# The pick-pocketing there is rife.
Seriously keep an eye out for that sort of thing, it is notorious. And the same goes for anyone hanging around the main train station in Amsterdam while I'm at it.

# You did?
I was? I just commented that something had been missing for a while and when you were mentioned earlier I realised I hadnt clocked you and summat for ages. Your double act is immensely amusing, you are like the b3ta equivalent of the Chuckle Brothers.

# Ah, I see...
Its funny, I have been moaning to anyone who will listen (mostly FPM) that something was missing after I returned from a week-long hiatus a little while back. I guess it must have been you two. Strangely a whole load of older members seem to be turning up again though.

# indian

african elephants are rubbish on motorbikes, they are better at unicycles.

# that's ok then
I was worried it was going to be african ones. What a waste of money that would be.

Unless they were motorised unicycles.

# I have been, albeit a few years ago
and indeed drink all teh beer. Tis very, very good indeed.

Beware taxi drivers though, they are maniacs and while they have meters they don't seem to work very well...

# WOOPIC!
Prague's great but...

DON'T carry rucksacks in Wenceslas square - lots of teefs.

DO go to the rooftop bar just opposite the big Clock (called the prince something)

ONLY do the old bridge early in the morning

FIND a good Irish bar away from the main square for an ace late night - and if you can find the Turkish bar, that's bloody ace too!

Ed: Oh yeah, the "old/new synagogue" is the biggest rip off in history - avoid.

# Kampa Park (sp?) below Charles Bridge
is the best restaurant, although I think it may have been underwater for a time in the recent floods.

Tretter's Bar in the old town and Radnost FX in Prague 2 are also top-class bars.

Culture-wise, go to the Prague Philharmonic, the Cathedral and the Joefov.

Oh, and the beer's cheap.

# Ah, cheese gunfights in a beer garden.
They bring back such memories.

Just remember. In Prague, it's illegal to sell drugs.

However, you can buy them, grow them and use them without a fear of prosecution.

# What I'm saying...
Is that you can buy and use all of the substances you like...

It's only the dealers who can be prosecuted.

I would recommend ALWAYS making fun of the Germans

Because half the Czech's have German instead of English as their second language.

# I went in 95
at that time we were treated like rock stars cause we had wrangler copies from the market.
My advice would be to get into the countryside and try to find some backwards yockuls who will treat you as well as we were.

# tips
Good bar called ujzed 18, club called the roxy and great veggie restaurant lounge place and record shop call FX or No FX
and if you want to drink really good beer cheaply go out of town centre.. loads of bars behind the main station in wenceslas square in the direction of the t.v tower ( which is also worth a visit as area around it is really nice.

# Two guys
stood next to my mum and when the train moved, they "accidentally" knocked her over. One "helped her up", ie removed her wallet from her coat, while the other apologised profusely to my dad. They only got about 30 quid and her union card, though, so not that clever...
