NUTHALL MAN 'GREW DRUGS FOR FOOD'

A Cocaine user claimed he was growing his own cannabis to sprinkle on top of pizza and to put in sponge cakes, a court heard.
Stephen Hallam, 53, of Albert Avenue, Nuthall, admitted growing six plants in a disused bathroom attached to his house.
He told Nottingham Crown Court he grew cannabis to put in food.
A police raid uncovered the small crop and £4,000 of cocaine in a tub on a coffee table in the conservatory.
Hallam was yesterday found guilty of possessing more than £4,000 of cocaine, which he had denied.
Hallam said he installed an extractor fan on the side of the bathroom to keep the cannabis facility secret from his wife.
But he denied any knowledge of the 60g of cocaine, which was found in a tub when police raided his home at 7.40am on April 3. Hallam said this was left by two men who were at a party at his home. Hallam said he was once a heavy cocaine user, but had cut down.
He had been buying and selling Koi carp over several years.
Stuart Lody, prosecuting, said: "The only reason somebody would have a quantity of that much cocaine would be to sell it. And nobody, not even wealthy people, throw £4,000 away. It does not happen in the real world."
Hallam earlier admitted there may have been traces of cocaine on the scales and spoon he used to measure out treatments for his fish. He said he also used the scales to measure out cocaine for personal use.
The court heard that Hallam started his £12,000-a-year Koi business after he and his wife stopped working in a fish and chip shop. Sharon Hallam, who is not charged, runs an Aloe Vera business, earning about £5,000 a year.
Mr Hallam had recently bought a Mercedes CLK 55 costing about £33,000, the court was told.
Hallam was found guilty of possessing 59.15 grams of cocaine with intent to supply. He was remanded in custody and will be sentenced on March 10.
Mr Lody made an application under the Proceeds of Crime Act for an investigation into Hallam's assets.

There's a difference between disused, implying something that was once used is no longer being so, and unused, implying that something has not been used.
It'd be inaccurate to describe the bathroom as unused, because it is being used.

If i was a heavy cocaine user, i would definitely sell koi carp. That sounds like a sweet career.
And his wife sells Aloe Vera. Wtf.
