Yeah I found out about this in my small amount of research. I was refering to pure recreational use - British Victorian literature would have you believe that London was a churning cesspool of opium dens when in fact only a handful of Chinese actually lived in the city and it was barely a problem at all. It was far more commonly used in New York.
