Second Son

At 7:30pm last Saturday evening I experienced one of the greatest moments of my life when I was accused of being an ‘International Party Boy’. We’d just returned from a trip to New York (photos coming soon) where we happened to bump into Sebas from FreshCotton at the Mishka 5th anniversary party, and a week later here we were in Amsterdam for the FreshCotton party. The FC boys were celebrating the launch of their brand-new website and they don’t mess about when it comes to parties. Unfortunately this one didn’t have bikini-clad girls using giant cannons to fire free t-shirts into the crowd like the last one, but it was a certified banger nonetheless…

At one point during the pre-party dinner I was told that there were only going to be a handful of girls at the party and that they were all either underage, already taken or pregnant. Luckily this was not the case as you can see:

Oh wait sorry that’s Remco from Ontour, I just got confused by the long hair. Actually there were loads of hot chicks present but unfortunately I was smacked up on Bullmeisters (aka Jagerbombs - it’s just a huge glass of Jagermeister with a Red Bull bunged in. They make you feel INVINCIBLE but they’re not great for your conversational skills).This is what happened to girls’ expressions when I tried to talk to them:

Here’s a photo of Eline and one of Sebas. Eline normally looks much hotter than in this photo, and Sebas normally looks much worse. Yet somehow they are a couple, even though Sebas has been known to draw penii on her stomach. Way to punch above your weight while satisfying your latent homerotic desires Big C… People always think the chick in the Mishka tee Eline is wearing is her, especially at the Mishka party where people were making her sign their t-shirts.

Here are some of the good people from FreshCotton… First up we have Jesse. Jesse is basically the Dutch Owen Wilson and is the mastermind of the operation. Here he is getting fruity with Remco.

This is Pelle who does the graphics for the site. Despite running an online clothing store, he’s wearing a £5 shirt from H&M.

I don’t have a photo of John, but here’s the t-shirt they made of him as a goodbye present as he is leaving for Surinam. In real life he looks even more like the Fresh Prince.

This is Olaf. I know he’s on some John Travolta isht here, but last time we were out there he started the whole dance-off night where I ended breaking my rib when he dropped to the floor and did the Worm.

Some chicks:

The face behind the FreshCotton Collection:

There was a lot of dope music including a live set by a rapper called Turk. He’s Dutch. Confusing, I know.

Plus we had our boy Snelle Jelle behind the decks. He let us crash at his place, which was dope as he is the owner of not only the biggest hair but also the biggest house in Amsterdam.

This is Darnell. Or is it Ice Cube? He’s not usually this scary.

Some superhunks from England:

This is Peter whose photos I have nicked for this post. He had a good time I think.
