hi all,

off to a'dam in a couple of weeks after an interval of four years (how did i ever survive?!)

spent a lot of time in the dolphin then, experiencing that perfect 'amsterdam moment'

ok, now i'm really confused - after checking this site for best strains, i decided to seek out the blueberry at my. however, after checking out the 'best coffeeshops' i'm not so sure.

anyone out there just came back? if so, what're the best grass and hash deals in town? am also looking for hash from a bygone era, good nep and afghan.

any advice appreciated.

be easy.

thanks for the tip. without wishing to sound TOOOO cynical - is this the real mccoy or just a 'brand name'?

incidently, the polm i keep seeing on menus, what type of hash is this exactly - it sounds a nice smoke.

Thank you for the information. You have been posted on the June Whos In Town page. Looks like enough people in town someone should do a Meet and Greet.

Nepalese at Stix- I tried this last December and it definitely wasn't the real McCoy. However lots of people on this and other forums rave about it, so perhaps it changes from time to time

bizarrely.. the stuff which felt most like NTB last December was Temple Hash from Blues Brothers, which looks more like a light pollen...
