I'm off...

Does exactly what it says on the tin. Some of the nonsense contained herein may be very loosely related to The Sisters of Mercy, but I wouldn't bet your PayPal account on it. In keeping with the internet's general theme nothing written here should be taken as Gospel: over three quarters of it is utter gibberish, and most of the forum's denizens haven't spoken to another human being face-to-face for decades. Don't worry your pretty little heads about it. Above all else, remember this: You don't have to stay forever. I will understand.

Please note the typo here from amsterdam boy. The last two words were meant to read "a/c anal".

I reckon they'll definitely be stopping and searching you on the way back in. :wink:

Nice one Sir. If you read this in time, my recommendations, assuming you're off to have a smoke, are

De Kuil, De Dampkring, and Dolphins. You can find them on the Amsterdam Coffeeshop Directory website. I buy from Dampkring, loiter there for a while, then shove loads in the Volcano vapouriser in De Kuil. After that, the RLD is strictly a window-shopping experience. :lol:

No point wishing you a fine time, it's impossible NOT to have one in that fair city.

Hmmm, you've planted a rapidly germinating seed, Mr Fiend. :notworthy:
There is increasing evidence to suggest that Chris may have been being sarcastic.

I'm back now. Didn't fall into any canals (or a/c anals :lol:) Nor did I get stopped by customs on the way back (which is probably for the best :innocent:)

Had a day out to Den Haag to look at an Escher exhibition. Did a bit of shopping at Waterlooplein market. Found a decent coffee shop just off the Leidseplein called "Rokerij". Didn't do much else other than smoke, eat and drink. :lol:

A good relaxing holiday ;D

Hope you had a good time.. when i went, the gang wouldn't let me go to the museum of torture.

now you're back, can you make me a 'ruefully shaking head' emoticon for msn?

ps this has nothing to do with, and is not a conment on, your holiday. i just need to use one, often.

Nice one! I just came back from the Dam recently too and I'm missing it badly. Christ I LOVE that city. Did much the same things as yourself, plus a few others :twisted: :innocent: Sounds like you did more of the cultural stuff that I've been trying to convince my family that I did too, instead of the seedy pursuits I actually went for...Got any photos of museums etc that I can borrow? hehe

Sod it, I'm going back for Christmas. Flights from Leeds/Bradford for £1 on Dec 23rd :notworthy:
