Well,
I've done my first week at work out here and thought i'd share a few things with you!
The weather seems to be a little nicer out here, than in the UK... BUT it REALLY rained yesterday on my way to work. There are no drains on the motorways and the whole place was flooded! <img src= "smileys/fcuk.gif">
I think I have drunk atleast 35 coffee's whilst being over here... and so far have not had a single cup of tea! <img src= "smileys/fcuk.gif">
Breakfast is a LOT different over here in Holland... many different breads and crackers to choose from, but where's my bacon and eggs? <img src= "smileys/silly.gif">
EVERY morning I have a ham and cheese sandwich for breakfast, and a pot of coffee..
EVERY afternoon I have a ham and cheese sandwich, bowl of soup, a yoghurt and a Coke.
Every night I have a 3 course dinner... I'm trying to be brave and have the "menu of the day"each evening. The other day though I ate it, then asked what it was..... the answer being "baby cow!"<img src= "smileys/fcuk.gif">
Maybe I need some more variety.. <img src= "smileys/silly.gif"> Ideas for breakfast peeps?? <img src= "smileys/smiley2.gif">
I'm in an internet Cafe in Maastricht right now, but as nobody is here I think I will go for a walk.. maybe do some shopping?? No doubt I will be back here later? <img src= "smileys/ponder.gif">
I can buy 10 hours for 40 Euro, so I guess it's not really that cheap??
Simo

I know... the 12th is not so far away.. <img src= "smileys/ponder.gif">
Well, i'm home from Maastricht now and have decided to go for a walk around the town where I am staying... Carde En Keer, or something like that? <img src= "smileys/smiley5.gif">
Anyway, I've just found another net cafe... and its only a short distance from my hotel. ( I think. <img src= "smileys/ponder.gif"> )
It seems much cheaper too... I've bought 4 hours use for 9 Euros, so I can come abck when ever I like... I think 10 hours was 18 Euros. <img src= "smileys/wink.gif">
So... Simo may be back on the net a little more.. <img src= "smileys/grin.gif"> And means I wont be spending so much time in the Hotel room!
