h2g2 The Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy: Earth Edition

if I am a working class English guy in my mid twenties, recreational drug user, talking to my pal?
Time: the end of the 1990s.
Place: South East England
(Translation problem)

Thanks

Well, here in the West Country back in the 90s, people would normally refer to doing hash or doing an eighth unless they were using skunk, which was always treated as a separate product altogether (super skunk...very bad...very bad....). Occasionally, you would hear someone mention doing resin or doing leaf, if they needed to be more specific on the type. People in their thirties would sometimes call it blow, but they always sounded like old hippies when they did (and if this post doesn't get auto-yikesed by the BBC filters I'll be amazed.

Writing a novel by any chance?

Thanks!
As to writing a novel, no, only translating a novella

Here, in the South East, well East anglia, 'gear' was often just used (this would have been early 1990's,), or skunk (for that particular type), or just 'hash', 'Green', or 'resin' ...

Thank you!
