Shrooms in Scotland ?

As I?ve written in another thread we?ll be going to Scotland for a short vacation next January. We?ll stay in Edinburgh and spend at least one day in Glasgow. I understand that fresh shrooms still can be purchased legally in the UK ( and I?ve signed the petition to keep it that way ! ). So here?s my question: Could anyone give some advice, if / where shrooms are sold legally in those cities ?

I may be wrong, but I think that you are going to have to go further South - either that, or you can order online and get delivered to wherever you are staying - I can wholeheartedly recommend www.redeyefrog.co.uk for fast delivery, good prices and quality. Sorry admin/mods - I am neither affiliated to or have any vested interest in this company -I'm just a satisfied punter - so please delete if you feel that this is a commercial post.

Well, thank you. But I?m not sure whether the hotel would be pleased by a delivery like that... We only stay there for four nights, so timing would be an issue as well.

Hi
I would have Sctoland would be a really decent place to hunt shrooms, the weather is generally shittier...I mean, er, wetter, and most of the land is countryside/farming...prime conditions, right?
Also, isn't January too early for the season? I thought it was June-September for Liberty Caps...

hey, don't rule it out, they guarantee delivery before 12 midday, in plain packaging - their contact details are on the website, give 'em a call, you never know what they may be able to sort for you..
other than that, do a search on google for shrooms in the north of England - there may well be a shop in the north/Scotland area.
good luck.
PM me if ya like.

Trinity7, I live in Edinburgh and know of at least two shops that sell fresh mushrooms(dry are illegal) There is one really good one just off Lothian Rd that opened recently, I forget it's name but will try to find it out(If you are walking around this area you will see it easily identifiable as a head shop)
<p>Another place which definately sells them is Whiplash Trash(don't let the name put you off) it is on Cockburn St(which is basically a side-street, so not hard to find)
<p>There is also "The Pipe Shop"- I cannot confirm if this is still selling shrooms, I have never visited it, however it is on Leith Walk if you want to check it out.
<p>Here is an intersting article on the state of the mushroom in Scotland: http://news.scotsman.com/scotland.cfm?id=1370622003 Bear in mind this is a year old and I can confirm that the Purple Haze cafe is no longer in business(they turned it into a Dutch-style coffeeshop and got done for it)
