2019 Aged 20 I was out with some friends from work when I bumped into a group of people I knew. Whilst I was talking to these people, I left my drink foolishly unattended and when I returned and drank the drink I very quickly became unwell. I was very lucky that one of the girls I worked...

While out with girl friends in XXX one of my friends was clearly spiked. The door staff and management fobbed it off. Instead of helping they chucked my friend out. Disgusting that venues like this operate this way in this day and age.
