My passport expires the 17th. I have already applied for a new one (I'll collect it next week) because a) this horrible RFID chip with biometric data and b) I'll need it the 18th so I'd better be in time.
ok I admit it I haven't been keeping up with your jornal as I have been snowed - but I wish I had read this more recently. Your writing is so evocative, I can really picture the people and the place, I terrible at writing descriptions and characterisations of people. I can only assume as regards the english language that it was for all teh non-dutch people but its still rather odd. It's like when I go into a french patisserie in the uk and the normal language is french and I am expected to know how to order in french! Its seems so odd and unfair, its not like I need to speak urdu to use a asian store. As to a passport, they are doing it over here as well, its really crap, its all about meeting america's parinoia (and I suppose dutch govermental/secret police parinoia - I assume the dutch have an equivalent of MI5/6) anthow need to write some more comments hopefully chat soon kate
