    Nothing like original.
    Addiction to drugs, alcoholic spoiling some youth from time memorial. Once addicted very difficult to come out of the taste & the bad habit. How many youngsters have spoiled their life and how many are engaged in such killer habit. I had seen so many those days being addicted to drugs or alcohol and perished.

    Flavian,
    Ganja is not addictive unlike nicotine and alcohol.
    Even nicotine and alcohol are not addictive if you have a strong will power.
    On Saturday evenings, it is nice to sit on the open terrace of London Street and have a beer and their cheesy crabs. do not know whether I am addicted to beer or cheesy crabs, coz i order both everytime!
