I've two little missions planned if anyone is interested in joining let me know.

1. Sunday 19th: trip out to Culture Boat in Utrecht, opens at 11am, probably leave Central around 10am. Old ground for anyone who went last year and kinda clashes with the edibles class but want to visit another place from my boat/barge list after Decembers Almere jaunt to De Blowboot, then it will just leave Pax de Boot in Breda on my list :mrgreen:

2. Tuesday 21st: Popping out to Haarlem to grab Nols book in Willie Wortels and give Empire a visit too, leave from Central around 9am

Any other people with missions planned? De Kade is being renovated, want to get down to check it out. They hold the regular vape seshes there. Lets see if they have one that weekend!

I may be up for the Culture Boat.

De Kade is always in my plans. Should be there multiple times during the week.

Was also thinking of popping down to Den Haag one day. Dizzy Duck and Cremers.

Sweet, any other shops in Utrecht you think are worth visiting?

Am sure we could get a few for De Kade as its always popular with ACDers.

Den Haag is a good spot. Liked Dizzy Duck and Greenhouse Secret Farmers. Didnt get the hype about Cremers but everyone seems to rate it, maybe I need another visit!

I've only been to Culture Boat in Utrecht. I think the others we went to or by in the centre were buy 'n' fly? I may do a little research to see where lets you sit in.

My usual routine for De Kade is to be first in at Club Media around 8/9am. A few joints then the metro to Zuid and a short walk to De Kade. @AZLaker was with me last year. Good times. :D

Greenhouse is a good shout in Den Haag. Cremers for me has a very nice and huge menu thats reasonably priced and I love their sit in cafe/bar next door. Like a more upmarket Bulldog. Which is funny as I just seen a pic of when it was a Bulldog in the 80s. Potential date of 18th in the morning for the trip.

I was going to ask whether people fancy some day trips. Igraine and I will be going up to Leeuwarden and probably Groningen on the 22nd. Anyone welcome to join us for a daytrip or longer if you wish. I see talk of Zaandam, which sounds interesting. I've never been there. We went to The Hague (and Delft) in 2019 (see here) which was fun so up for a return there if people fancy it. Anywhere else?

Got a couple of other specials that I'm hoping to organise when I get a spare minute. Stay tuned...

Groningen has been on my list for awhile. I may come along. :D

I believe tomorrow is 7 weeks until the fun begins :D

I would like to propose an afternoon at 1eHulp, a short waddle to the Doghouse and onto Soundgarden for beer. Maybe the 21st?
If I don't see you no more in this world, I'll meet you on the next one.

Hello all.

Im staying in Soest until the morning of the 19th then heading to Amsterdam. On Saturday the 18th Queen Charilotta and I are going to the Hague to go to Madurodam at 1, MC Escher at 2, then head toward Cremers at about 345 to get some Donut Joints and have a lil 420 thing if anyone would like to join.
Someone asked me to describe a perfect date. I said April 25th: it's not too cold and not too hot.

Last time I was in Utrecht went to a place with a games room downstairs but the name escapes me, also went to an FC Utrecht match. Nice city. You a fan of down south? DNA coffeeshop is beside De Kade too, can have some interesting things, but only have standing room to roll a joint. I like that area in general, quite relaxed.

I think most people just tend to pass through Zaandam on the way to to Zaanse Schans! I still remember the serious Dutch guy at the windmill museum asking me if I wanted the information leaflet in Irish or English, I laughed and he gave me the one in Irish, couldn't believe they had one in Irish, very niche. Even if Zaanse Schans is a bit of a tourist trap I like the place.

Definitely up for hitting 1eHulp at some point, one of the better shops for chilling and plenty of space for an ACD crew.

Escher museum was really worth the visit, hope you enjoy it!

Possibly Andersom in Utrecht? It was a buy 'n' fly last year. :?

I'd quite like to go to a dutch football game at some point. I forgot to mention DNA. I usually pop in on my way to De Kade. Guys in DNA had some good banter at New Year. Area is very beautiful and quiet.The July have some very nice apartment style rooms across from the Olympic Stadium. Can get good deals on rooms quite often and right on the metro line.

The ACD Yabba dabba doo team, Ghost, BatRadia, Steve Sec and myself are planning a quick visit to CS Smokery in Wormerveer and CS Headlines and CS The Squad in Zandaam - to have a look at the legal project offerings.
Zandaam is approx 15 minutes by train from Central.
Can I propose a meet up @ CS Siberie between 1 and 2pm on Sat 18th for all ACD crew members interested?
