Aficionados refer to them as "Hoaxley" for a reason.Insanity: repeating the same actions, but expecting different results.

"Joe, have you learned dutch without being in Holland?"
No, I've been working in Belgium for the last year or so.
Could have chose French I suppose, but knew a few Flemish speakers and also the last contract was primarily Dutch speaking, likewise this job which is based both in Belgium and Holland.
"If so that was impressive"
I think hard work more than anything, 9 hours a week lessons then another 5 or 6 doing 'huiswerk'. There were also extra intensive courses during the summer, 35 hours a week for a couple of months but I think thats a bit too much of a push.Comment
