Re: Utopia

Hello folks, still a couple of hours before I start my last shift but I thought i'd field these comments. Pipo - I'm not sure where you get the idea of "nondescript shake" from the very descriptive reply I had given, but if you're never going to visit, then you're never going to know so I ...

Re: Utopia

Hello folks just thought I'd pop by and say a quick hello and wish you all a merry xmas. I'm off to the island for my first xmas with my family in many years, really looking forward to it. Spare a thought for James and Jess who are working all through the holiday, keeping you high and happy. I'll be...

Re: Butchers in Amsterdam

Keema, on the Kinkerstraat is a good butcher with decent prices and they at least label their horse meat as horse meat! For a top quality butcher, though not the cheapest, there's a place in the alley opposite the small Abraxas on Spuistraat has sold me some of the finest beef I've ever had. Hope yo...

Re: Utopia

So when i get there on January 2nd, your hours are from 6pm? Well, technically I think that early January will be an official school holiday so we should be allowed to be open all hours that week. It seems ridiculous that we're now going to have to arrange our schedule around the official school ca...

Re: Utopia

Hestia, as Colino says above,we will still be open but operating under the new limited opening hours. While I won't be behind the counter any more I'll still be around so I hope to see you then and I'm sure Ingi and the crew will take great care of you and the 420 crowd in the hours allowed. Still w...

Re: Utopia

Having one of those days like being back on the island and waiting for the phone to ring. There has been a bit of a delay with the return of the Citral, I'm still hoping it will arrive today but I'm playing the waiting game right now. Also on the horizon is a brief appearance of the Champagne Haze- ...

Re: Utopia

Many thanks to Slimline for getting on top of the spam hordes. It's nice to see the forum back to normal. Hope all the attendees enjoyed themselves at the cup. What did everyone think of the results? I didn't get to try the winning entry, but I did have a go on their second place winning Shoreline s...

Re: Utopia

Hello again folks and thanks for your kind words. I'll certainly look back fondly on my years behind the bar here after I'm done. Thinking about Utopia's situation as we go on with these new rules I can only conclude that it could be worse. Homegrown Fantasy, which is across the street from us is go...

Re: Utopia

Hello folks, Today we got our letter from the government telling us where we stand on the 250 metre rule. It's kind of a good news/bad news situation.

Re: buying in coffee shop Ander 18

I'll say this politely- Don't even try, you will not be welcome.

I know it seems like a long time, but if you wait 12 months you will all have a much more enjoyable trip.

In fact, if you show up on your 18th birthday it's been known for some places to give out free birthday space cake.
