Yes, it does happen away from coffeeshops, usually among younger people with less money and among mates. It doesn't happen on a big or street level. The tourist bit is what it is, it gives a fantastic income to the city but away from that there are the local coffeeshops where the Dutch who smoke buy their weed. A lot more dutch people don't smoke weed than do but it isn't a problem in the neighbourhoods.
Haarlem is a top choice. I lived there for a few years and love the city.

My family have been devastated by the misuse of alcohol.
My friend lost her son to ecstasy.
Pretty much hate the misuse of chemical substances.
I'm sorry to hear that, but if you'll permit me to continue, you said the magic word there, "misuse".
There's a difference between use and misuse. If you misuse a car in the wrong way you'll kill people, including yourself. That doesn't mean we should ban everyone from driving just because some people choose to drive like lunatics.
When people die while on ecstasy, it's not generally the ecstasy itself that kills them, it's either dehydration or overhydration, both of which can be avoided if the user has been properly educated about the effects of ecstasy and the ways that it alters your thought processes. Proper education in the effects of drugs can be difficult for someone to get when the drug is illegal. Not so much when your country takes the Portugal approach.
Another "killer" in the illegal drug world is impure product. When you buy a pill or a wrap, you haven't got a clue what's in it. Decriminalise it and you get health instructions leaflets in the packs, strength ratings on the box, and you can guarantee that the thing you're taking is exactly what you think it is. This would save lives.

Very sadly this is what I recently witnessed in County Durham.
This all over. Total sense.

I agree about the tourist bit, it's needed and of course I also visit those parts. I don't tend to buy from those though, I used to years ago but you eventually suss out the best places. I'm not sure of numbers but I reckon 60% of the Dutch I know don't smoke it.
I love Holland and really like the Dutch, they can be cocky but alright with it ya know. I've stayed in Haarlem a lot, just like the vibe/quietness.
How long you been out there? I've been going on/off since the 80's as a couple of uncles lived there for years.
You ever heard of the Popeye? That was his bar/cafe. Been gone a while now like, touring Portugal with his blues band still high as fuck

I often wonder how people justify the expense to partners unless them are on it also
Talking 40-50 notes turning our round the doors before you even start on the drink. Like you say unbelievable the amount of people having a toot nowadays
To many taking it to look cool. If you want a bit then take it, you don't need to let every fucker know..
Sitting there sniffing like fuck with half of it still on their nose. Wankers.
Aldyyyy

And if you like a drink and your missus does then it's a weeks wage for most. It's f***ing ridiculous.

I first came to holland for a couple of years in 1980 as a youth, this time I've been here off and on since 2011. It is a lovely place and the people are decent. I've never quite sussed out this trader nation.I agree about the tourist bit, it's needed and of course I also visit those parts.

Haarlems tranquility and vibe was a big part of what I loved about it. It has everything amsterdam has (and more) without the craziness or hassle. It also has head for head the most beautiful women in Holland. Pavement cafes are wonderful.

I see, I thought you'd lived there years. I thought about it but chose Germany instead, looking back it was the right choice as I was to young for a place like that full time.
I reckon I could happily live there now but kids etc have put the block on that. Maybe later in life I'll get a place out there as I feel real comfortable when I'm there.
I'm back over soon but looking at Alkmaar or Heerenveen as I wanna watch their football teams and I've never been to either.

Shocking in fact. I suspect a lot of people will not be able to maintain those costs. It was when I saw a young'un in a wetherspoons on a Thursday afternoon chewing their jaw off that I started to fully comprehend what I'd being seeing previously. Even in my village, the barmaid was skipping along behind the bar.
Tidied.

Same down here when I visit East London, I'm sure in some of the pubs I'm the only one not on it. Most of the shit they buy is about as much use as hoying half a bag of flour up your nose.
You get the "it's really good gear mate, £40 quid a gram" like you'd sell really good gear for that. f***ing simpletons.
No interest for me, maybe when I was early 20's but not now.
