Barnsey: "I did 10 grams of coke a day"

Tuesday, November 27, 2007
How are you after the heart surgery earlier this year?
Good. Not great always, but good. I had my first gym session last week and did some weakling 10kg bench presses and some pull-ups. I’m more into yoga these days. If I do too many weights I end up like looking to Barney Rubble.

Was the “two bottles of vodka a day” story an exaggeration?
If anything it was probably an understatement. It was probably more like three, and it was whisky as well most of the time. I used to go really hard and I was also a serious coke-head – like 10 grams every day. I’d wake up, snort coke first thing in the morning and when you’re that high, you can drink a shitload. And I did.

Do you miss the drugs and booze?
Not at all. Seeing people drink where they get to the point they tell you some rubbish over and over again, I’m glad I’m not that person now. Also, I don’t think I could take it mentally.
