Drug War Casualty? - What Do Drug Tests Test For (UK)?

[tawraste]

ladies and gentlemen,
may i introduce myself to you - my name is tawraste. i have read some of the posts on this site and i do believe that here lies the most knowledgable and experienced people to assist me with my friend's problems that i have found so far.

please do not be afraid - this is not an emotional plea. allow me to explain :

my friend is a loyal and dedicated follower of the teachings of our great cultural icons, has been for years. on no account would this individual turn down an esoteric adventure.
but then, distaster struck. big time.
having aquired a rather well paid job, said friend thought the numbers had come in. in fact, for a while, they literally had. large anonymous plastic bags for everyone ensued. much joy permeated the reality around this person.
then, the hammer blow - "we shall be introducing random drug and alcohol testing" said the friends' employers. oh dear.
thing is, the employer is still in the dithering stage, but due to their frankly quite ruthless approach, said friend is already in the bomb shelter.

this means no illegal substances. at all.

until the tests involved are determined, consequences cannot be planned for. said friend is currently getting by with vintage alcohol. a worthy past time, but lacking in the qualities of life that sustain us all.

owing to the slow progress the employer may choose to undertake, investigations have been sanctioned into the discovery of substances that are not on the hitlist.

so here is the big question :

what's out there that's not being tested for and is technically legal?

said friend is quite keen on practical requirements, in fact; he's a bit of a wizard. so please, any and all suggestions may in themselves be lifesavers.

the issue is not in a drug of choice, the issue is maintaining the perspective that sees hunters' water mark.

please help my friend, he cannot break the law, but he must, must get high - in fact, as often as possible.

feel free to post. banana skins need not apply, real results are required please.

with advances in detection technology and roadside testing imminent, this thread could help us all.

many thanks, and respect,

tawraste
