    Cocaine haul worth £50 MILLION found on Norfolk coast

    The huge haul of drugs washed on up on the Norfolk coast (SWNS)
    A huge £50 million haul of cocaine has washed up on the Norfolk coast.

    The stash could possibly be the biggest drugs find in British history.

    As much as 360 kilos of the class A drug was found in a number of holdalls on beaches in Great Yarmouth and Caister

    Having never used Cocaine but sampled Whisky quite liberally my preferred find would obviously be the Whisky, but never been that lucky.

    seems obvious looking at the pictures that the containers were used as means of flotation ,put in the water to be picked up by somebody else ,either got the running tide time wrong as they misunderstood about slack water time or the pick up boat missed them in the dark,if they strung them like a shank of pots maybe the anchor parted

    Possibly ditched by smugglers and maybe they hoped to go back and retrieve.

    If the bloke who found it brags to all and sundry he could find himself in a car boot before long.

    A chance to become stinking rich, is a once in a lifetime opportunity, that 99.9% of people don't get. Beats me why somebody would phone the law <doh>

    Imagine slinging 360kg in the back of a Focus <laugh>

    I'd have called whoever had a van, and Daniella Westbrooke's agent.

    Where do they get their figures from, it's certainly not off the street. 45 grand a kilo on average, that's 16.2 million.

    They must be working the prices out on individual grams, **** knows what that's working out at, can't be bothered to work it out myself <laugh>

    I don't take drugs myself, mate. I agree they make you weak.

    It wouldn't have been for personal consumption, though. It would have been for a mansion, a yacht and the sexiest bird out of every country in Europe.

    I used to do loads, I was far from weak willed. I was very willing to take it in copious amounts.

    Those people who say "I find it sad that these people can't have a good night without drugs", really have it all wrong. You ain't lived until you've had to call the police because your taxi driver has turned into a spring onion.

    but if you have taken drugs you think that your the best guy in there, everyone who hasn't taken drugs thinks your a moron ....who's right.... besides in the morning you could not remember if you had a good time or were butt ****ed.

    You seem to have a very vivid grasp on it for somebody who hasn't taken drugs.

    There's a stereotype and you're happy to run with that, I'm not wasting my time telling you otherwise, you think what you want. <ok>
