He admitted he took “a line” of the Class A drug during a hunting weekend and had since “consumed some more”.
He wrote: “Of course I had been taking cocaine at that time. At someone’s house, during a hunting weekend, I was offered a line, and since then I had consumed some more.
“It wasn’t very fun, and it didn’t make me feel especially happy as seemed to happen to others, but it did make me feel different, and that was my main objective.
“To feel. To be different.
“I was a seventeen-year-old willing to try almost anything that would alter the pre-established order.
“At least, that’s what I was trying to convince myself of.
“At that time, I was as capable of lying to myself as I had lied to that staff member.”
