The Annual Four-Twenty Gathering - 20th April 2017

[Lemming]

We've had a planning meeting on chat. Discussed various options but eventually consensus seemed to be HSB because it's big and very close to the boat.

That means we won't pass the Newmarkt AH on the way to the boat but there are a couple of smaller shops on Lange Niezel that we will pass so it sounds like a plan.

So, 12 Abraxas, 2 HSB, 3.30 Macky marches us to the boat, 4 - 5.30 on the boat, 6 Utopia. Do we want to fit in a webcam wave there somewhere? If so, between Abraxas and HSB or between boat and Utopia?

(I'm grinning as I type this knowing that all of these detailed plans will go to pot once we get there and get stoned)

count me in!

18.4. - 21.4., staying in zandvoort

Well we can deploy the fietsers in the group on a reconnaissance mission to do a beer run just before we attempt to herd our cats from HSB to the boat.

Webcam wave after boat for sure. Doing so beforehand only sounds like a good way to have a whole gaggle of stoners stuck halfway across town when launch time comes!

I wasn't suggesting immediately beforehand, only between Abraxas and HSB, about 1.30 or something. After sounds good though. If the boat docks at 5.30 and Utopia doesn't open until 6, we could go wave between.

* Batavia kinda stands in for the Nes as a default nightcap these days.
I, for one, expect to finish most evenings there.

Talking of defaults, Utopia around opening time is often a good place to find us too.

[CopenhagenCouple]

We couldn't wait, so changed flights, dates are now 16th - 21st

[macky]

18.4. - 21.4., staying in zandvoort

[KeyMonCha]

Will be there April 20-22nd. Super excited!!1

Welcome mate.... Hope we see you in the mix!


13 days exactly until check-in!!! Woooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo!!!!

[Lemming]

Getting close enough for some early weather forecasts now. Up as far as Wednesday 19th they're talking 15+ degrees and mostly dry. I'll keep making vaped offerings to the weather gods in hope of keeping it that way or even better.

I'm hoping to do the Stud expedition on foot if possible. Biking would be fun but that involves renting a bike and taking responsibility for it. Tram is quick and easy but I'd prefer to walk if it's dry.

Who's joining me at The Stud anyway? I promised the owner some hardcore smokers so I hope it's not just me.

[CopenhagenCouple]

The count is now three hardcore stoners then, cuz the two of us are in, couldn't keep us away!

...but as we are hardcore amsterdam feits fetishists as well we will be flying around town on our trusty iron horses, rented from Mike "the iron horse master"!

[Smirks]

Hi Lemming, count me in, I'll be a foot soldier too.

[Lemming]

CopenhagenCouple & Smirks - Excellent!

14 day forecast says 12-14C, partly cloudy for Saturday 15th through to 20th. It said showers earlier, though, and it keeps changing!
