A few days ago reports started to appear in media that Ketamine, an anaesthetic normally used by vets, is getting more and more used as a club drug. Nottingham now is apperently the cheapest place to get it. Apperently costing an average of £31 a gram in the UK, in Nottingham the prices can be as low as £15. At the moment the drug is legal to carry, but new legislation will see it become a class C drug soon.
