Jeremy Bamber: the Prelude, the Tragedy and the Aftermath

[Steve_uk]

But I guess it leaves us to wonder at which point in the proceedings could Jeremy have transferred the cultivator from Bourtree Cottage to WHF. Whilst no one would ever have suspected Nevill of being involved with illegal drugs, Nevill would never, willingly, have allowed anything smacking of the illegal to be housed/found at WHF.

Could someone please explain the significance of the cultivator, Nevill's licence to grow poppies and any linkage to surveillance of WHF: it's all running through my head.

Steve, in the grand scheme of things, it maybe of no significance whatsoever. If Nevill had a licence to grow poppies -and he probably wasn't the only one-  is it really feasible to imagine he was under any sort of surveillance?

Not with the public expenditure cuts of the 1980s I would have thought. On another note I am missing lookout and look forward to her return from Cleethorpes.

Since posting the above, I've been reliably informed that the plastic box is NOT a propagator. It IS an '85 version of an Eley plastic container for 50 bullets.

Thank-you Steve. I had been wondering where was Lookout. Whilst I rarely agree with anything she says, the forum isn't the same without her input, and I wouldn't like to think she was poorly.

She's one of those posters I miss, along with Campion and several others. I do hope I didn't offend her with choosing her holiday destination and like you hope she is well.

Jane I can assure you it IS a propagator. Look at the electric wire coming from it.
I have been a gardener for many years, and had a identical propagator.

You could get 7,00 bullets in that box.

He didn't grow opium poppies, he grew hemp. Some farms do now grow the opium poppy but only since 2002. http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-1028504/The-opium-fields-England--heroin-producing-poppies-grown-make-NHS-pain-relief-drugs.html

Looks to me like it is just stuff that was removed from the cupboard so they would take a picture to show the depth of it.

Hey Buddy, don't shoot me. I'm just the messenger. I wouldn't know the difference between a propagator and a bullet box if my life depended on it!!!!

No intention of shooting Jane, shoot the informant

yes it certainly looks like a propagater,a' heated version' a few friends who like to grow they own 'herbs' have the same one.he may not have been using it at the time of the murders.but just kept it for future use ,anyway he's cunning enough to have moved it that morning from his locked bedroom to the office.homegrown cannabis was not common in the 80's ,but it does make you wonder abouts the reports of jb growing cannabis
