DAISY PULLED UP BY POLICE
Police raided a two-bedroomed house in Hollybush Lane, Froghill, last Saturday evening, where they found 600 cannabis plants being grown. The plants were estimated to have a street value of tens of thousands of pounds.
Homeowner Daisy Cutter, 110, was arrested on the premises and taken to Froghill Police Station for questioning.
Arresting officer DS Geoff Bunton, said: “We’ve known for some time that Ms Cutter is partial to a puff or two and we’ve always turned a blind eye.
“But there’s a difference between a recreational spliff now and then and cultivation on this scale. This lot is positively industrial.”
Later however, police were inclined to treat Froghill’s oldest resident leniently, releasing her with a caution on condition that she surrender all her plants.
“It’s such a shame, it took me ages to grow them,” said Ms Cutter sadly as two burly policemen ripped up her handiwork in the conservatory, “and it cost a small fortune in Baby Bio.”
“I mean, what with food, heating bills and my regular copy of Spanker’s Digest, my pension hardly stretches to a quarter of an ounce a month. That’s why I went into cultivation.
“It was all for personal use," she added, "it never even occurred to me to sell it,”
