Notes: Paul was busted for growing marijuana at his Scotland farm from seeds a fan had sent him (so he says).
So on this day in March 1973 Paul & Linda faced the charges at the Sheriff`s court in Campbeltown in Scotland claiming they had no idea the plants were illegal!
When they were leaving the courthouse a camera crew from the BBC managed a short interview (in lovely colour)
with Paul & Linda which is interesting because Paul keeps a straight face throughout despite obviously finding the whole thing a bit of a joke.
