| Amsterdam is Ace!
...as no doubt many of you already know. 
I've never been anywhere else in the world I like so much.
I'd move in a minute, alas - so busy at home.
I'm gonna try to come back in January.
This is my fifth time in seven years and I've done much more exploring this time than I've ever managed before. You can just wander around for hours and come across all sorts of wonder.
Have been trying to find the perfect adjective, and I think it is,
ADORABLE     
Photos pinched from the boy,
but I took this one... |

Heard Amsterdam is nothing but whores and druggies, not terribly interested. |

Depends what you expect from it.. I'm kinda bored with it now.. just seems too much like a giant tourist trap.

I walked past more drunks and junkies on the way through town today than I normally see in the 'dam on an average Saturday night. | |

I really wanted to go a few years back, now top of my wish list is Paris, but I'd still like to visit Amsterdam at some point. Just for the drugs and the whores, obviously.

Neither of which we have here in Scotland, of course, what with our incredibly healthy lifestyles and such.

My cousin got an amazing job a year and a bit ago and he now has a flat that is paid for by his company in Amsterdam. He adores it and he highly doubts he will come back to Glasgow.
It's a lovely place, I really like it. Nice pictures. | |

I like it better now that the places that you can smoke dope don't all sell beer anymore, it's still a fucking battle though. | |

They had to fight to be able to do it in the first place.
A lot of the ones I frequent still don't.
I swear my mission in life isn't to disagree with you about my favourite freeport. | |

The ones I ended up going to the last time still did both (Barney's for example) but it was good not to just sit and smoke and drink 'cos then it's goodnight Vienna. | |
