"It was a very common ingredient in pain relieving medicines back in the day. My great grandmother would refuse to take even an aspirin, but she used tincture of cannabis for her migraines. You could buy it in many places right up until the Second World War."

  1. is it just me, or do cats from 'long ago' look weirder? like that cat in the photo - it has a huge ruff and all its other hair is spikey and standing on end? i don't think you would see that on a cat these days?
