Nice page

It'd be nice to hear something of this CS and others on this side of Central.

My friend lives close to this coffee shop and we smoke weed from here a lot. It's not quite the quality of wortel's but its a good deal cheaper and still great smoke. I believe they have had some great edelweiss and jack herer.

stopped in for a joint on my last trip.. was pretty cool, weed was not bad at all.

i could sorta make out what you were writing in the description of the coffeshop, but im sure if it was in english it would serve your shop some better justice.. as not everyone can read what you wrote.

glad for you to have joined the forums!! hopefully its not too long before im back in haarlem

cheers

Sorry, I added where Babel gave up, but a few words are left in Dutch...

great shop nice hash selection Big dog lol... would def go back very nice change from amsterdam.

been there 2 weeks ago and it was closed...

there where papers in the windows...and a lot of text...dutch text
sorry but can´t read it

... that sounds like there was a "razzia" by the police... maybe they found a person under 18 years in the shop or they found more than 500g in stock of the shop.
Same was in Maastricht 2 years ago with the Kosbor and the Mississippi Shop. Mississippi was closed by the goverment for 6 months...

I hope that´s not true but I read in another threat that haarlem´s shops was raided by the police...

edit
yes it´s true I found it on the web there were two minors in the shop... and the goverment closed it...

Yep Birdy is closed until September, Regine is closed until July. The mayor of Haarlem is a total dick who hates coffeeshops and needs his ass kicked in a courtroom or voted out as mayor. Nol and some of the other coffeeshop owners are all over this, hope they win.

Regine has been closed for ages pretty sure for good, do you mean Theehuis?

Edit: Just noticed Nol wrote that about Regine on Channels, strange seeing that they've been closed for ages.

Super place! they do discount also .

Based on what I just read above your post its going to be a while before anyone can take advantage of any discounts!

I was surprised as well, Boner. Theehuis is open although there was a minor on the premises also. The story is she was pushed into the coffeeshop during the raid, maybe that's what got them out of staying closed?

...you can imagine her parents saying ..'and someone thrust a marijuana cigarette in her mouth at exactly the same moment that she was thrust into the open doorway by the panicking crowd, straight up your honour, and she didnt inhale one bit, no, that smoke you saw was coming from that evil pusher man with one eye and a hook hand...'
