Re: Prices

It's been nearly a year since I was last over in Amsterdam, but the last few times I stayed at the West Side Inn (now Best Western) - sort of half way between the Amsterdam Nieuw-West and Amsterdam-Zuid districts and quite easy to get to on the number 2 tram at the Westlandgracht stop - trams are ro...

Indeed.

If it ain't broke, don't fix it.

Re: De Kuil (420 Cafe)

For many years this place was my ritual start of every trip. Off the train, straight towards the comforting warmth of De Kuil and sit down with whatever haze (420 or Nevilles) was recommended... And then the craziness with daytime closures!!! I'm so glad that school has closed/moved or whatever... H...

Re: Hotel Voyagers

I've seen people booted out the door on the 1st day of a 4 night stay. No refunds. Discretion is the key. Stand on the balcony, balance out of the window or use a vape. Just remember that if you get caught, you're not just breaking hotel rules, you're breaking the law. The hotel itself can be at ris...

Re: Hotel Voyagers

Well yeah... Some VERY specific rules to be honest! I have no doubt that some people still do smoke in the rooms, tho it's been a while since I've seen the whole hotel emptied in the early hours because someone broke those rules. I'm not going to get into whether or not smoking should or should NOT ...

Re: Old members

Still here.. Still posting...

Met a few good people from the forum while in Amsterdam over the years - I miss some of the banter from the old days, but times move on...

Haven't been able to hit the Dam for over a year now, but things are looking up.. Hopefully later this year for a big blowout!

Re: Hotel Voyagers

The rooms are only released in blocks throughout the year - from the look of Hotelrunners' website, October onwards isn't available yet..

If you see an entire month blocked out like that across ALL the rooms in the entire hotel, that's generally what it means...

Re: Arizer Extreme-Q.. better than the Volcano??

It's been used pretty much every day since I bought it and I have to admit that there's a couple of little things that I've noticed - a couple of times (including today, 5 minutes ago!,the unit has shut off... I've since realised that I'd switched on the timer and somehow missed the bright green LED...

Re: Arizer Extreme-Q.. better than the Volcano??

Lol Willjay! Don't tempt me! I can get hold of that stuff fairly easily, but I think it might be a little more "Extreme" than the Extreme-Q needs to be for me! 3 days in, and I cannot find a fault with this thing. It produces an astonishing amount of vapour for such a relatively smaller lo...

Re: Arizer Extreme-Q.. better than the Volcano??

Well... Package arrived! Super slow delivery from Amazon, but right after I had this one for £130 (Last One!), the same sellers were selling the same thing again for £149! Ordered last Saturday - arrived Friday. Oh well - I'm still in the win zone here... Well, it's smaller than I expected somehow.....

Re: Arizer Extreme-Q.. better than the Volcano??

Nice one RoMoney... Well - my cooling off period didn't last long. Just bought one off Amazon. £130 inc free shipping. I was watching a couple on Ebay for £139.99, but I thought - tenner off! That's an extra bowl or two right there... :shock: What the hell... I need something to improve my mood - ha...
