Ross-on-Wye, Hereford must have thought the world had gone into reverse when they spotted dustmen delivering rubbish at night to the shy folk living in Lawless Cottage, a remote dwelling above the town.

The "dustmen" were undercover policemen who suspected Lawless Cottage of being an LSD drug

factory, the centre of an international smuggling operation. At night, they exchanged the gang's rubbish for plastic sacks containing fake rubbish. The evidence collected resulted in five gang

members receiving sentences of up to 12 years. The charges did not include "wasting" police time.
