splifi Posted February 25, 2014 Share Posted February 25, 2014 I was there in january there was no crack down on british people got very stoned with no problem.The only bit was finding a bar that will let you smoke in and have a beer.There are plenty of them around but ask the bar staff if you can smoke before you light one and you will be ok.

forest dog Posted February 25, 2014 Share Posted February 25, 2014 @@Danwood20 You want to watch out for the cattle as well when your stoned. They wander about everywhere and I've seen herds of them stampede and crush people underhoof. The Dutch worship them and all the cars give way to them when they wander down the street. Sometimes they have festivals and paint them gay colours and decorate them, which is a bit weird after a bong, and they never eat beef. Hope this helps mate. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fat Charlie Posted February 25, 2014 Share Posted February 25, 2014 As for the laws people just dnt care I saw people smoking joints in the streets and outside pubs who dnt allow it My understanding was it had to be smoked in the coffee shops Yeah I noticed the same, especially the red light district and the Vondelpark. Local kids in the parks mainly. I didn't like doing it. My missus was like "We're in Amsterdam noone cares" but I felt uncomfortable unless we were a good hundred yards from any other people which ain't easy in Amsterdam. We had one by the canal outside the hotel a couple of times and caught a couple of dirty looks from passers by. Felt like I was being disrespectful, and worse, it was a buzzkill.

Twisted Rizla Posted February 25, 2014 Share Posted February 25, 2014 @@Wes widow , I bet there weren't many Dutch people smoking outside pubs and in the street. It's largely the English who do this and it's a typical example of the tourists not giving a fuck rather than the locals. Shame. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wes widow Posted February 27, 2014 Share Posted February 27, 2014 There was a few locals doing it and even the first shop I went to I got a phone call my friends were wanting to meet me at dam square the bud tender heard the conversation and said smoke that joint on the way I said thought your not allowed and he said no one cares But at the end of the day if it gets abused what's the point But anyway despite the 500 euros I spent what a great time I had Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
