Andys Birthday+1-day-trip

Post by sh@dy »

On saturday we went to Adam for Andys birthday. We arrived at noon and started shopping a bit (at least I found some t-shirts....). After this we went to some shops and went to Andys BBQ in Saphartipark.

nice meeting up with andy and meeting some of his friends. To be honest I dont remember a SINGLE NAME of your friends Andy, but thats me not being able to remember any of those details too easy. Please greet them from me, every single one of them was very friendly, funny bunch to have a smoke with, I would do it again and again!
had a few burgers (of course with lots of cheese, since we were celebrating with cheese-heads from the island.....well ;) ), some joints and lots of laughter.
qapie(if anyone of you is in town, meet him, he is a great person, friendly and lively!) then took us to coffeeshop Yo-yo. we had a couple of spliffs with him while walking to Yoyo and then to Mellow Yellow/Little.

Now, lets get to the buds/hash we bought:
Dampkring
Dealers as friendly as ever! The menu as big as ever, they quality as high as always. What should I say about this shop? its great!
Super Silver Haze 10,50€ - not as great in taste as the one from MY, still sweet and smooth, a high that keeps giving and giving....
Mexican Haze 13€ - has this strong fresh spicy smell and taste, but not as intensive as it used to be, uplifting clear high, just love this strain!
Lavender 8,50€ - this has gone down in taste, the quality is super, but its not as strong in taste as it used to be, still a favourite!
Hash Heaven - damn, we should have taken more of this. tried it yesterday after having smoked some hazes before, and it still knocked us out immidiately! heavy indica, spicy taste, very smooth in the throat, very good value for the price.
Salad Sativa 5,5€ for this? everyone who has low-budget should go there and get some of the salad! taste is mixed, effect is a strong up-high.
Mako Haze lovely haze, very spicy, fresh in taste, strong up-high!

Mellow Yellow/Noon
The chinese guy in Noon isnt the friendliest one. At mellow yellow the "chinese" guy (sorry, no offense here, he just looks a bit chinese to me) was very friendly!
Blueberry Haze 10€ - hasnt changed a bit! its still one of the strongest and tastiest hazes in town for me, fruity heavy taste and a strong high, no beginners weed!
S5 Haze 13€ - as great as last time. a true haze, no strawberry/blueberry/whatever taste on this, just the pure haze-taste and one of the strongst highs in town for me
LA Confidential 14€ - this is a real interesting thing. it looks almost as perfect cured as the one milehigh used to have, the smell is sweet, the effect is one of the clearest Indica-effects I ever had, no headband, but it will make you fall asleep....the taste seems to be very personal, I liked it very much, my girl didnt like it because she said it tastes like eau de toilete :D
Strawberry Haze 12€ - smells like strawberry, the taste is very fresh and light, the effect is a clear high that keeps giving and giving
Diesel 12€ - not as strong in taste as a Diesel should be, but ok
Amnesia Haze 8€ - best price in town! get it, its a well cured haze :)

Yo-Yo
qapie brought us here, we wouldnt have find it ourselfes, or at least we would have searched a long time. when you enter the door, you feel like being in someone elses living-room....at the end of the shop there is the counter where you can buy weed from a nice, relaxed and friendly older lady. The prices are ok, and she will happily show you whatever you want to see.
Haze 5,50€ - Outdoor Haze, I love it! Taste is hazy, with the outdoor-taste, you have to try!
Skuff 7€ - now this really looks interesting, it definitely is a nederhash, very very very soft, it definitely is made out of some outdoor-stuff, you can smell that immidiately. 7€ for this quality...really guys, you have to visit this shop, its awesome! (thx to Twich for discovering this gem!)

Little
Dealer is friendly, but there is one thing that got me bad mooded here. Friend of ours went in, bought some "Dragon Haze". We had a smell on it, and this was no haze, it was a usual Cheese-strain...but ok, it still looks great.
Cheese aka. Dragon Haze 8€ very nice! a nice cheese for this price, strong in smell and taste, nice strong stone.
Little Special 7,5€ a nice morrocan hash. not as soft as other quality hash in town, still easy to mix, fresh taste, nice stone.
Thai Buddah Sticks 5g=16€ the price being sad, this is some nice weed. if you like imported/outdoor weed, you will love this. sweet/spicy in taste, strong up-high and easy to mix into a joint :)

Katsu
I didnt go here, when our friends went there we were at Andys birthday BBQ, but I saw the items they bought.
Morrocan Ice Hash very very soft, looks good quality, smells and tastes spicy but very light, strong stone
Lavender not as strong in smell as the one from Dampkring, a bit more sticky

Rokerij
I dont like the Rokerijs, its the darkness in those shops I dont like...the dealer was ok, he didnt let me take a picture, but he was friendly and showed everything to us, the people working there are friendly, not the best service in the world, but friendly :)
Kush Diesel 11,50€ now this really is an interesting bud. the taste isnt as intensive as a Diesel should be, but it has that Kush-scent in it, which makes it something special. in the effect its the other way round, you will have the strong kush-indica effect and only a scent of the awakening diesel-strain :)
Laughing Buddah looks ands tastes well cured, very nice high, not my type of taste, but quality

Homegrown Fantasy
Hah! I finally saw the toilet. its really funny!
The dealers are friendly as always, I never liked the decor of this shop much, but the atmosphere is always great here, no unfriendly staff, good weed and not as crowded as many other good shops.
Cheese 12,50€ Bought this for Andy as his birthday-present, really happy it was his favourite, because I wasnt sure if it was this one or the one from a 2nd shop....quite strong shit, I know why you like it Soulrider :D
Kush x Haze very strong in smell, nice fresh taste....dont remember the effect to be honest.
Silver Pearl a nice strain, tastes sweet with a hint of something else I cant describe. its not too strong in effect, but definitely nice!

Grey Area
Equatorial Sativa 16,50€ we tested this on Andys birthday BBQ, but to be honest, I dont remember that much because we were about to leave when I rolled this, so I only took 2 puffs and gave it to the "Andy-crowd" :D will have to test it.....looks nice!

Fantastic read! Hey, noticed that HGF completely changed their pricing. They were all 10e bags, now they sell by the gram. Thanks for sharing and looking forward to your report on the unsmoked purchases.

wicked, should make it easier. Always was a bit sceptical about buying 0.7. You get a spliff and .2 left over. What you do with the .2?

Noticed they've got Lowrder on the menu, anyone tried it?

Nice report, after looking at the menus I'm intrigued about the 'Sleaze' from MY and 'The Wobbler' from Grey Area, Anyone tried either or know anything of them? Hopefully they're still around in a couple of weeks!

Just want to totally agree about Yo Yo's Haze!

Tastes outdoorsy and hazey. I would not call it strong but it is by no means weak, with a beautiful interesting thoughtful high. Very happy.

Also MY's Amnesia was excellent at €8/g.

Yeah I was surprised to see it, must be trying to sell it in the seed shop ;)

I'm almost tempted cos I've heard such poor smoke reports about it lol

Also Homegrown have clearly just changed their pricing structure, used to be €10 bags with varying weights, now its priced per gram.

hello guys and nice report sh@dy :)
was a nice day mate!

and here is my version of this day ;)

at first we went all together to rent bikes...that was the plan ;) ... 2 of 8 got bikes :)

that was the first time the group was devided into groups :)...first group were sh@dy + girl, second group were three friends, my brother my girl and me

first decision was to get something to eat...
we were at leidseplein this moment so...no problem :)

after that we get an "after-meal" spliff at dolphins rolled with their white dolphin

again and again...i like this weed! great taste and nice uplifting high as every time

we arranged with sh@dy that he fetch us up at homegrown fantasy
so let´s go mates...now we´re going to get crazy :D

after a short walk through the city and a lot of passed by shops (i mention this because it was my brothers first time in the city and his eyes were shining like stars...he just wanted to go in every single shop :D) we arrived at hgf

almost everybody bought some of their gear...i´ll try to remember every strain:

og kush haze <-- very sticky and strong smelling weed, with a really nice after taste

silver pearl <-- the most stinky one...tastes almost like hasj through a bong

sour diesel <--great diesel with a strong taste...my fav

lowryder
snow white

cannot remember the last two ones...sorry ;)

and a friend bought the dutch ice...great ice-o-later really stoned!


after an hour or so sh@dy + girl arrived and picked up 6 finished people to go to dampkring

my brother, girl and me didn´t want to go to dampkring so we wait at abraxas because we want to walk through the RLD to show it my brother...smoked a ww pre rolled there...don´t know how it was
what i can remember is that i drank a sour chocomel there...uuuugh really disgusting

but it was no problem to get another one (first gulp was strange ;) )
group picked us up there...without sh@dy and girl...they wanted to go to andy and i want to meet them later so...

after a long trip, lots of windows and another partition of our group
my brother, girlfriend and me arrived at katsu
their i bought lavender and marrocan ice, my brother some super jamaican

smoked two really fat ones, one lavender one jam and had a nice little chat with a local when sh@dy called me
so...almost unable to walk i wanted to go to meet andy because it was late and i want to see him finally
but my brother...he wanted to go to mellow yellow and there was no way to change his mind...stupid first timer ;)
as i wrote in some other threads he walked away without mobile phone and map and my girl and me went to saphratipark

there we met many people and to all:

sorry mates...don´t wanted to be disrespectful...but i was way too stoned
all of you seemed to be real nice, gapie is a great guy...thanks for showing yo-yo ;)

sh@dy asked me if i could understand andy....yes of course but i was unable to speak english at this moment :D

although it was a great time...

visited yoyo and rokerij before we drove home and i don´t want to write anymore at the moment ;)

so thanks for the nice day...looking forward to see you again! have a nice time mates
