After heavy session in Batavia we head back to crash.
Aparrently I got on the bed fell straight asleep for 5 mins
Then woke up smoked a spliff then passed out fully clothed!!
lol
Woke up late, missed breakfast..
This is around the moment I realise i have lost the key to the safe, and a big chunk of cash.
Ooops. Shit...
So I think its best not to mention this, yet. lol

After showers and smokes we roll into wake n bake at GH.
Mr Haze, DrD and some others are already there.
Over the next few hours much herb is blazed, many ic heads come and go,all busy judging jotting
Down notes of the different flavours, smells and of course the High!
Getting that judging done.

The Rosin tech.
My good friend Ras Ras had been busy rocking the rosin tech.
He showed me the light, so to say.

We did a test squish test on one of my personal buds,
Chem D x 91 grown from seed.
Quick pressed, about 10+ seconds and voila!

So I had a few random crazy things happen which I wasn't going to
Post, but feck it.
It started on the 2 and day when I thought it was a great idea to put
All of everyone's money for the room, plus my own say 600euro in cash
Plus someone threw there passport and 20g of hash for good measure. lol
Locked up and put the key safe in my inside pocket.

Can't remember the order but we went to erste hulp somewhere, they had a great
Batch of intensive care 7e/g ( prob the best I've seen it)
I think we went to Prix first ?
I had agreed to meet Hydro 101 and the German crew ( northernm, randa, dude
with green jumper i can never remember his name, sorry dude plus me and my bro.
They where having a BBQ and the sun was shining,
So it would of been rude to decline.

After a mini trek we arrive at the houseboat, its pretty cool.
On its own spot looking down the canal
And enough room for 8 or so.

Northern m was a great host, immediately the BBQ was set up
And preparations begin.
Meanwhile at the smoking table I'm sitting comfortably
When several bags of fat headies appear.
All samples are bang on.
We smoke up and eat away. Everyone seems content in there own
Individual haze.
Time to head back, gotta meet 74 and Titoon at either Prix or Batavia?

btw most hotel safes are not safe. mostly it needs only to google the producer and the type to get a master code to open it. next time try it before you use a safe:)
but do not forget to write it down before you close it because this information is mostly inside the safe:D

that is exactly the reason why we now use www.airbnb.com for almost all of our travels.

when you rent an apartment,
you not only have much more space than a hotel room,
but you never have to worry about the cleaning staff coming in while you are away.
you also have a sense of what it is like to live like a local.

plus, the breakfast is served when YOU wake up and not just between 7-10am.

Thanks for the repys.
@ Tea, that's a good idea. I never thought of that.
@ Gauis, Here we go...

Now where were we?
Batavia, inside is packed again.
After another heavy night
We stumble back to the apartment
Apparently I passed out on the bed for 5 mins then woke up
sparked up a spliff smoked some then passed out again,
Fully clothed... lol.

We wake up late, missed breakfast. Take a quick shower
Which is about when I realise I lost the key and quiet a few Euros.
After a wake n bake I break the good news to my room mates.
( which most think I'm joking)
Then to the hotel staff.
As we are in Amsterdam, I just think feck it
And we all just went about as normal all week.

We where due to fly back early from Schipol at 10.30am.
So we had to leave the hotel at 8.00-8.30 am.
On the last day im kind of in a blur and don't pay as much attention to my predicament.
And we don't return to the hotel until 2am.

I bump into my coat, hanging by the door and something stabs me
In the hand, wtf? I quickly check...could it be... Its the key!
Thank god. I quickly open the safe and put the contents on the side.
Wow, that was close as I later found out they did not have a spare key an
Would of got a locksmith!

I smoke myself to sleep, happy.
Just got to get up for 8am to catch the flight back.

The weeks late nights all catch up with me and I sleep through Titoon getting up
Packing his stuff and leaving and my alarm.
I awake in an instant panic, shit what's the time?
I look down its 8.00am and we should be leaving already.

Good job I packed last night. We quickly get up, say our goodbyes
Then leg it to Central station, train to Schipol and finally to the
Check in desk.
Dude blankly looks at me and says " your 8 mins too late" ...
Too late.! Shit...
So I run to the flybe desk, she says 350e for both of you to fly back at 2 pm.
I replied " I've got like 32euro..". She shakes her head and makes a hand gesture for me to go away.
I said , seriouslly, we have no way to get back can you not help us out ?
No. She flatly replied.

About now I reach for my mobile phone then realise I had left it charging
At the hotel...
It never rains only pours...lol right about now I'm really glad I had kept that hash ball
And gram of shatter. I walk straight out the front revolving door and built a massive hash bomber
Lathered in oil.....ahhh that's better.

So now we are stuck in Schipol airport. ( but I'm so high I don't care)
We decide to head back to Amsterdam central the back to the hotel to book another night.
As I walk in, the guy looks puzzled. You didn't miss your flight to get your phone did you?
lol... No, cause not I say but I was glad to have it back. You seem almost naked without one these days.
As you guessed it with the luck we where having they had no rooms left.
This is where he says " you want to stop at mine ?".... Result!
He says to come back when he finishes at 11.
Brent you are a hero. Big up yourself.

@ Tea, thanks man, the first version i lost was better but
This is the main jist of what we did and on the whole was massive fun. You can learn from everything.
#1 when the airport say arrive 2 hours before you fly they mean it.

lol.

The next morning after a few calls and emails to the UK I had flight's booked for 2 pm
Which we caught no problem.
Even saw UB40 on the plane home.

I had a great time seeing everyone.
Was a pleasure to see all the winners again.
Dr P with that holy prize of First breeder Sativa, top of the tree.
Well done mate.
Hortilab does it again. That Starbud was perfectly trimmed. Excellent presentation.
Papz, well done man.
GC420 also well done your chem sample was in my top 3.
Bubblecrazy for 1st hash. She even let a little welp out! Bless her.
Reminds me of that winning feeling, feels good to win.

Big ups Gauis, Old pink and packers.
Massive year again.

Now I'm sat at home smoking my Chem D x 91 entry that was 2 weeks late for entry.
I actually planned a room to finish for the cup and was well out.
For next year I want to be selecting entry's around December.
Next year, next year.

did you know... easyjet does internet check in and boarding passes now (on your phone) means you can go straight to the boarding gate if you got only hand luggage.. when you do this you have a lot more time to make the gate than if you have to check in physically...you probably knew that, but just in case... I did it last couple of times I flew to uk and was amazed at the time I saved..(have to check in online 24hours before flight though)

hehe, the year I entered, I finished my entries in December for fear of not getting in enough cure time ...turns out a 4 month cure was just the thing ;) .. thinking about an entry for next year if I can find something exciting enough... maybe not so long on the cure this time though...lmao

great thread man, kept me entertained for days, cheers :)
