A typical Dutch delicacy, the infamous 'kroket' A typical Dutch delicacy, the infamous 'kroket'
A Dutch sense of humour!
Liquorice or 'drop' as we call
it.
Oh my God, do we miss 'haring'!!!!!
Do not
misunderstand me. We do not use drugs but we miss the down to earth and sensible approach
to drugs that is common in Holland. Not the masshysterics we find in Australia where
parents, sipping their 10th alcoholic beverage of the day, fly into a rage over their
offspring's occasional use of cannabis or the more than stupid politicians who use their
platitudes on drugs to gain votes.
We really miss 'oude kaas'. The very tasty old cheese. And we don't mean
the Australian 'tasty'. Any Dutch cheese is better than the Australian cheese! We also
miss the French raw milk cheeses. Readily available in every cheese shop in Holland but
not available in Australia because they cannot use raw milk to make cheese. (By law)
Volkorenbrood!!! Real brown bread with several grains. Heaven in
combination with old cheese.
The Dutch, commonsense approach to sex. No censorship,
no 'Brian Harradines' trying to ban certain movies. It is better for children to watch sex
than to watch murder and mayhem. Sex is something you educate your children about, to make
sure they practice safe sex. It is not something disgusting that has to be cut out of all
shows and films.

between her and the ever moody Elizabeth??? Or between the House of Orange or the House of
Windsor???
