Just come back from our weekend in Amsterdam, some thoughts about the trip in October.
Looks like the best flight time for us Geordies is 7pm on Friday night. That means we would hit Amsterdam and be drinking about 10pm -10-30pm. The bars are open till about 3am so thats fine.
Perhaps the actual main group meet / munch should be arranged for Sat lunch time / afternoon. If so, we need to find a bar that will hold the number of bodies who are going. Which is??? Say 30????
We can make enquires about this, but we went into one on Rembrantplein, one of the main areas, which looked about right. It was called "The Bell". So first question; can anyone suggest another, better meeting venue?
How about around teatime everyone went to a strip/lapdancing club, again near Rembrantplein called "The Blue Bell". NOT the same pub as mentioned earlier!!!
That would mean that the couples and singles would not be splitting up very early. We did not go into The Blue Bell so can't voach for it, but looked like fun from the outside!!
We have deceided to go to "fatamorgen" (spelling) on the Sat night. The reason for this being that we were at fun4two last Sunday and it was not as good as the first time we went. Still a brilliant place, but it was Mothers Day in Holland so it was not as busy as normal. So, we want to try Fata next time. Now fata does not let in single men, so at this point the couples who want to go to Fata will be saying goodbye to the singles.
As Fata does not shut till 4am, we will be having a long lie in and then going for an afternoon flight home. Because it is a bit of a hike to Gouda for fun4two we have PROBABLY deceided not to go on the Sunday unless there are a load of couples who definatly are going!!
Any thoughts or comments on the above????

I see that there is still talk about hotels and the like:
For what it's worth, and based on business trips and leisure trips going back many a year I'd recommend:
All are in Centraal. Stay away from Ledseplein and other more distant areas.
The Winston - Top place.
The Rho, just past dam square, nine mins from the station.
The Roode Lieuw, just before dam square, on Damrak. (Good dutch food here)
The Hotel Damrak, five mins from the station on Damrak
The Avenue in the street parallel to damrak, five mins from station.
The Botel if you really must but there are cheaper and better options.
All have phone numbers you can get from international directory enquiries. all walkable within 10 mins even with luggage.
Also you should know that the VVV (neds national tourist organisation) will help you to book at very little charge. Go look up VVV in google.
Absolute musts in the way of info for first-timers:
take the train from schipol to centraal station - cheap and quicker than the KLM bus
buy a threeday pass for the trams/buses/metro at the ticket office by the tram terninal at centraal station - it's valid in other towns too
there 's a secure left luggage facility at centraal station
the steaks at the many argentinian restaurants are ace (don't mention the malvinas)
the comdomerie (condom boutique) behind de bijenkopf department store is a good laugh
other stores:
absolute danny for fetish wear and toys
ellen shippers for very stylish latex
clubs:
fun4two at gouda is a good plan - the atmosphere is fine and the place is a little over-organised but all in all worth the trip and don't be put off by the model-types ishown on their website
and finally, the amsterdam historical museum is a good visit, costs nothing and has an excellent restaurant
best ever to all

blonde have u getting ya hotel yet we have booke in to the bulldog hotel
Rescued this from page 6, it was fretting!!
Without becoming offical organisers, we did some research about a pub to meet up in on Sat afternoon. How about a pub called "The Old Bell"? it is on Rembrantplein and has a good selection of beers, plus does food!!
Suggest meeting about 4pm?
As the day wears on, around the corner there is a strip show / lapdancing place called "The Blue Bell" (no relation), maybe the party could move to there?
At a suitable point those couples who are going to Fata Morgana would have to leave, but for those left it is just a short stagger to the RLD.
All in favour say Aye.
