A few grams of ket

I never knew it was slang for sweets in the 60s.. I heard someone talking about ket the other day (an innocent woman) and I just had to pull her on it before looking it up on Google..

I remember the first ever event I went to where I knew nothing about drugs bar pills & coke & remember crazy Jimi asking anyone if they had any ket. I honestly thought he meant sweets.

I thought it was a Hartlepool thing?

Iv called sweets ket since I was a nipper like, its a saying you find in most pit villages aint it???

First time I heard this was on a home visit to this woman who had a 3 year old son. She was like "he wouldn't stop whinging so in the end I went out and bought him some ket" I thought, surely to god this woman isn't admitting this to a social worker. Then he came in the room with his ket and I realised what it was!

your all so fucked up

Aye i think it is, i lived in Sunderland til i was about 10/11 and it was standard language there, though when i moved to the toon it isnt nearly as well known.
