I was thinking about Soundgarden the other day as well. Would be good during the day in the beer garden if the weather's good.

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?
The Yabba Dabba Doo team 👍 like that and a good choice of coffeeshop to meet at to get the excursion started 😁

Should be walking out of Centraal around 930am on the 17th and leaving around 8pm on the 21st.

4 nights and 5 days of ACD madness. I cannot wait!
Nice👍 will catch up with you at Siberia in the morning for the 1st smoke or 2 or this year's 420

More info on the Pinball competition coming shortly, this year's rules and the prize everyone will be playing for 👻😎

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.
I just looked at the Andersom menu, it looks like it's from the 00s in terms of strains and it's in Dutch. I'd go there just to enjoy the retro vibes :mrgreen:

I can now confirm that we now have official invitations to Het Ballonnetje, The Stud and The Empire in Haarlem. I assume that everyone who's been to one of our special invite sessions before won't want to miss any of these so I suggest that we select prime spots for these and then organise other events around them.

I'm getting excited now! :D :D :D

:D Excellent news and Exciting news that is @Lemming :thumbup: A Massive thanks to all the shop's for the invites again this year and for the new invite :clap: 8) :D Totally agree with not wanting to miss any of these special sessions and scheduling these in the week at good times and building other events around them. The Edibles course on the 19th at 2pm is set in place now and can't be changed now so Trad, AzLaker, Gapie, BatRadia, Ghost will not be around for a couple of hours on that day. Shaping up to be a Special 420 8) :mrgreen:

That's excellent news Lemming! :D Everyone should be town no later than the 19th. And folks start leaving the 22nd. Would it be possible to arrange the meeting days & times around 3-5 in the afternoon? That gives people a little flexibility when planning day trips. Plus, with an extra session planned, we might want to think about having one on 4/20. :mrgreen:
What does everyone else think?

Looks like most people will be around from 18th to 21st so I think we should try to slot in our special sessions in the afternoons of those days. 19th and 20th already have events on so only 18th and 21st are completely free. I'd quite like to do Haarlem on 18th. Would that work for those of you arriving that day? Maybe we could squeeze in something between the edibles thingy, for those doing that, and the boat. After 4/20 at 420 may be another opportunity too.

I like the idea of Haarlem on the 18th.
We could do the Stud after 420.. maybe the Balloon on the 21st.

Or do them all on 420? :D :D :D

Times and dates look good to me.
You could possibly start the session on the 19th a bit earlier so people aren't rushed to get to the boat for 8.00pm.

The Yabba Dabba Doo team like that and a good choice of coffeeshop to meet at to get the excursion started
Happy to be part of the Yabba Dabba Doo squad! Early Saturday afternoon sounds good to me.
For reference, when i went to Wormeveer, it took at least an hour and a half to get there and back to Centraal Station.

Really looking forward to the sessions, so thanks Lemming for organising and thanks to the coffeeshops for agreeing to put up with us!
Just noticed that the 420 countdown timer is up, makes everything feel very official!

Sounds like a plan!

19th I will go to Culture Boat in Utrecht in the morning, maybe joined by Jolly, but be back in plenty of time for The Balloon. If anyone fancies joining just shout.

Was gonna hit Haarlem on 21st in the morning, but afternoon sesh sounds just as good :mrgreen:

Also getting excited now....Roll on 420 8)

Better hold fire on planning for a bit. Lots of chatter in the back room. Should have the beginning of a plan soon...

Meanwhile, those arriving on 18th, what time will you be in town?

So far Stud is definitely set for after 4.20 at 420. The edibles event is also moved to the 20th before 4.20. We're considering Ballonnetje on afternoon of 19th, before the boat and Haarlem on 18th but those aren't set yet.
