Stash in the attic
Just been reading about Den Tanner from Pilgrim cars, that's a head shocker , I spoke to him once on the phone seemed a top bloke with some good
advice

This guy seems pretty happy he came to a bad end ...........

Oh so it's not for charging a 10ner to camp at stoneleigh !
Strange what goes on behind closed doors, but if I was growing that amount of weed (I aren't ) you maybe don't want to rub
'LOTS' of people up the wrong way.
Still a big shock though.

More than one or two I think!
But the Filby Tanner nonsense was going publicly in their respective (fairly crap in hindsight) magazines on as I got into the scene and it was
nonsense enough to put fairer mortals off ever building a kit

Have you read any other entries in that blog? The guy comes across as a total loony, angry at everyone and everything.

He seems to have a problem with ...
The Police
Asians
Women
Judges
Americans
The poor
Den Tanner
His mates
Social services
Hopefully some ones got him anger management classes for Christmas

I find it a little hypocritical that he complains so much about someone copying something he has copied.

Wrote to Tanner once asking if he could keep his problems with other people out of his magazine as it was taking up valuable space and I bought the
mag for kit cars not that kind of thing. All I got back was a load of abuse so I wont be crying into my beer for one.

I once complained to him about recycled adverts for cars in his magazine after ringing to enquire about one only to be told the car had been sold
something like 18months previously, He offered a free mag with no apology . He was told to stick it and I have never brought another since

Its amazing the people who are trying to support him. He's a drug dealer with no respect or thought for his family. I also feel for owners of
pilgrim cars.

I find that odd as well....you don't get 4 years inside for growing a little personal weed.

Let's keep it perspective though, its only weed. Hardly crime of the century. In fact they've just legalised it in colorado.

Large scale production of an illegal substance.....for financial gain. Yes, lets keep it in perspective. 4years and 3 months seems about right.

I'd call 1/2 a million £'s worth perspective. So yes very serious, IMO he got off lightly unlike his 'loved' ones.

Should've grown it in Colorado then
It's all a bit of a sorry episode really, and casts a bit of a dark shadow on the kit car industry for me.

Also....how long has he been doing it? Unlikely to be his first go at growing/distribution.

i should imagine it takes some setting up and quite a bit of cash growing that amount of weed, it doesn't say if he had any help or who he was
growing it for but he must know some very dodgy people , something the other guy should but be mindful about when hes slagging him off

Surely he classifies as a dodgy person....sent down for illegal drug production must count as being dodgy.

good point he does count as dodgy , i was just trying to say most normal people wouldn't know where to start with growing and distributing weed
or who's toes they could be standing on, you need to know the right people for production, protection and distribution .... unless he just
watched Lock stock and 2 smoking barrels and thought he could work as an independant trader

And this will not be a new venture....you don't get into large scale production with no knowledge or experience.

very true i can't see it being his first time and somebody in the scene has helped him, if he'd of done it around here without the right
business partners the old bill would have been the least of his problems.
