Amsterdam, Spring Break?

Post by Vralkie »

So, I've got this theory...

Amsterdam would be a hella place to spend spring break...
Some bulldrekers live there...
Weed was in low supply at the gathering...
Student aid check should be coming in a little before then...
Airfare for college students is cheap by comparison...
+____________
Possible gettogether?

Spring break varies depending on the schools - could you include exact dates?

when?

Post by Vralkie »

3/8/02-3/17/02 are the dates, I should be able to come up with the money, and it's feasable...

...Who wants to host? or hostess? (cupcakes, twinkies... yummy... :roll ...)

...BTW- How much will I need for a weeks' worth of bartabs? Is there a ferry of some sort to get to England without the use of aeroplanes? Who else would want to participate? Should they be invited?... anything else? :wideeyes ... ... ...







... we need a stoned smiley... something similar to the :wideeyes smiley, but with red eyes...

Knowing Deev... A LOT ;) A second mortgage may /just about/ cover it.

Siriously: It depends are you planing on eating out every night/some nights How much do you drink per evening? I can't speak for Amsterdam (never actually having been there..) but British prices are around £2-2.50 (UKP) (aprox 3-4 USD) for a pint. Budget acordingly
Is there a ferry of some sort to get to England without the use of aeroplanes?
Yes. However plane may well be cheaper. Also save a lot of driving. :)
Who else would want to participate?


It's a posibility let me sort out Christmas first
Should they be invited?...
I wouldn't invite them they're all freaks. ;)
anything else? :wideeyes ... ... ...
Almost certainly but not at the present time.

I can't remember the typical .nl prices. Deev, TS and I dropped about UKP 80 a night each while we were in London, though, and that didn't get us more than solidly buzzed.

Post by Vralkie »

ummm.... unless my math and/or exchange rates are all wonky, that's something in the area of $55.00 US per person per night at the bar... Sounds about right :p

Your exchange rates are wonky. 80 quid is about about $125.
One time I built a matter transporter, but things got screwed up (long story, lol) and I ended up turning into a kind of half-human, half-housefly monstrosity.

A night out in Hoorn cost 2 of us 150 Euro. So about 75 a person, though I am pretty sure Deev drank much more than I did. Course since I am a lightweight this is not suprising.

Hell of a time though, the streets have a lot of lights...

nope, I estimated it a bit high, but I'd pro'ly make up for that by actually drinking that much...

Shut up, you. I just woke up from a nasty night out, and I'm busy coaching Marco as he's puking his guts out. I can't properly defend myself against your accusations. :)

Kids, don't try this at home. :)

(Or if you do, at least provide a translation dictionary so it doesn't take the rest of us three tries to work out what the hell you're saying. :))

I'd say something about it, but then Vralkie and I would have a long argument about who's going to be the pot, and who's going to be the kettle.

oh, well here's the translation...

Post by Vralkie »

drunk --> sober translation

"fuck you guys, I just finished a bottle of blackberry brandy (there was also 2 sky blue's, a 16 oz. screwdriver, and a 16 oz. vodka/coke) or 2/3 of it anyways... along with that were 2 bowls and I was still standing... now that's a thing to be appraised about for holding my liquer"

That was an interesting night, I had thrown a party and finished most of the brandy by myself (try mixing blackberry brandy with pink lemonade sometime, you can get about 4 shots in with a 12 oz. can of the stuff... fucks you up and you can't taste it... :roll ) Niceaaron was there and he's pro'ly got some interesting things to say about the evening...

btw- I actually get better after I get across the trashed threshhold of drinking... play like shit at merely drunk... now when I can barely walk? Kicked aaron's ass 2/3 of the time :p
