Yeah Quite a good read. he lead an interesting if dishonest life!!
He now does lectures at Universities around Europe I believe and has own website!!

I must admit I did like the bit where he launches the DEA tracking beacon into the sea inside some polystyrene!!

Naughty but funny just the same!!

I,ve also staggered into him on a few late nights in London. He djs, does travel writing for the papers (amsterdam, jamaica etc.) and generally promotes the weed. My missus saw him being searched by the police once as well so he is still treading the thin line! Worth reading

Actually they are more of a stoned ramble than a lecture , but very interesting and funny all the same.
He spent the whole 2 hrs smoking spliffs the audience gave him, he seemed very impressed with the quality of weed grown in the westcountry
