Good evening.

Had a fantastic time over 420 with the ACD crew. Will try to get a little trip report done. Loved reading everyones so far.

Me and the Mrs managed to get a couple of tickets for The Strokes at The Ziggo dome on the 11th October and have booked up for a long weekend.

Friday to Sunday afternoon we will be staying in a beautiful little apartment on a canal in the centre of Delft. There are murmurings of booking a make your own tile at the Royal Delft Museum and a gander of the Vermeer Museum. Maybe a visit to Den Haag and Cremers thrown in for good measure.

Sunday afternoon we will make our way to Amsterdam for The Strokes and stay the night. No real solid plans for Sunday and Monday but Siberie, Club Media and maybe a couple other coffeeshops will be visited.

Only 142 days to go. :D

Thank you. We will definitely enjoy.

Booked the car rental and the make your own tile event in delft today.

Was planning to see The Young Analogues but decided against it. Not really the era of the Beatles I like as much.

Only 53 days to go i think.

Go anyway. It's the Beatles innit. I prefer their later stuff as well but I've hand on heart never seen any Beatles tribute act that wasn't a fantastic night out. Even four dodgy wig-wearers on a cruise had everyone up and dancing.

Nah we're going to do something else. These guys will be really good though. Can't expect the mrs to sit through 2 hours of music she doesn't really like.
