The poppies were the opium, weren't they?

Sultanas are seedless grapes. You used to be able to get raisins with stones in, which were seedful grapes and delicious, but troublesome to get the stones out of. Does anyone remember Afghan raisins, the best of the lot? I think all the raisin-growers switched to opium some time ago... Or perhaps not!You just reminded me Afghan Black, mmm. There was some weed chatter on the harbour the other day...much drooling to be witnessed as folk reeled off various favorite smokes. AH

The poppies were the opium, weren't they? Grow opium — get compensation. It's a bit like: be banker/director — get bonus. Or: get elected — draw pension. In other words, better than working.
