HARDCORE fans of The Beatles legend John Lennon uncovered where in
the grounds of his Surrey home in southern England he hid his stash
of LSD more than 40 years ago, The Sun newspaper in the UK reports.
Builders digging up the lawn of his old house, Kenwood, came across
the remains of a leather holdall containing several large broken
glass bottles. Legend has it that Lennon buried a large quantity of
the drug in his garden in 1967 when The Beatles declared they had
given up drugs in favour of transcendental meditation.
But when the band returned from India, John decided he had been a bit
hasty and tried to dig it up - but never found it.
Now fans are convinced these bottles contained the missing treasure
-- though they will never know for sure as the one bottle found
intact had a cracked cork, so it was empty.

JOHN LENNON experts are taking a, er, trip down memory lane with
their latest finding.
Hardcore fans of the BEATLES legend reckon they have uncovered where
in the grounds of his Surrey home he hid his stash of LSD more than
40 years ago.
Builders digging up the lawn of his old house, Kenwood, came across
the remains of a leather holdall containing several large broken
glass bottles. Legend has it that John buried a large quantity of the

up drugs in favour of transcendental meditation.
But when the band returned from India, John decided he'd been a bit
hasty and tried to dig it up - but never found it.
Now fans are convinced these bottles contained the missing treasure -
though they will never know for sure as the one bottle found intact
had a cracked cork, so it was empty.
It's for the best. They'd have to flush it down the toilet anyway.
