What else have I learnt about Holland?

This is what some of the Dutch people were telling me over dinner last night. (They may have made up some of it)

1. Mark Overmars the ex-Arsenal footballer lives very near by in a village called Epe. He's a local celeb.

2. Holland and Jamaica are the only 2 countries in the world where soft drugs are legal.

3. You buy can drugs at coffee shops - but you can't buy coffee.

4. There are no Starbucks in Holland except in the airport.

5. The Dutch really are tight with their money - hence the expression 'going Dutch'. They never tip.

6. Allo allo is still shown on Dutch telly and is really popular. They know all the characters (Herr Flick, Renee, etc) and can quote all the lines.

7. They're not very fond of the Germans. Maybe that's why they like Allo Allo.
