What did I learn in my sun - Tues Amsterdam trip this time?
Well did you know -

Its not illegal to consume or carry personal use quantities of marijuana

But it is illegal to grow it - where some serious jail time can be given out for large quantities.

So if you can't grow it - how can you have it to consume?

My Dutch colleague couldn't answer....

Yeah but he didn't grow it.

"And now, members of the jury, I now ask you to retire and consider your verdict. I must instruct, however, that you give no weight to the defence's contention that the Dutch colleague was so wasted on Purple Death heads, and so often, that he could not have been in a fit state to grow a crop and that, in fact, he was so smashed regularly that he couldn't grow a wart. I have a sister who spent her life so pissed she would regularly sleep with non-Caucasians and she had dozens of warts on her arse. OK? Now, this court is adjourned... I've got some pruning to do".
