If you haven't done so already you should check out Joe Abercrombie's First Law trilogy. By far one of my favourite Trilogies of all time. There are a bunch of spin off books too, so you will be entertained for ages. The trilogy is essentially a more gritty and morbid version of A Song of Ice and Fire( Game of Thrones)

Yeh the first law books are really good

Yes I've read and fortunately have on the kindle , will definitely read tru them again at some stage , thanks for the reminder , have u read any Raymond fiest,the magician is first book , there are a ton of books, really enjoyed them

Love Feist, read all Rift-war books. Struggled with the Wheel of time though, just couldn’t get into it.
I like David Gemmell too, he’s got some great series.

I have read some of his stuff just not sure how much , could b just the first few, names ring a bell but the rest don't so will definitely check them out , thanks mate

Thanks , will check it out , I have a feeling I have read some his stuff, I had to get a kindle to stop buying books I've already read ,, thanks again :)

Hey bud, if you haven’t read The Witcher books by Andrzej Sapkowski, I would highly recommend, there’s about 7 or 8 of them I think. I’ve been reading through those and I think they’re great.

They are on my to read list was a big fan of the game and the t show was o e of the best adaptations I have seen in a long time

Nice one man, I enjoyed the game and show too :) currently on the last book in the series, enjoyed them all very much and will be sad when I’ve finished them, looking forward to series 2 of the show tho too :)

S02 was epic to man they did such a good job with the TV show

Absolutely man, I enjoyed it too :)

I haven't read and was actually talking about them recently with a polish mate at work after watching TV series , thanks mate will definitely add to the list

I heard The 100 is great. I only watched the series tho

Seen some of the series , stopped watching but I would imagine books could be decent , cheers mate

Lol teen drama with a bit of scifi thrown in watched like 2 or 3 epps and quit

Kingkiller cronicles by Patrick rothfus

Read , thanks tho , enjoyed it

Actually now that I think when I was reading I don't think I could get the 3rd book at the time , I mui look into that , cheers for jogging my memory

Dude has been writing the next book for like 11 years now.... dont hold your breath lol

Yeah same here- still to be released I think.

Check out left hand of God if u still reading mate I think there's trilogy abit different , I thought they were really good , will probably read again at some stage

Just found a hard cover copy of this for under 3 quid on amazon ..... so one try this on your recommendation

Did u ever read the left hand of God mate ?

The left hand of God ? Hope u enjoy mate ,I'm deffo gonna read again

Nice one will check out

It's along time coming hopefully it comes out

I love the wheel of time by robert jordan its what got me reading, i read up to book 9 when 10 was being written in 2005 maybe?

Did u finish the series mate , cheers for response :)

Have read them all
Really good books but RJ died before doing the last two books
He knew it was coming and made tons of notes about how he wanted it to end and when he passed they got a guy called brandon sanderson in to finish it off

He did a really good job of wrapping it up and is now one of my favourite authors
Check out the mistborn books or if you want a massive epic saga check out the stormlight archive starting with the way of kings

On book 12 half way through enjoying it

Naw i lost steam waiting for them to be written I entered professional school and it got deprioritized but my friends who showed me the series read all of them and said the last one that was written by his successor was awesome...i think they sais the tower series would be a good read after

They bringing out a TV series on wheel of time next year I think so wanted to finish them , the tower is that Steven king

Ok is it to soon to talk about yet? You all seen the wot TV show?

Watched it alright , find it hard to like , might have to leave abit and watch again , not really getting a vibe from cast but that's just me , have u watched it

yes i did not hate it but only caus i am biased i mean we got to see fing trollocs running around on screen!

but it was not great would say half decent at best had a few moments of hope for it towards the end

its quite new still so trying not to drop any spoilers for people who have not seen it yet

Yes I hear ya lol, don't want to spoil for others , but I think I would have enjoyed more if I hadn't read the books , mif that makes sense . Is lotr this year , looking forward to that whenever it's out

Check out Robin Hobb. Her Realm Of The Elderling books are incredible. For me, fantasy at its finest.

Cheers mate

Actually have read the soldiers son trilogy but I think that's all I've read from robin hobb, must luck into the rest for sure , cheers

Funnily enough I have one of the Soldier Sons on my shelf but I can’t bring myself to start it in case I don’t like it, ha ha. I really must have a go rather than a 4th reread of the ROTE books.

Are there books about dragons hatching not proper dagons,I have memories there but not sure if hobb books or not lol,not , trying to

Yep, they’re the ones although it doesn’t get “dragon-y” until the 2nd trilogy (Liveships). Off the top of my head there are 15ish books in all. Would highly recommend you read them all in order, if you haven’t already.

I definitely haven't read them all , will definitely check them out , and look up proper order to read for sure, cheers mate

My pleasure. Enjoy

Remember lol,

Hey Milamber I to am a massive wheel of time fan same with feist ,you should check out the way of kings by Brandon Sanderson if you have not done so already also the name of the wind

The gentlemen bastards by scott lynch is worth a read
And the black prism by Brent weeks

Nice 1 mate , did u read The left hand of God , there is trilogy I think ,if u haven't check it out , different but good, also what u think about wheel of time TV series ,nxt year mayb ?

Not looking forwards to the tv show am stressed they are going to ruin it

Hahaha ,I hear ya mate

Also milamber ,that made me smile most see pugg n think dog lol, u read all sides books too it seems ,nice

Wheel of time Is great , really good at the min, not too many left now, will check them out mate thanks ,the names don't ring a bell but that means nothing until I look them up lol, but the thing is that's why I started thread alot of these books I've read in paperback and they are gone . I focused on my favourite books but there are alot of other series I have read but alot I would like to read again and download on Kindle so I can keep and read in the future, cheers mate

Malazan book of the fallen probably my favourite book series of all time

Legend man , the bridgeburners, have read mate but it's been awhile and I don't have on Kindle so could b my next project , man I had forgotten them , thank u mate

Nah just here and local supplies for me. Dark sites feel too shady even when they're not and everything else done openly seems to involve social media accounts and messaging apps and I don't have either of those things (fuck smart phones lol).

I wish I could make this my main, constant, long term supply but I do wonder how viable it is long term. I've only been here for 6/7months and I already have to spend a fair bit more now to get less than when I first got here.... then I notice how many long standing members have disappeared from when I first arrived too (that could just be them going quiet because of lockdown ending etc I guess)... but I dunno, it's too expensive at times but I hope I get to keep using this place for years to come :P fingers crossed.

Same mate I hope so too , getting too old to b meeting ppl on the streets lol , hopefully will c new vendors to keep us happy mayb prices will come down after this covid blows over ,mayb even a few more shipping to ROI fingers crossed

Yeah to be fair some of the prices do seem to slowly be coming down a little or at least stabilizing after the big jump that happened a couple of month a go. There's some fantastic sellers on here and despite what the cynics will say I know for a fact that a few of them genuinely do care about the issue.

As for ROI I'll never understand it and it'll only get worse as the fucking brexit shit takes hold... I mean I can drive to Ireland in a couple of hours but Royal Mail act like it's crossing the Korean DMZ lmao an Irish based seller would absolutely clean up on here.

I think it's more a customs issue but I think most of us.would still take the risk as long as u get the love letter from customs with the weight an all on it so u no the vendor didn't short u lmao. But joking aside I think we would order without reship option because of customs . Just nice to have more options ,some I would like to try but can't as vendors won't ship

I completely agree. I stopped street dealing because it was a chore (as well as the other DD politics).

It's interesting that I've noticed that same irritating 'Street Smart' Conning on here. So I'm looking for alternatives.

And yes, the prices are getting RIDICULOUS (especially when some arsehat Vendor who I regularly sent tips to after my orders decided to let me down...which has cost me a lot of money).

I'm ready to bounce from LB. And I'm ready to bounce ASAP.

Do you mean darknet markets? or surface web sites? I'm not aware of any other surface web sites that aren't scams. Or am I missing something?

Not darknet,to b honest I don't like using them but it is a must really. I only came across this site maybe 3/4 months ago and I suppose am wondering if I'm missing more lol

There are a couple but don’t think we can mention them on here

Ya cheers mate, I twigged it when wouldn't let me post 1 i use ,pity ,was just curious as I use another darknet but kinda wanted to get away from that , but makes sense u cant post really I suppose was just the forum feel here sometimes

If you google legit weed sites U.K. trust piolot reviews you should find so in :)

Of course I use other sites-no way I'm paying lb prices for weed. LB is pretty good for hash though.

I figure ppl use other sites for sure .
Also just thought I'd say the reason I like this site even though layout is bad and mayb it's not so user friendly is the community feel and some of the ppl on here and venders it feels more comfortable, I like to chat with like minded stoners or just read some topics to pass the time. Most people I have come across on this site have been really nice , helpful and friendly i think that is why I like here so much , in a world where nobody cares about anyone but themselves I find it refreshing to come here and meet different people from all parts of the globe , where there still seems to be a community vibe , a friendly feel ,I find it refreshing and maybe all hope is not lost lol. Apologies I'm stoned and rambling

Yeah man, I get ya. Hit me up if you ever want to chat :)
I’m stoned and rambling most of the time

I'm not too bad during the week but when im off I like to over do it just to b on the safe side lol , you no when u start a big message and near the end u are trying to remember what u were talking about when u stated the message

Very good question. I was wondering the same because I just got hoodwinked by some Vendor on here, and I've decided to look for other places to spend my BTC. Can't be dealing with arsehats on the street and online @ the same time.

Why not use a darknet service? I'm curious how you got scammed on here with the escrow feature?

No, this has absolutely NOTHING to do with escrow.

"It's interesting that I've noticed that same irritating 'Street Smart' Conning on here. So I'm looking for alternatives."

Vendors being street smart does not necessarily involve escrow.

Honestly there are some great vendors on here but prices are expensive, and paying 20+ dollars to Ireland is bit steep when u c others at 6/8 dollars . But I feel u man it's tough when u get burned , I got 2 boys in college so funds are limited so if I get burned or something doesn't show up il most likely go without for a few days. That's mostly the reason I keep a cartridge for the vape stashed for the days without at least I'm still able to get stoned as fuck lol. Mj for cartridges

Joined a few months back and had no problems with multiple sellers. Play it safe and focus on high volume and feedback sellers; give the new ones a miss.

I use coinbase to buy and pay for orders using bitcoin. Ignore the bitcoin price and only buy bitcoin when you immedietly plan to spend it. The price fluctuates like hell and makes no sense to hold it unless you like to gamble. Always add +5% to the amount of bitcoin you need to buy to account for bitcoin network fees and such like. A lot of people don't realise this at first and end up short.

Its worth buying a month or two in one go if you can afford it because that's where the savings are and makes it worth paying for the NDD which would make your experience here a lot smoother too. Obviously not everybody can do this.

Best of luck and happy smoking.

Thanks mate, have Blockchain so hopefully will b alright,thanks for taking time to pass on some knowledge,much appreciated ,happy smoking

Peep Show

might even see me make a cameo or two

The secret ingredient is crime!!!!

I’ve just run to Windsor

Just started watching 'Spaced' again.

I'm 40 now so it is my generation, but it's really good!

(yup showing my age)

It's on all4. Along with Peep Show (which yeah i like too!)

Don't judge me!

Haha

Cheers BB

Oh my god I've got some fucking Jaffa Cakes in my coat pocket. :-)

Hahaha, we've all been there!

https://youtu.be/EcfVqsiesmU

I'm in the middle of re-watching Spaced and felt like I had to scroll for hours to find somebody who finally mentioned it! xD

Well I’ll judge you... if I could give 2 upvotes I would, agree with you totally, 2 of my fave ever shows, making me think of hitting Spaced up again...

Thank you - you just reminded me I need to re-watch spaced again!

I was too old for it even back then, but the clever references still tickle me all these years later..

The Wire
The Ozark
Altered Carbon
Arrested Developement
People Just Do Nothing
Peep Show
Trailer Park Boys
Big Mouth
Fargo
Life On Mars
Dark Tourist
The Wolves Of Yellowstone
Utopia
It's Always Sunny In Philidelphia
Homeland
The Killing
Punisher
The End Of The Fucking World

This is what I can think of right now; definitely more to add. If anyone wants a little review/opinon or rundown on any of these shows let me know, more than happy. Also let me know what you're in the mood for, or usually like to watch and I can fire back with recommendations

Ah fuck it, nothing better to do, haha

The Wire - best thing ever written. Slow burner due to complication of story, but it is relatable as the war on drugs does not have a start or end to it, and street dealing doesn't just start, therefore you are immediately immersed in the story without even realising. Only figured that out the second time watching it. Also some great visual metaphors throughout. Also note there is no cue music to instigate feelings. All music is from source, i.e. car radio, night club. Only cue music is when Avon enters the lowrisers for the first time

The Ozark - Although breaking bad is good, it's not worth the hype. This is the older cooler brother of breaking bad. Calculated and intense at times. Story is always moving forward with real character progression

Altered Carbon - Absolutely fantastic sci-fi with great visuals and a great story line. Really left me itching to read the book, and I'm not a sci-fi fan

Arrested Development - Intelligent comedy with so much layered jokes you can watch this five times and still find punch lines you never noticed before

People Just Do Nothing - Threw this on not expecting much which is perhaps why I found it to be so good. Off the wall characters made completely believable by the actors playing the parts. Excellent idea, excellent execution.

Peep Show - This is a classic, you need to watch this

Trailer Park Boys - Another classic everyone here should be able to relate to

Big Mouth - Great for a background watch, but really funny and does take you back to your teenage years at times, haha

Fargo - Beautiful cinematography, great story captured very close to the original film. Billy Bob absolutely shines in this role in season one

Life On Mars - Made in early naughties, but just as relevant as today

Dark Tourist - good short run of a different kind of travel show. The kind of travel I like too

The Wolves Of Yellowstone - Nature documentary that has a story line Walt Disney would be proud of. Really makes you realise the balance of nature

Utopia - Such an underrated British TV series

It's Always Sunny In Philidelphia - Great zany show about dysfunctional friends who live in their own world, and drink in their own pub causing all kinds of ridiculous antics

Homeland - Great series that will always have you wondering what, or who is next

The Killing - Only recommend the first seasons. It drags you along on the witch hunt convincing you you know the answer

Punisher - About time they stuck to the gritty comic. Refreshing that this i not aimed at kids and fattening wallets.

The End Of The Fucking World - Two out there teens who decide to adventure together with, maybe, disastrous consequences

Peep show one of my all time favs and can't to wrong with arrested development what a classic

Sad that they never manager to run the show normally... And probably we won't se another season ever :( love arrested development

Currently halfway through the first series of Altered Carbon after reading this thread and seeing your recommendation. I'm a PhilipKDick fan and I'm really enjoying it, cheers 👍

Peep show and shameless uk!!

Better call saul is must after braking baf.

100% but do you think you could watch them the other way round and it’s all still as good? As I really do, integrated them amazingly well.

Watched breaking bad, thought it was good, maybe a little over hyped, better call saul never really appealed to me, maybe I should try the 1st few episodes.

Cheers

I think it is better than braking bad

Yeah I agree, I liked BB a lot but I came to it a bit late and like UKgrower hearing the hype maybe expected too much. Better call Saul I didn’t expect much of at all, didn’t think it’d get past Series 1 but now I think it’s better than BB.

Defo watch Saul.
Really new is Gangs of London, not too bad. The fight scenes are brutal.

If you enjoyed Breaking Bad, then give Better Call Saul a go. I always thought he stole every scene he was in during Breaking Bad.

Dark on Netflix. German show about time travel set in a village where kids keep going missing every 33 years. Stunning production values, really intricately plotted, three series, all ties together. Loved it. Has an English dub but the German audio with subtitles is best.

Dark is a masterpiece. Watching S2 whilst really baked was transcendent

The Wire ...

Best show ever made.

Hum.....

this man knows.....

Have you ever watched Travellers? (if you was a fan of stargate back in the day this will interest you) or if your a sci fi fan, Very good story telling and actors (Canadian)

Another one for the list, cheers.

Just spotted the Ricky Garvacie ( sp ) afterlife season 2 is out, thought the 1st series was decent, so that's another to easy the lock down shit TV

If you want a Change and a Tons of one line bombs to drop at work or with your mates there is only one place to go
"Letter Kenny" it will almost make you want to live there
10ply/Sally/Hard No and Bonny McMurryyyyyyyyyyyyyy

And if you want some of the best swearing on telly "The Thick of IT" / In The Loop

Malcom Tucker is a
Best name calling every "Fuckbob Shitpants"

Sorry about the spelling
I am just dislexick @is there a strain that will help with this???

My favourite show of all time is Bojack Horseman, trust me, give it a chance

Rick & morty puts any animated series in a corner sorry :p

Still Game

Gomorrah if you dont mind subtitles, its an Italian crime show set in Naples. Simply brilliant.

Murphys law
Stargate universe, SG1, Atlantis
Firefly
The Expanse
Oz
Banshee
Person of interest
The shield
Hetty Wainthropp investigates

Gomorrah is the shit man, one of my all time favs
Oz is a downer but an awesome show

Ozark
Better call Saul
The wire
Boardwalk empire
Sopranos

Just watched Gangs of London which was banging
Chernobyl was a masterpiece

Yean Gomorrah is probably my number 1 show, the setting, actors, story... superb. Cant wait to watch the Ciro Di Marzio movie too.

Wow I didn’t even know that was a thing? When’s that out?

L'Immortale or the Immortal is the name, was out last year in Italy. Have tried to find out when its out in the UK but no joy yet

Nice one man, I’ll deffo keep my eyes open for that one.

Its on sky atlantic now mate, its certainly worth a watch an sets up the next season of Gomorrah nicely
