Cpt. FrostBite 0 Posted August 11, 2004 All that text and not a single mention of "Dutch Ovens".Also you failed to mention that when the Dutch go on holiday they bring everything....EVERYTHING....their own sugar, milk, etc...etc....because nothing ever is as good as it is in Holland and besides, it's more economical. ovens? I fail to see the point here But you're right on the other part; We do take everything with us (although milk is something we will buy, because we can't take an entire fridge with us). We also don't take bread with us. It's more economical and we like our own stuff Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

DarkLight 0 Posted August 11, 2004 yeah, infact they are so common that Belgium (our south neighbour) secretly has a plan to invade our county using caravans for covert inviltration of soldiers. You can be damn sure about that, i'm coming to get you, bastards! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

brother_bob_wallace 0 Posted August 12, 2004 -=- personal contribution -=- The best way to meet hollanders in summer ? ON FRENCH SOUTH BEACH !!!! From 1st of july yo 31th of august, you can meet a lot of hollanders of french speedways heading directly to South french beaches (not bitches). "The" hollander tourist can drive 1500km in 14 hours, with only 1 stop to refuel (no idea how they pee, so my scientific conclusion is that they can hold it for 7 hours). How to recognise an hollander tourist in south france ? On any beach (invaded) in south, you can't make a mistake, 75% are hollanders. The 1st of july they got a nice white skinned body, flip-flops and shorts. The rest of the summer they are red like boiled lobsters with white strips on feet showing that they were wearing flip-flops a few days before. If they are naked u think they got a white short. Mosquitos. Mosquitos only byte hollander (and british) tourists. Who do not expect such attacks. So in general on the way back home, they are red skinned with enourmous red spots everywhere. But but but, they are so friendly that we can't help forgive them anything ! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
-33ker 0 Posted August 12, 2004 LOL Am I realy almost the only one who knows what a "Dutch oven" is? What I alway found strange about Holland is that you cannot buy alcohol in the mototrway gas stations. I've been there twice, but they didn't even have beer! I had to wait untill I was in Belgium!

Postduifje 0 Posted August 12, 2004 What I alway found strange about Holland is that you cannot buy alcohol in the mototrway gas stations. I've been there twice, but they didn't even have beer! I had to wait untill I was in Belgium! They banned it a couple of years ago. It's a pain in the ass cause it was a great way to get some beer after the shops close. But it makes some sense I guess, since allmost all visitors of the shops are people who are about to enter the road again for a while, and it's illegal to be drunk, to drink while driving or to have open bottles in the car (atleast I think it is).

Albert Schweitzer 10 Posted August 12, 2004 no usually it is the other way around. People on parties (already being drunk) find out during the night that they need more booze. So they decide to get into the car and get more at the local gas station. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

-33ker 0 Posted August 13, 2004 At least the Dutch gas stations had a nice assortement of titty magazines. I love the Dutch Playboy! Only pictures and no useless articles!

A dutch friend of mine had some kind of green French banana liquor ( ) which isn't available in Germany. So we wanted to buy some of this stuff in Holland before we proceeded to England. I assure you that I bought Stella Artois in Belgium. Â And I bought more of it in England. After all it was some of the cheapest beers there. Even cheaper than in Belgium. But the size of the bottles was a little disturbing, 0,25 l. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Tigershark_BAS 0 Posted August 13, 2004 "Pisang" is the Indonesian word for banana. "Ambon" is a region of Indonesia. Just in case you were interested. Back to Dutch ovens everyone. So what do the dutch call "dutch ovens"? Belgian Waffles? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

So what do the dutch call "dutch ovens"? Belgian Waffles? I'm always interested when ppl start talking about alcohol Good to know that And i think there is a slight difference between the smell of a dutch oven and a belgian waffle Or at least there should be a difference, maybe if you eat a lot of waffles... I had never heard of dutch ovens before, i've never heard a dutch guy say something that could be translated as a dutch oven... Â No idea what it is in Dutch...
