willem
Henk

The amazing popular TV show "farmer seeks wife" started again, this time with a gay farmer, Willem. Probably best if Willem stays inside his farm and never comes out... The farmer who I would like to know better on the other hand is Henk, 25...

She is really a warm, friendly and funny lady who sparkles on the screen and makes everything seem so easy, while all the time it is probably very tiresome, scorching hot and smells like hell...

Albert Falco

I was sorry to hear that Albert Falco died. Together with Jacques Cousteau he brightened up my weekends with their adventures on the Calypso (and under water of course). For more then 40 years he sailed the globe to explore, explain (and thrill). Thanks Albert - you are still one of my heroes.

After the shocking scenes last weekend amids the financial crisis the Netherlands is in everyone was baffled by the  amazing developments the last 48 hours.
