Rembrant square has large screens up,facing out to the square, so i would expect that to be packed when the dutch are playing.

If you can handle stick from an Irishman when we eventually go out.

Stones Cafe could be a good shout as well, apparently the Dutch doormen likes to rip when England loose as well ( citing when Northern Ireland beat England for an example.)

Basically, go Nes, you're going to be ripped either way, at least the guy at Nes does decent grog and is known for vapour bag related madness.

I've tried to go to Nes a few times following the map and can never find the entrance ?

Is there a secret knock of something?

Benny, entrance is only granted on presentation of this sacred object.

Benny, the number on the door is 33...of course there's a secret knock....nah, maybe you came along before 4pm when we open. Coco's will be packed for the world cup, should be a good atmosphere. We'll probably be busy too, but a bit more chilled...until somebody scores.

Alright Niall, how's it goin....let out early for good behaviour?. :D

Not too bad DC, hows the form with yourself?

:lol:

Good behavior is probably the best way to describe it, it definitely didn't involve anything to do with tunnels....
