I have two whole blissful weeks leave from work and, against the odds and after weeks of pouring rain, the sun is shining and it looks like it's going to stay that way for quite a while yet. Yesterday I bought my first pair of roller blades so it's definitely going to be a Vondelpark day today. All in all, yesterday was a day of bargains. I was bracing myself for a hefty bill in the skate shop but got a fantastic deal. Later when walking home last night from a show at the Kleine Comedy (for which we got free tickets) some dodgy guy sold us a bike for 23 Euro. Now I admit this was wrong and that I'm probably profiting from someone else's misery and I promised myself I would never buy anything from a junkie and I am a BAD PERSON, but my moral standards slipped slightly after a couple of glasses of wine in the theatre bar. After all, it's a very nice bike.
2.3.05: As an update to this entry. It was bad karma... someone nicked the bike from infront of our appartment a few weeks later. That's what you get for getting involved in the seedy world of Amsterdam junkies!
