5,000 stag trips canceled

In all my years of traveling to Amsterdam, I have never once seen a Stag on the ferry.

I believe this story about 5,000 of them cancelling their trips is a fabrication.

I have sent a letter of complaint to the BBC. And VIZ.

Yes, as long as I know smoking dope is not a crime in NL, but the council can enforce public order rules if you act strange. In the last few years there has been as increase in xenophobic attitude and not only towards the Brits but pretty much anybody who is not a native Dutch speaker.

Geert 'blonde bombshell' Wilders is a chum of Nigel Farage's, who seems to have a lot of admirers here.
