Windmills and Wooden Shoes...
I'm escaping the Scottish New Year in Amsterdam this week If anyone fancies meeting up for a drink or whatever before Friday, feel free to PM me. I've just discovered the delights of Olliebollen, so will probably be as fat as a pig by the time I get home

Windmills and wooden shoes indeed! I'd have thought you above those kinds of generalisations Andrew (even though they're both completely true, in my experience ).
Well, may I be the first to wish you...
Nieuwjaar gezoeten,
het varken heeft vier voeten,
vier voeten en een staart,
is dat dan geen centje waard?

The song about the "kerstbal" is just plain silly...
Basically Andrew, Dutchies are just a foul-mouthed bunch of reprobates who cannot control their use of profanities. That's why the Glaswegians have such an affinity with them

I think you may be right. I learned a new expression today - from Aaron's mother of all people!boudicca wrote:Dutchies are just a foul-mouthed bunch of reprobates who cannot control their use of profanities. That's why the Glaswegians have such an affinity with them

First of all: I live in the Netherlands and it is the best country in the world! Have a good time, Andrew!SINsister wrote:"For singing the church from to go?" I don't get it.
Second: For all the non-Dutch-speaking people: The expression had to with a birth control thingy actually. It means that a guy must "leave" the woman before he has an orgasm (so the woman won't get pregnant )

An exquisite way to see in the New Year. Hope you're having a wild time Andrew.
