If we had that just sitting around and we knew the work situation of the missus come july, we would already be booked on a KLM flight to Toronto YYZ with a 17 hour layover in Amsterdam on the way there (what a tragedy! ;) )...

Now if we don't blow 7k+ on an all out 420+Kingsday trip in April (was kinda thinking something like that but that could easily be scaled down to reasonable levels, or something ;) ) and we get a bit more clarity wrt the work situation of the missus, we are soooo fucking in!!! :mrgreen: :mrgreen: :mrgreen:

Dear brother in name and spirit, you and your lovely wife have outdone yourselves, what an offer! We shall offer any service we can render in return and still be in your debt for years to come! :mrgreen: :mrgreen: :mrgreen:
My wife was hoping you guys where in 8) Hope job works out. Was thinking big 420…but now will be growing a crop in anticipation of your guys arrive :D Plan on it being hot around high twenty,s to low 30c. finger,s crossed you can make it.

Yes, the ACD will be 20 on 3rd July 2018. We celebrated its 10th birthday watching Massive Attack in Amsterdam. I can't remember who else was there but I do remember cruising around with Ohm Sweet Ohm and Bleak on Ohm's boat the following year.

To mark the 10th birthday I found and uploaded a copy of the very first site. It's still available here if you're interested: First ACD.

Now that 20 years have passed I doubt anyone here but me remembers when it looked like that!

Birthday Bash

I had mentioned the idea of inviting a few people to ACD Towers to celebrate and Spidergawd said that we should do it in an Amsterdam coffeeshop. Mr and Mrs Macky's offer to host a bash at their place is very generous and the coincidence with legalisation day in Canada seems appropriate. I'm up for this. Much thanks for the offer, Mr and Mrs Macky!

4/20

I'm still up for Amsterdam in April if anyone else is going for it so we can still keep up tradition in an Amsterdam coffeeshop. In fact, if the original 420 Café is going to be open again at 4:20 then we might even be able to fully resurrect the tradition.

Barcelona

I'm also still up for the proposed trip to Barcelona in early November this year if anyone else is.
Can not be done with out you guy,s 8) Chase down Budtender…think him and his misses bought travel van..should make it easy for them :D More the merry,more time I get e.g. who.s in list I can plan a cat herding debacle for the ages.

I now have my dates in stone ( no refunds) 28.06.18 to 08.07.18. Flights booked.

It is up to you as to how long you want to stay and what dates.

When going to Canada you need to complete an eTA form online before you go, I suggest you get this done asap.
It costs 7 Canadian dollars, you will need your passport when completing it.
