An 83-year-old man has become Britain's oldest convicted drug dealer after he was caught growing nearly 200 cannabis plants. Francis Cook was jailed for two-and-a-half years after turning to dealing to supplement his pension. His operation was foiled when police raided his bungalow and found books on how to grow the class B drug. Officers seized £1,391 in cash, scales.The grey-haired pensioner - nicknamed Snowy - also had keys to an industrial unit in his Ford Escort van. Police searched the unit, in Fareham, Hants, and found 182 skunk plants with a street value of £70,000. Cook’s fingerprints were found on a lightbulb and on one of three separate growing areas.

Now if that doesn't give our aged population an idea for some pin money, then lets have a government spokesperson give his views, any encouragement our old folks can get from us, didn't they try to-do their best for us.
...................So Granny get growing get cooking:
Marijuana Space Cake:
1 3/4 Cups of all-purpose baking flour
8 1/2 Cups of milk
2 Eggs
1 Cup of sugar
1 Cup of butter
Non-stick cooking spray
8 grams of good marijuana (you can use more if you want stronger space cakes)
Optional: Cocoa, chocolate chips, peanut butter, pineapple, apple, anything that you can mix into a regular cake to add some extra flavor
How To Bake Your Space Cake:
First, put your butter in the microwave for about 20 seconds until it becomes pasty.
Add your marijuana to the butter, make sure it is ground up well and mixed into the butter good.
Preheat your oven to 400 degrees F.
Spray the non-stick cooking spray onto the cake pan.
Mix your marijuana butter, flour, eggs, milk, sugar, and any extra ingredient you want to add. Keep mixing until the batter is smooth. If it is too dry add some milk, if it too liquidy add some flour.
Pour your space cake batter into the pan and put it in the oven for about 25 minutes.
Before taking out the space cake, stick a toothpick in it to see if any of the cake sticks to it, if it the toothpick comes out clean, the cake is done.
Let it cool down for about 30 minutes before taking it out of the pan or adding frosting...'see simples....
