Hello from old jersey c.i.

Thanks for this.

Hello every body from jersey channel islands.

Ok, me and my two youngest sons 25 and 27 are heading to Amsterdam on the 12 -14 august, it will be our first trip.
We don't get much gear over here that's very good, and while we have smoked rubbish hash for years, is there any advice that you guys can give us in the way of first time uses, what to get started on so's to speak.
Thought we should stick to sativa as most seem to start on this, but which one as we don't want to be in the recovery position for the duration of our visit, or at any time tbh.
My youngest and i have medical issues and need something that would help with pain relief, so any good advice will be sincerely well received with gratitude.
What coffeshops do you think we should visit, i have done a bit of reading on here and else where, my thoughts are Amnesia, Basjoe and Grey Area for starters.
Ha i say starters, prob will finish us.

PS sorry for the intro with questions.

Welcome GG, have a great trip. I'd add GreenPlace, AnyDay and Paradox to your list, just my faves.
Most of the budtenders in town are personable, so just explain what you're after and the should see you right. Good luck 8)

Welcome to the forum.

You have been posted on the August Whos In Town page.

You can see who else may be in town during your stay and any Toke & Talks that are planned.

Watch for Toke & Talks, I post them up to the last minute.
Or post one of your own. All I need is a date, time, and coffeeshop to post it.

By default I link your posting to your profile page here on ACD.

https://www.coffeeshopdirect.com/forum/membe ... le&u=68491

I can change it to a web link ( myspace, facebook, personal page )
or an email address if you want.

You can do a little practice shopping on the Coffeeshop Menus page.
Any with arrows are less than six months old.

First timers get my S G Collins recommendation
I think a read of this will maximize your efficiency once you get there.

How not to get hit by a bike and other stuff they forgot to tell you about Amsterdam.


Enjoy

Hello, taking your two sons to Amsterdam for a first trip, family values I can support. You are around my age, I find indicas work well for pain, tho they have a tendency to slow some down, the pain relief is enough of a lift to keep you moving.

Hello all

Thanks for the advice have added those coffeshops to the list.

And outdoor weed sounds like a very good idea and great way to start ty.

Thanks for that fly good read.

As for the indicas good for pain relief, yes I'm aware of that but I'm kinda knackered body wise and can't get around much, if i started with them i might not be able to move at all lol, :oops: so I'll start with some out door sativa strain and have me a little indica to follow, or try 50/50, I'll ask the budtender what he/she thinks. :wink:

All in all great advice here thanks very much. 8)
