Some pictures.

Post by Boner »

These are just a couple I took using my phone, I'll sort some more out in the near future and add them to this post.

After landing on the sunday afternoon we headed straight to the Nes cafe where I purchased 3.1 grams of NYCD for €25 and a couple of beers (yes I signed the book, so did the mrs)

Image

I think we went back to the hotel for a shower before heading out for something to eat, we then went to 420 where I picked up a 5 gram bud of white widow for €27.

Image

...more to come...



Edit: I dont know if this is where ate the first night but we had a amazing italian at a place called Pe Pe's down Westerstraat for not a lot of money.

Calzone Pizza (folded pizza) well tasty as well, stuffed full of mushrooms, ham, cheese, onions, artichokes (which I've never eaten before) and pepperoni, mmmmmmmmm!

but you've other sucsesses... :lol: and those customs dudes got some of those 100th of a gram scales too ... nice :wink:

I had a folded pizza in Spain at Easter... I didn't realize it was a folded pizza when I ordered, I just ordered the one with most toppings without reading too much else... I was bloody nice though.

Ouch, the customs boys will be having a nice toke, hope they choke on it!

This is why you stick it up your ass or just don't bother imo. Too many variables.

Boner: Is it only a letter of confiscation or was there a fine/caution imposed?

I've always bought a few grams back with me under the belief that if I do get stopped they will simply confiscate it and send me on my way. Ignorance is bliss. :lol:

Boner, what can I say?

Man, 22g (or there abouts) of the good stuff. Still, must have been a laugh getting the letter.

Those pictures look impressive for a phone camera, I'm on the lookout for one at the moment.

Would you mind telling me what make/model your phone is?

Is there any follow up 2 the letter. By which i mean were there charges? 20 plus grams getting confiscated is a big enough kick in the balls as it is.

Peace

Thats it, I'm allowed to phone them and ask for my goods back but I dont think I'll bother :wink:

Here's the last of the decent pics I took using the phone, I'll sort the ones we took using the camera later.


Everytime we go to Amsterdam the mrs likes having a look in the christmas shop and everytime I take a picture:

I never tyre of seeing bikes in weird and wonderful places/positions:

Image

I think I discovered a ancient Dutch game when walking around Amsterdam, a hoopla type of game:

Image

Nice to see that my noteriety has got over to The Netherlands as well:

Image

I thought I'd go all arty during a session in 420:

Edit: Just in case you didn't realise if you click on the picture it becomes larger.

Some good pics there Boner, and the quality certainly beats my Nokia 6600!!

I love the buds you get in De Kuil also, the dealers tends to break bits off until you have a whole bud matching the weight asked for - great service!
