extremepain"]Definitely excellent photojournalism. (Extremepain i agree with you, i was thinking along them said lines.)
A hell of a report Twichaldiho
I like how you put your "diary report" together including superb Photo's of the Herb along with the name's, price's and location's of each purchase.
You now got everybody's nose wide open.
Still thankyou for the dedication, and for puting in the time and effort in bringing us all a fantastic & well informed Amsterdamge Coffeeshop report.
It will be interesting to hear in the following chapters what and what buddy's got liberated onto uk soils.
Keep it pimpin Jack.

None. Not a gram. Didn't even post any this time. I knew I had enough good shit back here not to be to depressed about coming home.
I miss the canals more than the weed at this point.

, it's good not to be greedy, if the camp is already full of liberated "Buddy's" then there's no need to carry prisoners. Pimpin

Day four
Friday 31st January
I wake up sometime after 9AM. Look out the window and for the fourth day on the trot there’s no rain. Perfect. I finish the Kush number from last night, watch some BBC news then jump in the shower. Planned Meet with JollyLittleHun today.
Once showered I listen to Some skattalites on the Laptop. Munch some cookies and finish off the last of the African weed.. Head off to the Dampkring for breckie around 11AM. I buy 3g of King Hassan
for the Bargain price of €7:50 a gram. Nice. Also a morning pick me up in the form of Mexican haze at €13.
I munched up and blazed for about an hour. Shot these
Stayed Long enough to see a young girl have a whitey.
I’m sitting on the top floor, almost ready to go, when I look up and a girl is rushing down the stairs. She’s quickly followed by all her friends bar 2. They just kept on tokin, like “ Fuck it . “ I had a chuckle to my self ( not at the whitey, at the friends who didn’t seem to care.) then left. I got some more €s from the cash machine and took a couple of photos.
Around 1:15PM I made my way to GreenPlace . This time I bought 1g of Lemon Skunk for €12 and 1g of Master Martian for €13.
I entered the smoking room and quickly scanned for JollyLittleHun. I sat right at the door and stitched up a quick spliff while watching, for the third time, the Man U vs. Westbrom game . I sat there till 2:25PM and smoked three spliffs. Drank a coke and heard only English Accents. No Scottish. (If you were there JollyLittlHun, I apologise for not recognising you 
) . Did see a Helena Bonham Carter look-alike though.. After leaving, I took this.
Very, Very stoned I took a long, slow walk down past here.
( notice the construction has moved on a block )
Onwards, pausing to take this
And on Through Rembradsplien , Past Barney’s Lounge and on Into Mellow Yellow. Didn’t bother looking at the menu, just asked for a g of Jack Herer Haze again.
I Was as impressed with this bit as I was with the last. It wasn’t Phat bud this time, more small nuggs . But equally as tasty. It got real busy, then real quiet during my couple of spliffs. Upon leaving I took this.
I ate in a little Place called Bella Regina. Its at the top of Vijelstraat(sp). Italian. I got some Soup and a Spag’ Bol’. It was a decent enough munch, cost about €17 I think, including my coke. Gave a €20 as I have been Accustomed to rounding up. From here I ambled on back to the room. Took these Photo’s en rout.
When I got back I typed up this and smoked a few spliffs. One King Hassan, mixed with Tobacco and one pure Cannaloupe x MartianMeanGreen.
I feel very knackered again today. I think all these strains are taking there toll on me. Tonight will be a quiet one I think. I’ve finished the majority of my stash now anyhow. I’ve got A few grams of Cannaloupe x MMG and some King Hassan. That’s it.
Well, a quiet one It wasn’t. I ended up getting a txt from a friend reminding me to get these.
(Exact strains too, no Leeway for me when choosing strains
)
Which, in turn, reminded me to go back to the Grey Area!
When I got there it was again, empty. January IS the best time to visit. This time there’s an addition to the menu ( or mabey I was given a different menu last time
), Equatorial Haze.
I’m Intrigued. I tell John just that, he pulls out the tub and instantly I know I’ve never seen anything like this before. I didn’t have my camera, so no luscious photos. It was expensive, and on appearance you would think twice. I didn’t. I got a gram for €16:50 (ouch!) Sooo glad I did. It was almost all calyxes, small, plump THC ridden calyxes. Not buds but loose calyxes! Even in the tub that John had, piles of calyxes. There was some very thin stalk in there which showed very sparse calyx formation. That’s the reason I bought it. It’s obvious that it is never going to be a big yielding plant, probably a bitch to grow too. But someone has. A small amount has made it here, I’ll be damned if I don’t try it . I did take this with my Phone of the Shit in the bag.
But it’s a rubbish picture
.
I also bought a gram of Cheesel. No picture of that though.
I smoked the whole gram of the Sativa, pure. Instant piney, hazy taste. It never eases either. Its one of those weeds that tastes exactly like it smells. Catches the throat a bit, nothing to worry about though. The clearest high I’ve ever experienced. No question. At first I didn’t know I was High. Then I knew!
I tried to roll the Cheesel up as soon as I’d finished the spliff but I couldn’t focus. One minute I’m grinding the weed, the next I’m staring at the ashtray . Thinking of absolutely nothing. Of course, I’m finding this hilarious, giggling at myself in an empty shop .
Eventually, at the second time of asking I stitch together an acceptable spliff and am equally as impressed with the flavour. Its all there. Cheesy, motor oil!
Still, I couldn’t drag my ass out the clouds. I new If I left there I would wander, in the freezing cold for ages. Fuck that
. I bought a gram of L.A. Con, received a free coke. The L.A Con had no smell. Nothing. It Mellowed me out again but I wouldn’t pay €14 for it again.
From there I made a beeline for a cone of fries. Fricken Munchies! I took a brisk walk strait to the Bluebird. I plan on buying Hash but instead get a €10 bag of N.Y Diesel( its on special, think it was a gram and a half.) and a €12:50 bag of Bubba Kush (1.6g). Here’s a pic of the remainders from when I got back to the hotel.
Here, I drank two brews and smoke a pure spliff of both. I feel the value of the NY Diesel was worth the walk in the cold alone . It’s Classic diesel. The jury is still out on the Bubba Kush. Nothing about it stood out. I munched one of the Big ass cookies that they have on the Bar also. Nice it was!
Braving the cold once more I took the straightest road towards the direction of my hotel and got sidetracked by the Eye!
€10 out of pocket and I have a bag of O.G Kush x Haze in my hand.
I am, of course talking about HomeGrown Fantasy. I order a Brew, and am given some Nancy boy coffee with foam an allsorts ! I’m way to stoned to care so instead I found out if you put enough sugar in a coffee it taste alright! I only smoked that weed here. Wasn’t all that impressed to tell you the truth. With it getting quite late, I felt one more stop then home.
Last stop was a pretty packed Amnesia where I bought 1g Honey Bee for €13( I think) and another cup of tea. The honey bee, although tasting fine, didn’t stand out in anyway so I rolled up a Big Reefer of Cannaloupe x MMG and started to turn heads
I ate a slice of delicious cake, had another brew and that was me.
Around 11:30ish PM I entered my hotel room door for the last time.
Typed this, arranged my luggage and shit for the flight tomorrow and finished almost all my stash, all bar two spliffs. One big number, containing all the last small scraps of Hash and buds. The other a King Hassan I intend to finish at the Airport tomorrow.
