Enjoy

Does anybody know if Barneys Coffeeshop on Haarlemmerstraat has re-opened yet after its refubishment? It was a hole in the wall when I was there last time, but they said it would be finished around Oct/Nov. Can anyone let me know please? Thanks, H x
Great, thanks for your help FBN x
I've passed the place a few times... Doesnt look too good really.

...Started by the lovely folk at the Arendsnest.
Selfless as I am, I hereby volunteer to try the place out in next month. No, don't thank me. I do this for my fellow Channelites out of love.
Full of Americans sporting XXXXL T-shirts and white trainers, eh?
S'alright, I'll raise the tone in November.
America has beer culture???????? *~wink~* guess I'm not a beer connoisseur, but I think it looks like fun, Woody. Wish I could party it up with y'all - sounds like a damn good time will be had by all.
Be safe and drink one or two for me. Hell, drink 12 lol

Sirrah, I'll have you know I am in possession of all my teeth - well, most of them, and they are all a healthy and natural sort of off-white beigey colour.
And I have a bath once a month whether I need it or not - I'm not bloody French y'know.
I may not raise the tone in the pub, but I'll take up less space than most Yanks, which is always an important consideration in Amsterdam bars.
Well I', a fit Yank (size s - m) who does not wear baseball caps or sweatpants.
Hope to meet you for a drink now that I can drink!
I'm and bringing along a quite beautiful and charming American woman who is single. (that's right, even though I am damn good-looking and charming, I am a one woman man and she ain't my woman).

Don't tell Mrs Woody.

Police seal off neighbourhood in drugs hunt
Tuesday 20 October 2009
Police sealed off an area of some 140 houses in the Limburg town of Hoensbroek near Heerlen on Tuesday in a major hunt for marijuana plantations.
By mid-afternoon, 13 people had been arrested and 13 plantations had been found, Nos tv reported. The action involved over 200 police officers, including 75 riot police. Dogs and a helicopter were also involved in the search.
Police moved in at 7.45am, placing the Kastelenbuurt neighbourhood under emergency rule and only allowing people to leave their homes if they had to go to work or take children to school.
At least 35 homes were searched.
News agency Novum said the search had been prompted by a 'bizarre' surge in electricity usage in the neighbourhood since the summer - usually connected to wide-scale indoor marijuana growing.
The national crime hotline had also received several tip-offs about illegal activity in the area, Novum said.

Amsterfan, not sure if were being sarcastic or serious, but it is backwards. Case in point, these growers are probably in some sort of organized crime ring (based on the amp production facilities).
Drugs raid nets 19 nurseries, 18 arrests
Wednesday 21 October 2009
Police discovered 19 marijuana plantations, a quantity of hard drugs, an illegal cafe and equipment to make amphetamines after sealing off an area of 140 houses in the Limburg town of Hoensbroek on Tuesday.
In total, 18 people were arrested but more arrests are likely to follow.
Some 250 police officers were involved in the search, which took place between 7.30 and 15.30. No-one was allowed to enter the area and locals could only leave to go to school or work while the search was carried out.
The decision to carry out the massive check followed reports from energy firm Essent about a sudden surge in energy use - usually associated with indoor marijuana growing.
It is unclear how many marijuana plants were seized, but according to Nos tv, electricity was being illegally tapped in seven of the 19 plantations.

Wow that sucks. Is it an attempt to take down the gangs or gradually prohibit the marijuana?
Perhaps they should come up with some way to seperate the production of marijuana from the production of hard drugs?
It appears that they did, in this case! lol
The reason they were busted tho was they were stealing electricity. Doesn't matter much how much you use, as long as you're paying for it. As soon as you begin stealing it there can only be ONE reason for doing it. Pretty much a no brainer, for most.
there have been alot of busts over the last couple of months and alot of good mothers have been lost
the seon are always looking for grows,easy money for them
blesssss
Last few days across America massive drug busts of Mexican cartel dudes. The shit was all kinds of drugs and huge amounts in barrels and bales.

They steal the electricity not because they are cheap but to keep from getting caught by the size of their electric bill. It does matter how much you use.

I have no doubt many poor souls have been busted using too much electricity, but I would imagine (no proof) that it occurs with more regularity in european countries than in the US. I've known of hot houses here and it was 'ratting' that caused the downfalls. There was one case a few years ago in Tennessee, where they built a house over a large cave and grew in the cave. They had installed a commercial size transformer for the house, but still needed more electricity, for the grow room, as no one lived in the house. It was the perfect set up, but they chose to steal the electricity (at $10,000 a year) and they got caught when the electric company noticed. I'm sure it occurs elsewhere, as well, it just seems like the busts I hear about over here came about cause some rat was tryin' to avoid the unavoidable.
Cannabis is illegal in the Netherlands, never has been legal. The authorities sensibly draw a line between personal use up to three plants per adult. Cultivating it for commercial profit is of course not legal and abstraction of electricity is not the only reason these people were prosecuted.
''The policy of toleration, created by jurisprudence and OM directives, also specifies that someone may not have more than According to the appeal court, however, it says nowhere that there is a limit to the size of the harvest of the five tolerated cannabis plants. A citizen can therefore rely on the possession of five plants not leading to prosecution.''

Yeah, it's had it's day. BUT if you have never been to the supper club, go, I have no doubt you will enjoy it and have a great time!!
i think it would be nice after a few joints to smoke a hookah, it is relaxing and for me its is fun :D
PS: another thing that came to my mind, can you buy anywhere in Adam the latest hightimes?
well yes....Sorry to the person who started this thread....
it is pointless for those of us who cross the pond...
thats why I was asking....and I thought I was being nice.
Why Blackxum, would you want to go to Amsterdam to smoke
" good flavored tabacco "
surely where ever you are must have equal...Tabacco
I tap
back to topic.....
why would someone want to go to a hookah in Amsterdam...
unless your going to smoke tulips.
Seems pointless...Matching waterpipes, perhaps..and if you can't smoke tobacco in Amsterdam..? Tulips, or peyote would be nice...

Wonderbar @ Niewendijk 3, a few doors before 'Lost in Amsterdam' @Niewendijk 19
http://www.wonderbar.nu/waterpipes.html
5 euro and they fill the hookah with what you choose.
Hey guys! i did a search but didn't find anything!
Are there any good Hookah bars in Amsterdam Centrum? I did find trough google "Lost in Amsterdam" but are there any other? And how expensive are they, how much do i have to pay for a head of good flavored tobacco?
Arriving wednesday morning, cu @ Amsterdam :D
Couple of weeks ago..My son and his friend..did an classical experiment at a Hookah Bar...
Dump the stuffy concert hall..It was a success as there was no seating available for either show...
Looks like people are getting ready for some changes...
I was to take cover charges at the door..mind you I walk in and I get the feeling I am in a Coffeeshop in Amsterdam...
But I'm in "The Mouth of the Rat" at a very popular place..With Waterpipes and Tobacco..WTF...
It was wild...

FYI - hookah tobacco is basically tobacco cured with some combo of fruits, molasses and oils - very sticky to the touch.
Hookie tobacco taste bears zero resemblance to puffing regular tobaccy. Filtered through water (or whatever you care to pour into the hookah), the resulting smoke has a very sweet, clean taste and evaporates in moments. Hookah tobaccy is tarless, though there's plenty of nicotine.
I dig the hell outta using the hookah - esp. at the Hbar near Central Station (forget the name) that you pass on the way Barneys. They've got a window table and I've sat there chillin' for hours at a time. (one bowl lasts for a half hour or so).
Im a judge ;)
ALL Cannabis Cup judges will get in free!
So how do I win free tickets, yo?
Whoever is in town then should definatly try and make it to the show. These guys play good music. I used to live in San Diego and they would play this one bar at the end of the street I lived on every other Tuesday or Thursday. That was 10 years ago. Glad they made it to the big leagues.
Damn Wish I could make it.
Slightly Stoopid is going on a quick fall tour and I'm here to promote it and have a chance to win tickets. Slightly Stoopid is one of the best bands in ska music and they're coming to play for you!
