Grandma's Secret Ingredient

A grandmother is facing jail after cooking up recipes laced with cannabis.

Patricia Tabram, 66, began using the illicit drug in her country kitchen as a "natural remedy" to ease a painful back injury after a car crash. Soon she was throwing dinner parties for elderly friends who chipped in £150 a time for the secret ingredient in her unique "hot pots".

But local police were quickly on the scent of her mind- blowing soups, curries and chocolate cake. She guided five officers to the attic, where they found 31, 10in-high seedlings and self-seal bags used to supply the drug to unnamed friends. "They thought it was in a hut outside," she recalled, "But I told them it wasn't. "They took my diaries, my nail scissors which I used to cut up the buds, and my pamphlets and books which I used for research."

2 Well, it's good to know that's one less criminal at the dinner party. I can sleep at night.
