The Netherlands is only the worlds second largest producer because it's counted in monetary value, and flowers are very expensive. A lot of figures on our -export- of agricultural production also count produce which is imported via Rotterdam harbour and the exported. The Netherlands is not that important at all.

Dingdingding! We have a winner!

This is exactly the problem. Our farmers (or at least a portion of them) have gotten used to being allowed pretty much anything and are now finding out that wrecking the environment is actually not something which is allowed.

Wat werktassen betreft kan ik Ortlieb aanraden, ze zijn prijzig, maar ik heb de mijne nu 3 jaar en hij is elke cent waard. Vind mijn vriend ook van de zijne, en hij wilde nooit een fietstas (heb hem uiteindelijk cadeau gedaan voor kerst).

Ik hoop dat ze Lex terugvinden en dat alles goed met hem is. Wat gaat er in godesnaam in je hoofd om dat je zomaar een kat meeneemt? (Waarschijnlijk weinig) Wat mij betreft mogen de dieven hiervoor best een tijdje brommen.

Fun fact: this castle was once owned by the Boleyn family and Anne Boleyn spent her childhood there. Anne Boleyn was ofcourse beheaded by Henry VIII, likely for not being able to provide him with an heir. After Anne's father, Thomas Boleyn, died, the casle came in Henry's possession and he gave it to his fourth wife, Anne of Cleves for annulling their marriage so he could marry his fifth wife.

I completely agree, tax these pointlessly heavy and large vehicles into oblivion.
