Re: Club Media

Very jealous. A couple of weeks ago the Champagne Haze was excellent as ever, but the Hindu Kush was not. My mate was warned it was a bit fresh and could do with being left out overnight, personally I would have left it at that, and the leafy look of it, but he bought a g (€11) anyway and even after...

Re: More trouble for Coffeeshops in "The Wallen"

What I wonder is when the tipping point will be reached? In ~20 years since the licences were issued the number of coffeeshops in Amsterdam has more than halved and every year it seems we lose more and more without any new ones opening. The number is pretty startling. How much longer can that carry ...

Re: Voyagers

Personally, random violence is about as far away from fun as can be at any time, let alone in Amsterdam. Having said that I'm sure CS owners have plenty of shit to deal with, wasn't there and all that. Anyway, is there any chance this latest purile nark (Hank & USBL) could be taken out of the re...

Re: Paypal a scam?

They must have provided a reason, most likely that they suspect the account of illegal activity. I've known this happen to other sites' donation accounts. If he provides evidence of its perfectly legal use... ie links to this website, server bills, testimony from donators etc it should be possible t...

Re: E cigs

As I understand it, there was an attempt to ban the sale of them in Holland but it failed a legal challenge. The Dutch gov do have concerns about them, rightly so as it happens due to the lack of regulation and proper research to back up claims made about them by proponents, but as far as I know the...

Re: Closures imminent

Indeed, am quite chilled really, was just pointing out that it is a bit redundant to explain the schools thing (which is not the same as the weedpass) to members here as we've known about it for ages and have existing threads about it. Totally get your intention though and didn't mean to be unwelcom...

Re: Closures imminent

Not to be rude, and for sure the new closures and restrictions are stupid and a real shame, but you should know this really isn't news to anyone here, its an ongoing situation everyone has been very aware of for some time. You could have looked for the threads about it like this one; https://www.cof...

Re: Paradox

Another one here in the pro-Paradox camp, lovely place and never had anything other than perfectly decent service, including from the lady who works there. It has a pretty grown up vibe and I can imagine certain sorts of behaviour aren't particularly suffered here, but its a shop I always make a poi...

Re: ShortStay-Amsterdam... Has anyone stayed with them?

Yeah sorry I know the 2 are different, was just using them as an example of how things work with another booking site that are quite reputable, should have been clearer.

Re: Anywhere selling nice Chocolope

Not quite as in vogue a strain as it was a year or two ago, but the Greenhouse had it recently (Namaste or the Pjip branch are nicer places to spend time than the RLD one IMO). No idea what its like there though (other than pricey), have to say it's one of my least favourite strains of all time, jus...

Re: ShortStay-Amsterdam... Has anyone stayed with them?

Problem with that trip advisor comment, aside from the guy obviously being a douche (I mean why not even look at the alternative they offered, especially if not doing so meant wandering the streets at night with kids in tow - could still have refused it if not suitable) is that from the sound of it ...

Yay, unnecessary aggressive posting in yet another thread, just what everyone wants to read. Some chilling the fuck out would be welcome and much more pleasant for everyone imo.

Who said it has anything to do with what you said? . Well you did quote him, perhaps that's what made him think it did? :D I'd also like to know how anyone could be so specific about the type of flavouring. Wouldn't surprise me at this shop but inclination to believe such things is not in itself fa...

Re: Posting weed to UK from 'Dam

Page 24 Poster: mattstar Arrested and charged???? Your thoughts? I think that people hardly need to be informed that cannabis is illegal still in the UK. Anyone who chooses to post themselves a bit of weed from Amsterdam knows full well that there is a small degree of risk attached, as there is in ...
