Hi Winnie, very interesting and quite moving in parts but unfortunately done in a schmaltzy Discovery Channel style and annoyingly contradicted itself right at the end by saying that all but two of the men in the photo remain anonymous to this day when clearly 4 of them had been positively identified.

CHEERS!!

Having a Bupa health assessment at the moment and now waiting for the results, but so far they have told me I have the lungs of a 29 year old I'm 40. Fingers crossed for the rest of the results.

[Smirks]

All seems ok, just marginally high cholesterol and a few more kilos to shed from my belly. Still amazed about my lungs.

That's great Smirks! Considering the epic wands you smoked during your vacation... all I can say is "wow".

[Smirks]

Gonna celebrate with a few OG Kush and sour d bubble hash bowls...wand lit of course

Hey Stan, happy new year! Hope all is well. Not planned any trips yet this year buy I'm gonna try and have a few short visits in the next few months.

My wand is better than these. Firstly it's quartz not glass so more durable. Secondly there's no need for a rounded ball at the end, as it makes no difference as you are rarely ramming it all the way into the bowl. In the vid they showed they are not heating it up properly, as it's far too close to the flame. I heat it furthet away and it gets much hotter and is far more effective. I still hover over the herb but it cherries it and is much more satisfying than just using it to vape.

all good man see u soons maybe

Fantastic travelogue reports from Smirks. I spent a pleasurable hour reading and digesting them from beginning to end.

Hope to be dusting out the Amsterdam Essential Travel Kit again soon. The quartz wand is still holding up remarkably well after over 3 months of heavy daily use. Going to book up my flights and digs this week.

So, that Dice Man T & T with a twist...more on that soon. Hope to catch up with old and new alike.

[Smirks]

Never did get round to booking my flight and digs back in February, but I have finally done the flight bit. It's cost me a tad more than it would have, but I'm staying a day longer than originally planned, so it's a fair trade for the extra 30 quid that a whole two months did to the price. It still came in at under a 100 anyway. Easyjet, best cheap airline in the world.

In the words of the Very Reverend D W Love of the First Presleyterian Church of Elvis the Divine (UK) "sit on back and relax and dig your heels in, cos it's gonna be a bumpy ride fellas"

Accommodation booked. I've taken a smoke friendly studio apartment near Vondelpark, with roof terrace. Hope the weather holds up. Last year I had a similar place but it rained every day so got no use.

Checking in 2 hours after I land so extended pit stop in Utopia before getting the tram there, methinks.
