    Yes, I'm planning on being completely honest anyway. Mainly worried as I stopped as soon as I was told to but it still might show up.

    Thanks for the replies everyone, yes I am an idiot x

      I'm not sure that admitting that you have commited a criminal offence, and have current (or very near current) associations with other criminals is wise for DV.
      You're almost certainly going to fail.

      I know we suggest honesty on these checks but that's usually for things that you've been done for already.

      If you think you might show positive, then surely a quick trip to Amsterdam, where it's legal, prior to the check, is a better explanation?

      If they already know you smoke then you'll also probably fail for no other reason than the criminal contacts you must have.

      On this one I'd just stay schtum.
      See You Next Tuesday

        And remember not eat any seeded bread.

        Some of those little seeds come from poppies.

        When the fun stops, STOP.

          Don't try and beat the test. Hair follicles also give them an idea of when you smoked so that should back an honest story.
          Don't believe the hype about DV, my interview was finished after 1hr. When they asked if they had missed anything we went for another 2hours. They missed BIG stuff, like as big as possible. But just be honest throughout, they don't care that you smoked weed. They might care if you are dealing the stuff and in debt to a local gangster.

          Good luck!

            What was it about illegal drugs that appealed to you and highlighted your lack of sound judgement?

              And prove your ability to be dishonest.

              Good call Lance.
