You don’t mess with Jen in Oporto when it’s hot; she’s got water pistols and she’s not afraid to use them.

With an enforced limited capacity inside Susie’s Saloon, and no tourists, Louise had time to pose for a photo on the other side of the bar for a change.

Kerry is no stranger to this page, but Ariane is making her Stun debut; she works just down the road from H. Murray’s, where this photo was taken, in Aen’t Water.

Page 3 The Editor’s Bit Did you miss your Amsterdam Stun? I’m was over the moon to get the call from so many sure I’m not alone in thinking we’re going of her friends in the Flying Dutchman wishing through strange times at the moment, but let’s her a Happy Birthday that she’s determined to battle on and make the best of what we can do. get back here in person very soon. If you’re hoping to see photos I took of you When the coffeeshops had to close on that in March in this edition, I’m afraid you’re out fateful Sunday, street dealers came out of of luck. They all appeared in the online only nowhere, forcing the government to change Lock-down Special that I put on the Stun tactics, but they did nothing for us Pub Quiz website before the bars reopened and they’re fanatics. Luckily for us, loads of live quizzes also on our Facebook page. appeared online, so we could still get our fix, All of the photos in this ‘real’ Stun (apart either playing as a team via Messenger or the from the one of Jerry’s birthday) have been occasional night together at my place, but it’s taken since the bars reopened to this ‘New not the same as playing against other teams Normal’ way of life, so I’ve had to do my best to make it appear like everybody is practising social distancing, but sometimes it looks like people are closer together than they actually were. It’s all a matter of perspective. My friend Sandra had a stroke a while back, but that hasn’t stopped her wanting to come back to Amsterdam to see her friends here. She was planning to come over for Kings Day, but the lock-down stopped that, so after a tip off from her granddaughter Georgia, I arranged a surprise video call to Sandra on her 72nd birthday. Another ex-Amsterdammer, Adele, in a bar, so Sidd, myself, Tamara, Lesley and went to see Sandra in person, as seen in this Jeroen were so happy when Café Thijssen screen grab of them talking with Josie. Sandra started their weekly quiz night again, even though it’s currently limited to teams of two. If you’re interested, the cover of the March Stun had the statue of Theo Thijssen on the corner of Brouwersgracht and Lindengracht. There’s no Cover Completion this month; even if you haven’t seen it yourself yet, everybody has heard about the Lego Andre Hazes on ! Most of our usual stuff is in this month, apart from Terry Mann’s column, plus a bit about Molly Malone’s on the next page. Enjoy your first post lock-down Stun. Andy Page 4 March 15th. A day that will live in infamy. Not just for the pubs, clubs and bars in Congratu- Amsterdam, but for the whole country. A day that we knew was coming, but one that gutted us all nevertheless.

Page 5 BEHIND Brian had every reason to smile; he could finally get back behind the bar in H. Murray’s!

Natasja and Jason were gloved up and ready to serve in the Three Sisters Pub.

Karaoke is the best way to get over Corona blues, as long as the microphone gets cleaned after every singer; just ask Yair in The End.

Good to see Jordy and Dimitry back behind the bar in Excalibur after the lock-down.

Page 6 BARS Adrian, Ned, Jake, Leo, Mara & Jane are not behind the bar, but there’s room for more people on the terrace at Coco’s Outback!

I don’t know where Jur in Maloe Melo got his mask, but it looks OK to use in the tram.

It was touch and go for a while, but it’s good to see Steven & Mark back in Molly Malone’s.

Andrew & Daniel had an audience of 30, the maximum allowed, in the Waterhole and it looked empty. Not good when playing for tips!

Danielle joined the Jones Project for a couple of songs in Molly Malone’s. Page 9 ROUND THE BARS It was a hot summer evening so Coco’s Outback crew Leo, Ned, Jake and Adrian took their break with a nice cold pint on the terrace of the Three Sisters Pub on the other side of Rembrandtplein.

Viivi made her Stun debut in the online Lock- down special, so I had to take another photo when I saw her with Paula in H. Murray’s.

Ivan and Dennis joined James behind the bar for a photo in H. Murray’s.

Page 10 ROUND THE BARS Bob from Molly’s and Jen from Oporto were in H. Murray’s, so I had to take a photo.

Josie, Peter, Phil and Joost were in the Flying Dutchman for a Sunday afternoon video call to our friend Sandra in England.

Jerry celebrated his birthday in the Magpie back in early March, before social distancing became the new way of life.

Davie and Josie got in the picture with Janet and her brother John when I bumped into them in Café Oporto.

Josie said we have to have a photo of her with Elizabeth too. I couldn’t say no to Josie; she’s the Stun’s proof reader!

Page 11 FIRST DAY OPEN Monday 1st of June 2020 will go down in history as the day the bars reopened after the Corona Lock-Down! First bar I visited was Susie’s Saloon, where Wilma and Vince were soaking up the sun on the terrace.

Pat was a happy man; not only were the bars open again, he got a photo taken with Steph and Kerry in H. Murray’s.

It was a family affair inside, with Anti making a welcome return, helping out her son Max and hubby Frank behind the bar.

With no tourists in town, Skip wasn’t too busy in Excalibur, but the new terrace helped.

Janice was fully booked for when Oporto opened and it was still busy when Shakira took over, so it’s a good job Jen was there to help out.

Page 12 TERRACES The big tables have been replaced by more social distancing friendly seating outside Molly Malone’s, so Rodaidh had no problem posing with Steven and Bobby.

Coco’s Outback and the Three Sisters Pub have both been allowed to expand their terraces to allow more space between tables, so it’s safe to come out and support these bars in these difficult times; use them or lose them!

Without hordes of tourists in the Red Light, Excalibur has got room for a canal side terrace!

Josélito have screens between tables, so more people can enjoy their delicious tapas on my favourite terrace in Amsterdam.

There’s no need to come into town when you can soak up the sun outside the Magpie.

Page 13 Behind More Bars Ema was on her own in the Waterhole, but with only 30 people allowed in such a big place, she wasn’t exactly rushed off her feet.

Anna demonstrated the ‘New Normal’ by keeping the bar extra clean in Hotel Torenzicht.

The chances of Charlie in the Cave singing “Life in plastic, it’s fantastic” are pretty remote.

Tineke discovered one advantage of wearing a mask; nobody can lip-read what she’s saying about undesirables in the bar.

Page 17 ONE NIGHT Molly Malone’s, where John, Fiona and Daan were having a socially distanced drink together while watching the The Jones Project perform their first post lock-down show.

Kevin, Robin, James, Darren and Karolina were socially distancing on the terrace but the telephoto lens makes them look closer together than they actually were.

Kevin was all smiles because he could finally enjoy a pint in a bar again.

Bob was happy to be back in Molly’s, but then again, Bob (nearly) always looks happy.
