lol tht's what u need when u go to countries like tht - a rich girl with good English...u did well there! And yeah, although I didnt have any issues as such in Prague, the people are as u say generally cold and not helpful with anything. I remember we asked a randomer once on tht main strip where a museum or something was and they said we'd have to pay them for the directions! Made me lol! Best thing about Prague for me was the Prague Pub Crawl...met some awesome people on that including a Nigerian dude he was one of the guides who I still stay in touch with now. Also met some decent American birds, ended up hooking up with a girl from Louisiana...turned out she was a lot younger than I thought tho (but still legal)! The crawl ended up at like 2 or 3am at the biggest club in Europe Karlovy Lazne which u probably went to (along the river next to Charles Bridge I think)? Had some epic post hangover strolls along tht bridge and up to the castle...really cool place.

Ryanair/Easyjet/BMI etc... aren't as cheap as used to be. They've added loads of random taxes and shiit. I was in South of Holland last wknd for Pinkpop Festival to see Linkin Park, The Cure, Mumford and Sons, Springsteen, Rival Sons, Soundgarden, Chase & Status...return flights ended up being £150 from Birmingham to Amsterdam. Would of been cheaper to get the Eurostar direct to South of Holland for £100 but needed to meet buddies in Amsterdam. Was awesome festival, near a place called Maastricht which is on border of Holland in between Belgium and Germany...oldest town in Holland and possibly Europe and a university town...amazing how many hot chicks were there going around on bikes! Unfortunately they are starting to stop sale of weed to none residents in Holland now...starting with Maastricht at beginning of May...just my luck! So we couldnt get weed anywhere...even at the festival they were doing full body checks on every person as u went in and police wer everywhere. They are even planning to do same in Amsterdam at end of year which will have a big effect on economy. I have been going Amsterdam at least once a year...one of my favourite places...gonna be a shame to see it ruined. Other than that I mainly just go to South of Spain every year to my buddies villa in Marbella, and sometimes go Egypt (went last November) and went Cancun for spring break. Def wanna go Croatia tho, best beaches in Europe apparently and some awesome beach festivals. Vegas and LA are top of my list tho for next big trip, possibly end of year or beginning of next!
Haha, yea man that is typical prague tourism for you, I had a dude ask me to give him a tip after directing me to a laundry servvice!!! How funny... I actually met that chick on one of the pub crawls!!! Yea they are killer there, our crawl tour guide was awesome and took us to some great spots to party... Everyone was giving me props when I walked into the hostel the next morning haha they knew I did well after disappearing with that czech chick as most people from what I hear never have luck with the local czech girls!!! And yea I know the club you're talking about, its like 4 stories tall with a variety of dance floors yea? That place is bitchin!!

Haha and nice man, hey what happens in Europe stays in Europe, plus out there there is no such thing as too young, 18+ and you're golden imo... (and in some countreis the age of consent is only 16, but that is pushing it imo haha..). I'm sure American gals are all over any foreigners out there, every chick I know of here are turned on big time by foreigners, especially those with accents...

Yea I went to Europe in 2006 (with my boy Dirty X!!!) and we got cheap cheap flights on Ryan, but then when I returend in summer 2010 the prices went waaaaaaaay up. I found easy jet to be a little cheaper but still more expensive from the last trip... I also noticed the later you buy the more the price goes up (I was looking at tix from Amsterdam to Belfast about 3 weeks before my planned travel time and it was only 90 quid rnd trip at that time, came on about 2 weeks later it it had gone up to almost 160 quid!!). But in the end I sitll think that is pretty cheap, especially compared to inter-continent flights here in the states... I ended up traveling by train most of that trip which I found better (but still expensive). I also flew on Ryan air from I believe Dusseldort Germany to Seville spain for really cheap, about $50 US I think it was, that was prob my cheapest flight... On that I had just left the 2010 'Love Parade' in Duisberg Germany that ended in that disaster stampede, I'm sure you can recall (it didn't even really make the news out here in teh states I guess!) .. super tragic and shame, it was the last love parade I guess. I just so happened to arrive to the scene of the party right after the stampede happened so I couldn't even get in it was a mad house and disgusting scene there..

That trip to Holland sounds awesome man, again I'm jealous you guys are so close to that stuff. And yea SUPER bummer about the marijuana situation there. I remeber locals in Amsterdam telling me how it might be the last summer where you can score weed legally at all the coffee shops. Heard they're getting rid of those and moving the red light district outside of central Ams. Its a bummer, I LOVE that city, not just for the weed and the fine ho's haha, but they def add to the 'atmosphere' of that city and it sucks its gonna change. that is crazy the cops were searching people and whatnot, a couple years ago I would have never imagined Dutch police being so uptight... I've heard its toursits that are to blame for the anti-weed, etc thing... Its the same reason they made shrooms illegal (in 2006 my buds and I had no problem buying shrooms legally and like smart tourists we went outside the city to eat them at this giant man made lake outside of amsterdam, it was perfect!)..Tourists abuse and and can't handle the drugs, they cause ruckus and problems I guess... I also heard other people blaming the French speaking Dutch / Belgians, saying their politicians had something to do with it, I don't really udnerstand why though...

If you ever head out to Cali holler at me man, can probably direct you to some cool spots to see and hopefulyl get you laid Cheers.

Nunya? anyone?
I've read you can report shady issues with books to these guys, they can investigate and will downgrade the books rating (betus already has a horrible rating man!!!).. Hope this helps

yeah, they are one of the few sites that actually still let me bet the same as when I signed up ages ago I think. I have used them for a lot of arbs, especially for boxing, and probably had a few losses (as one side of arb) on there, but then on Friday they paid out about 3 grand after doing an arb on the Russia/POland game (made about £250 actual profit) so will probably be limited by them soon!
