I think this is Nitrous Oxide N2O or Laughing gas, similar to what the dentist give you. It does have a very short acting euphoric effect.

Not as harmful as sniffing glue but still not something I would be happy for my children to do.

Yeah Tom - I will give you that. A lot of young people are mature, and just as intelligent and knowledgeable as any youth in any other era. The trouble is that most of them seem to be Tibb members judging by the mindless morons in our town and city centres every weekend, and the evidence of numerous reality documentaries and other media articles.

Be honest now Tom A lot of UK 'Yoof' think an 'Election' is a Chinese Hard On.

Do you mean like pre-Election promises from the Tories and Labour?

11 is obviously too young to be doing stuff like this but laughing gas is pretty harmless and gives a very short-lasting effect, a lot of bars in Europe have will openly sell it with no issue. Seems to be quite a recent sensationalism around it with all this about it being a "deadly legal high" and "hippy crack"

Nobody's making money from it yet that's why, they'll brand it and then suddenly I'll be safe.

Cynical but perfectly true Kizzy. Nothing is more long term dangerous or potentially addictive than tobacco and alcohol, but these are legit because of the incredible revenues they bring in for our Chancellor.
