he text a Brazilian chap, stuff he had was class tbf so it’s hit and miss.

Yeah even the "flake" is 60/70% tops.You can fake that test aswell just get a non soluble mix.Unless your sourcing off dnet or something not worth the cash/hassle

Oh, I'm not so sure. There must be retired criminals living comfortably with all the trappings that accrue from being successful in their profession. A rare enough breed though. Christy Kinahan did well - for a while - but is now in permanent exile and, no doubt, feeling under pressure.

would most dealers in a town not have rivals though? I think they are, some will get on with others but there is always a rivalry there with others.

Not really there's usually one or 2 fellas who come around causing **** but there usually put the picture fairly quickly.Anyone smart doesn't bother with this feud/patch ****e only draws heat if a fella owes he gets a beating but even then most fellas leave that to last resort.More likely to be set up by shades from rivalry than the **** you see about.

what if you have a dealer in a small town, business is good, he has the whole place to himself. then a younger guy starts dealing and taking business from him?

The joys of business.
A chat with the younger fella may be warranted in that case.
It's much better than the GNOCB or CAB
Taking the hole lot from you

it isn't a fantasy scenario. I have seen it myself. if a dealer doesn't work with or know another dealer in the same town, they are enemies and are in my opinion out to get each other.

Anyone interested in partnering/investing in a betting agency called Baddie Power where we only give odds on what big name will get jailed or popped next?

Someone let Rattigan out quick. That will be a pantomine and a half.

I wonder will the papers change his nickname like when Freddie lost all the weight from stress/gear???

Captain Reckless, the artist formerly knows as King Ratt.

He might be surprised when he finds nobody eats at Abrakababra after nights out anymore.

Its just natural fellas do that but never last long there loud.Noone is really bothered by patches most of these guys have a very select customer this whole feud/gangs bull**** is a fallacy that the journalists made up.Most of these guys get it off the other guy if there stuck or sort the other guy out.Most criminals try avoid getting caught these guys on thd newspaper only live for notoriety.If youv never been around you wont understand it anyone with a brain favours discretion.

He can be as determined as he likes. How does he think he's going to actually get him on the stand though? This is just the Sunday World desperately looking for a story because everything is quiet with Covid.

I believe that the EU set the base price. It’s then up to the importers,distributors and dealers to take it from there. The EU could definitely take less of a share, in order to make the price more attractive to every cokehead across the country.

they are maintaining high prices by restricting supply. those of us old enough to remember butter mountains, beef mountains and wine lakes wont be surprised to hear that there is an EU cocaine mountain.
