Ghost.
Save a ticket for Gapie, if he wants to come on the boat ride I'll cover.

Hey @Trad I have put a ticket by for @Gapie and don't mind going half with you if he does want to be an ACD Pirate with us if not we can hopefully get someone during the week to commit

Count me in too. More than happy to help cover the cost of Gapie's ticket.

Alright, a couple more folks I haven't met. Looking forward to finally meet you guys. I'm a dog lover, so I'm definitely good for a couple of puppies on board. They can be our 2nd mates.

Look forward to meeting you.

Excellent news Guys, 2 seats reserved good to have you on board the ACD boat session look forward to meeting you and your dogs

Count me in @Ghost to help cover the cost of our 2 friends.

Thanks @AzLaker

On a sour note my Venty packed up last night

Why not ask S&B for a Mighty as the replacement? I am happy to contribute as required for extra boat tickets etc.

Might not be a bad shout that

The ACD Boat Session now consists of

@AzLaker
@JollylittleHun
@Kushola
@Trad
@SammySarah
@Lemming
@Igraine

Excellent! Last saw you guys with just one dog on James' cabin cruiser in 2019. Be great to see you again.
What dates you in town?

19 20 21

[Lemming]

Schedule is taking shape.

Do those of you who will be there want to put a time on Bushdocter on Thursday17th?

Do we want to name a meeting point for the Utrecht excursion? Maybe not Siberië - it's a great place but we seem to be going there every day!

On Friday 18th, if it's a nice day, I'm imagining Whatsapp messages from those in Zandvoort reporting how things are. The rest of us could catch a train and join you out there, maybe continuing to Haarlem and/or Zaandam. We could then move De Kade to Tuesday 22nd.
On the other hand, if the weather isn't great on the Thursday and you decide not to go to Zandvoort, we could do an alternative plan including De Kade, maybe some of Chapiteau, Catch 33, 7th Heaven, ex-Baba Plug, Funny People at NDSM or whatever. In that case obviously we'd hope for a better day on Tuesday 22nd so we can do Zandvoort then.

[AzLaker]

Right now, I like how the schedule is looking. Really don’t think we should change anything at the moment, unless like you said, "if the weather isn't great," we need to change plans. I do believe we'll have some good sunny weather, with maybe a sprinkle or two. What I would recommend for the folks who are new this year and don’t have WhatsApp, sigh up. That’s how we communicate with each other while we’re in town. Let's people know where we're at, where we're going, or what the heck's going on while in town. Lemming can give you more details on how to sign up to the 420 gang.

Sorry, we are doing breakfast on the 18th, before going to a coffeeshop & then heading out to Zandvoort. Time and place for breakfast TBD on the 17th.

@BatRadia @Kimble shall we put a time of 3pm'ish' on this at the Bushdoctor 0r 3.30pm or even 4pm that should give me enough time to get checked in and make a couple of pic ups before the meet.

Meeting place before the Utrecht excursion, what about Het Gelderse, PrixD'ami or Green Place 2 all are close to the station

Agree with the weather situ for Zandvoort etc and being flexible with those dates

Agree the schedule is looking 'DAM' good for us in the 'DAM' I also am a believer that we are going to get some cracking weather this year while we are in town 1 in every 3 Also agree that anyone not in the ACD 420 What's App group to get @Lemming and he will add you to it. It is the only way to keep a track of what is happening as plans can change some times last minute

But overall it is looking GOOD

@Ghost @Kimble, sounds good to me, I should be free from 2pm. So Kimble, we could meet up then, if that works for you and meet Ghost once he's free?

Maybe go with 4pm for Bushdoctor?

Het Gelderse was going to be my shout for Utrecht meet up.

I will be in Siberie before it though if anyone wants to meet up there and maybe take a casual stroll to solo before turning back to Het Gelderse if that's the meet up.

[Kimble]

On Thursday, April 17th, we will start a dabbing session at 14:30h, which can be added to the calendar. The plan is to try several varieties of LiveRosin. I bring some dabbing equipment (and Rosin) with me.

We are hoping for good weather, so we want to do this on an outdoor terrace. We meet at the BushDoctor in the hope that some of the tables outside are free. If it's all taken, we'll move on from there, as there are plenty of good coffeeshops nearby.
