MATE! Thats a great review, lots of great details. cheers for posting.

that fella who says your weed intake is scary, isnt lying. im tempted to go back through this and count how much you had. i do about 3 grams a day in the dam, and i get wasted. but then i do drink through it too which doesnt help.

my only advice to you is knock the burger kings on the head mate

its all about falafels and shoarma kebabs out there.

Nah, I like junk food, fuck I enjoy a good home cooked meal aswell though. When In the Dam Food aint a priority, smoking all the strains I cant smoke in the Burgh is

BTW I dont drink at all anymore, Smoking Ganjay is my one and only vice

Here's the next installment anyhoo!

Sunday June 8th

Up real early and am Bloody starvin. I grab a spliff I rolled from last night and go down for breakfast. Munch up and smoke out on the terrace then back to the room for a shower. I put the Bees on the I-pod and prepare for the day. Today I plan to go to Haarlem. Fire off a txt to Cantona to confirm plans then off into the Amsterdam sunshine. A slow and familiar walk up through the canals and I'm at the new Dampkring. I order 2g's Mako Haze and a brew and wait for cantona. Not long after Cantona shows up some boy Gives me his bit hash as he leaves for the airport. Only problem was it was Shitbrick he brought from the U.K. I mean who smuggles Shitbrick into AMSTERDAM!?! anyway as soon as he goes I show Cantona just how bad shitbrick is by burning it so he can smell it and I'm rewarded by the look on his face. Priceless. Shitbrick Binned we head off to the station and were off to Haarlem. Once there we walk down past the Sad looking Sativa, taking a minute to remember the good times I've had there then onward and into Empire. I struggled to even look at the menu at first as the lady tender may have been the most attractive woman i'v ever seen. Focusing for a second I noticed they had a whole seperate section on the menu for Hazes. I opt for Mexican @ 12 Euros and am not dissapointed. A cracking haze which tastse excellent. From here we roll to the grote markt (sp) where there was a Big comic book convention type thing. Ambling through the stalls I enjoy looking at the artwork, comics are not really my thing but I do like the artwork. That shit takes real talent to produce. We continue on till we hit the river then follow it round to the left till we're at the Indica. I've not been here for a few years and it had all changed since then. For the better I think. Its not as open plan as I remember but its nice. I get a gram of the nicest, most compact orange bud i've ever had. I swear you could smash windows with these nugs and a gram of willies choice. I also go halves on a gram of power-ice with Cantona. I roll up some orange bud with the power-ice and a little sprinkle of the BlueBerry Ice cantona had picked up at mellow yellow to poduce a lovley spliff. I also hit a little of the Ice in my pipe. Chill here for a good while befor setting off in search of Birdy. A quick pit stop at the BurgerKing at the trainstation and we were good to go. Finding Birdy no problem made me laugh, I'v looked for this place twice before, even walking right down the street to Key West and not spotting it. I buy 10euro bag of Bio, Cantona gets NL. this entitles us to another 10euro bag for 5 euros, who could refuse! So I pick up the Knetter. The Lady who served us had very red eyes and a cheshire cat smile. She made me feel very welcome. She even rumaged around thru the bags of weed just to find some good looking bags for us. Saying " here this one has a bigger bud" Very cool. Stayed here for a few doobs, watching a Big ass Friendly dog aimlessly wandering around HIS shop. Even following its owner up the stairs at one point. Entertaining stuff when your mashed. Taking a slow walk back to the station from here in the glorious sunshine we were soon on the train bidding farewell to Haarlem till next time. Once back in Amsterdam we head to homegrown fantasy were I get some Genie of the Lamp or something. We have a final few spliffs and some vapo bags then bid farewell. Tonight is cantonas last night staying at the airport and he wants to get back and prepare for his move in the morning. After grabbing some minestroni soup and a bowl of carbonara from the Italian place right on the corner before you reach the rookies, I popped up to my room. Ended up watching the second half of the Croatia vs Austria game in my room smoking the wares of todays journey. At full time I set out to find Barney's lounge. Now I do like this place, its sleek and mellow at the same time and has a totally diferent vibe to the other Barneys. I buy more King Hassan ( for me, its the perfect hash.) @ 11 euros a g. I chill here for Quite some time, smoking from my now sizable stash. Feeling the need to strech my legs I set off back in the direction of the Liedseplein. I decide that I'm gonna go into the Rokery as it aint so packed tonight. I ask about a couple of Indicas as I've been going a wee bit haze crazy this trip. My nose leads me to choose 1g Jack Herer and 1g Kama sutra Bio. I buy a coke and take a seat. The D.J is playing some tunes I aint really felling but I stick around long enough to see two American Ladies hounded into buying Drinks by a waitress. They had bought weed and didn't want a drink, fair enough I think. Feeling like I didn't want to buy anything else from there, I went round the corner and had a final Brew at the Rookies and finished my King Hassan from Barneys. Up to the room just before midnight and treated myself to an Indica Double Whammy. Happy B'day me!

Cause bongs make me hack up a lung 99% of the time, and a spliffs far more social.

Are you home yet?

I'm gonna have to check out that record store. I like your taste in tunes. Sharon Jones is coming to a festival in a couple of weeks and I'm trying to talk my wife into going.

yes twitch just got home. like 20 mins ago. good to be back. although i must say i slightly disagree. with spliffs being far more social. i agree they are more social but thats only because you can bring a spliff anywhere. but i just end up having a bunch of people in my room, garage or back yard and we put in a bowl or match on one and pass it around until its cashed. somewhat the same with a vape bag really. just my 2 cents really.

once again great report twitch and it was great meeting you. hope to meet again. I'm already having a vape bag. hopefully can pick up a zip of some good weed this week.

I don't know if it is simply a matter of being more social but I seem to get higher when I smoke a joint.The bong hits you heavy at first but the high doesn't seem to last as long as if you were to smoke a joint.

Monday June 9th

Wake up fairly early and notice I already have a few txt's from some family members, and Cantona wishing me a happy b'day. Very nice start to the day. I get up and make myself respectable then its off to fill the hole in my stomache at brekkie. I listen to some Dub side of the Moon, smoke a spliff of Knetter then back for a shower. Whilst drying my considerably long hair I decide I'm definitly going to Artis today. I couldn't actually think of a better way to spend a sunny late morning/afternoon than being amused by animals. I fukin love animals me! So with my mind set I was off. First and foremost I needed to top up my stone sufficiently enough to last while I'm in the Zoo ( its a monday and no doubt the place will be full of children, don't wanna blaze up aroud the Bairns n that eh!) A stop at mellow yellow should do the trick. Once at mellow yellow I get some more silver haze, pay for it then walk up stairs leaving my ganj sitting on the counter, picking up my coke though.Lol. Thankfully for me just as I pulled out my skins, and before I had noticed I didn't have my weed the Tender came up stairs with my baggie and gave me it. Cheers mate, fuckin stoners eh. It was around 12ish by now and I thought about asking for Puffin, I bottled it in the end as I was already a wee bit Red Faced for the weed incident and I don't think I could have taken it had the Dude at the counter said "who"

. Instead I smoked my haze and split.( I was wearing a Red T-Shirt with the words 'SKUNK WARS' over the chest if you were there Puffin) towards the Amstel and Waterlooplien, past the Overkant Hortus, past the Hortus Botanicus, up on to Plantage Middenlaan and I was there. The sun, by now was beating down and I hadn't brought my Hat with me. I was to pay for this over the next few days. Once in the Zoo I became entranced, Spending hours wandering around the various enclosures. Probably spending far too much time at the Monkey enclosure to be honest but I think I saw everything. I used up all the remaining space on my camera in Artis getting some Fantastic pics.( I'll eventually post them too.) Having left the Zoo I was in need of a smoke, the first place I saw on the way back was the Overkant. The fact they had no seats and I had just spent a good few hours on my feet made the choice easy. I ambled on for a minute or two till I came to the Greenhouse Namaste( I think it was the Namaste) where I got 2g Trainwreck and chilled at a table outside in the Sun. Suitably Stoned and rested I made the plesantly lengthy walk back to the Rookies to dump my bag and stuff and change into my Hollad Top for the game tonight. I take a few minutes to Pre Roll a few splifs for my mate Tony who arrives later tonight just to help him catch up with me when we meet up. Fire off a few txt's to some people then off. Leaving the Rookies around 5pm I tuck into yet more Burger King. From here I make my way up to coffeeshop 137. I've never been here before and only found my self here by accident, but I'm glad I did. Clean, friendly, Good cheep menu and a great view. Most of the erbs were under 10euros with only the Stella Blue and Amnesia haze(i think) costing more. ALL the Hashes were under 10 I think. I smoke my stella blue @ 11 euros a gram and enjoy the taste alot. Quite a few people have been speaking dutch to me since I'm Decked in my Holland top, leaving them quite puzzled when they here the Scottish accent. Funny shit. From here its off to meet my mate Tony at the station, only I go into Centraal coffeeshop first, smoke some PH89 and end up missing him. A few txts later and I find out he's at his hotel. Good shit, we arrange to meet at Rockland and somehow I get there first! Well the prick in Rockland wont let me in without buying smoke. Fuck that. I wait outside till Tony arrives then We head of instead to Softland where the Guy there is more than happy to serve me jut a drink. Tony gets some tasty White Smurf. and we proceed to get wasted, so much so that we forget about our Plans to go meet up with Cantona and end up going to Popeyes. Here I get 1g Willie Nelson and 1g White shark and prepare to watch the Holland Game. Then I remember, Cantona. A txt or two later and hes on his way to meet us arriving just after kick off. We smoke up Big time, Watching the Dutch beat Italy. I roll up two FAT ASS reefers using up most of a 'cocktail bag I had gathered over my stay so far. After the game we make our way across to Hunters for a final few spliffs, I get Buddhas sister for 13euros a gram. It smelled amazing and tasted every bit as good as it looked.. However maybe I was already to high to notice the effects but was left a bit dissapointed. With Bleary, Red eyes we walked Tony over towards his hotel, made our plans to meet tomorrow and said goodnight. Cantona and I then set off on the long and winding walk down to the Rookies. Getting into my room I pass out halfway through a cocktail spliff of allsorts of bits and pieces.
Now thats a Perfect Birthday.
