hi me again firstly thanks to all the pople on the site that has replied to my other questions. any way just wonderd what the public would think if we were walking round the streets with a joint would they be offenderd. etc cheers nick n arn
It's acceptable in the RLD at night and in the parks. Otherwise if you're discrete you'll be OK. A pipe makes it easier as it doesn't leave a smoke trail between hits. It's generally bad form if you smoke around old people and kids.
Larry is right. The RLD zone is OK to wander around with a joint, I see it all the time, correction, I smell it all the time. LOL But when it comes to the main high-street shopping precincts with the big stores and general shoppers and families then it's a bit taboo. It's just a case of respect and common sense.
I have no problem walking around London with a joint as long as I'm sensible and I have never had a problem on my visits to Amsterdam doing the same but it's a question of discretion, no? Toking on a fat smoking reefer is not advisable anywhere but smoking something that could quite easily be a ciggy in a discrete fashion won't get you in trouble. As someone already said, have respect. My personal impression is that the Dutch are a very liberal people and as long as you're not in their face or doing anyone harm, you can do as you wish. I'll be proved wrong by getting arrested soon I know it.....
ya thats about right. its ok to have a spliff walkin around the 'touristy' areas. but wouldnt walk down the posh parts with a joint. there are loadsa coffeeshops, but you know sometimes you want one for the walk somewhere. as long as your a little sneaky about it. and yes its fine in the park. ive never had a problem doing it anyway.
