Aaaaand the result of the Dutch Meteo Jury is in:
‘Wettest month of Aprilin 100 years’
‘Hours of sunshine parts of the country, in April halved compared with April’s average.’
Really, this is one of the reasons why like it here. Good comments to my posting. Overall, I'm feeling old now...
Fear not. We have warmer days coming and usually, we're a week or so ahead.
Even here on sandy soil, farmers face the problems of the ultra-wet ground. The only thing that grows like mad is...

Wow! I never thought about that. But it's true.
Depay: the most-overrated player on European fields. When he’s selected for the national team, a lot people start ‘head desking’, me included. And he moral compass is way, way off. (befriended with a...
When in Egypt a few years back, we found out about Salah's popularity. It's immense there. "The biggest example of Egypt's greatness after the pyramids" a guy in a shop told us. I'm sure it will be...
We (Dutch) are proud when one of ‘us’ plays in the PL. A lot bigger and better than our ‘Mickey Mouse competition’. Slot is a likeable guy, all here agree on that.
He did the same: from Feijenoord Rotterdam to the PL.
When I compare them: Koeman was a better player in his younger years. A lot of experience comes from that era. Slot is what you would call a...
Something about the new Liverpool manager Arne Slot. (‘Arne’ pronouced as ‘Arnu’ like the ‘u’ in ‘uh…’).
He’s from a bordertown in the east (my mother’s hometown as well) and now lives in Zwolle...
I was thinking that as well, however, I don't see Caleb doing things '... because the script says so...' . Editing will help, I presume, but it still comes over as natural. And when Clarkson's goal...
That's a story for movies (and yes, they've done a few with that theme). The old 'When you put your mind to it, you can make it happen!' In this case they needed a few people who have a 'free bus...
That series was a good one indeed! Didn't he do a short documentary about Brunel as well?
Interestingly, all three GT presenters separately are capable of making good series, worth watching. Both...
Oh yeah! May 3rd.

I am convinced that the 90s was the best (with the least amount of trouble) period for cars. Lots of mechanical solutions. Easy electronics - if they had any. Japanese cars of the 2000s are good as...
Nice video! Thanks.
Topresume.com has several 'packages'. The main feature is 'key words'. Apparently, a lot of CVs are checked by some sort of AI 'machine' for HR professionals. Your application is put aside when you...
Absolutely off topic, but remembered talking to this guy and listening to his collection of special recordings:
A guy in the Dutch chapter of the Triumph TR Register used to own an old-school...
It took a little longer than I’d expected before I (we) got an answer. Anyway, here we go:

Don't tell me that it's new on the UK market! In the 50s and 60s, there was an equivalent for it on the Dutch DIY market The name for it was 'Wonderplug' (Yes, almost the correct English spelling)....
I'll PM you.
My friend Don from Missouri flies over to Europe a few times every year for -always- classic car related trips. He stayed with us and we visited the Classica in Essen, Dutch restoration companies and...
We had something that -I think- looked like a tornado yesterday afternoon. It was forecasted. Nothing and no-one was hurt.
From ‘0-100’ in a matter of minutes. From sunny, friendly into tons of...
Every year, during Autumn, there’s sailing regatta called La Barcolana (no not Barcelona…). My oldest sailed on one of the participating ships.
I asked him about Triëste and he said that it’s a...

Mine can be used for smaller batteries (m/cycles) and larger batteries (cars). I have mine for 20 yrs now. So perhaps newer types have even more features.
