A trip to Amsterdam

[x Alex x]

hey all, me and a few mates are wanting to go to Amsterdam for a couple of nights, spoke to the lass at work who has been and says for 2 nights it only around £60! on the ferry though, where can i go to book it? or would it be easier to get a flight, oh and do you book the hotel when you get there?

any other cheap places to go for a weekend would be considered. thanks a lot!

Alex.

So you want a sex/drug holiday is that what your saying?

p.s.Yarmouth is south of Newcastle!

 

[dave]

from where you are ferry goes from hull to Rotterdam dont it? that be a slow one about 8-10 hours, the fast one is harwich to the hook and thats 3 hours plus you got to get to harwich, you better off flying, last time i looked at flights they was £11

 

[dave]

there is more than hookers and drugs, but if your not into art you might get bored, beer and food is loads of money there as well.

but they got some realy good cake shops

flighst maybe 11 but you have to add teh tax wich has just gone up in £5 each way on budget flights. i just looked at the cheapest tickets from norwich to amsterdam on flybe airlines. the ticket is free but you pay £59.90 in tax. you shoul dbe able to get it a lil less then that cause norwich airport has one of highest taxes in uk. reckon £50-£55 shoud be achievable.

by £55 do you mean each way?

was years ago when i last went, stayed on a boat hotel at the back of train station, was only one left but it was drug free so no smack heads on there. it was cheap an we got our own cabin, you got to watch some of the cheap hotels in the town, you get a dorm with about 20 blokes in a room.

the red light district if full of rouges, take out little money and only a chuck away camera, keep in an group and don't buy drugs off the street, street hash is wax and coke is Ajax. don't ask in the coffee shops for hard drugs as you will get kicked out.

you can buy cheap room in the radisson sas hotel at the airport off ebay cheap

thanks for the info Dave! and i'll have a look on the Bay now

I'll second the motion about buying drugs on the street. a 20Euro bag of some fine skunk that I cant remember the name of from a coffeeshop over there was roughly equivalent to a £20 bag off the street over here.

Plus its just nice smoking in a coffeeshop
