So you're saying you had 7g of stinkyweed in your checked baggage coming home on a flight from Amsterdam?!

Holy crap, RESPECT!

I really loved the pics of the foods and treats.
Not a hash fan eh ?

Truth is I grew up in Scotland around some of the most horrible soapbar "hash" you can find. My brother used to smoke it and it really put me off. However, I have made some really tasty little bits of finger / scissor hash as home, which were really potent!

My problem in Amsterdam is that I don't know where to start or what I'm going to like, but I would love to try some decent hash.

The Leo and Kate movie was Revolutionary Road.
....
Do not ever watch this movie.

That was the movie

I saw the very end I guess, because we saw the home abortion and guessed she died when Leo looked even more distraught than usual

lol

I've brought some back the last 4 times. I'd prefer to do that than mail it due to our circumstances.

Literally one of the best reports I have ever read, got me properly stoked for the Cup in a couple of weeks, thank you.

Thank you everyone for posting, really appreciate it

I'll try and take some better pics next time!

Hey Nepenthe..fantastic report I enjoyed every minute of it thanks for taking the time. So gouda and black widow two of my favourite smokes from my last trip. Pity you missed out on the s5... Well you'll just have to book some tickets to go back! Must have been nice to have a few days sans daughter. I know as much as I love mine I can't wait for my 3 days in the dam without her hehe (no one to jump on my head at 6 in the morning to wake me up!). After this report I better up my game for mine. Take it easy, Niz

Yeah I was looking forward to the s5... but like you say there will always be another trip

It was definitely nice to have a few days away, we don't live near any family so we don't really get any free time. Our trips to Amsterdam are one of the few times that we get to be alone together! Although hopefully on our next trip we will be able to visit with some friends. I'm sure the more the merrier.

Hope you enjoy your holiday

Truly a great report & thanks for taking the time, this has wetted my appetite for when i hit town on monday.

Also, myself, like the guy in your report (you and G overheard), have not been to the Dam for 20 years, but such nonsense will not be uttered by me.

.

Btw tell G he has great footballing taste.

wonderfull report!

it seems like G always got the better of the purchases when you two bought a gram each... i guess the proverb "the grass is always greener", never fitted better eh?

i really enjoyed reading this, thanks so much for the time and effort.

Haha, that's quite random

We left both our two grinders there, the green one works far better than the red. Hopefully they didn't throw them away and you have a free grinder

Buzzy I am sure you will have a great time, hope you have plans of a few coffeeshops to start you off, you're gonna be so stoned

Enjoy!

CSS, yeah sometimes it felt like that! I felt a bit like a tour guide at times, dragging him around to this CS or the other, and I mostly had an idea of what I wanted to try before I got there. So giving him first dibs on what to roll was my way of making him think he had a choice somewhere along the line
