There are some fucking huge potholes near my house

 Near mine, too. If I walk over the bridge near my house on a rainly day, I have to hold my umbrella sideways, because
 every time a car drives through a pothole on the other side of the bridge, a wave of water comes over and splashes me!  :zombiefuck:

 I love it when the city puts the official Department of Public Works cone or sawhorse over a problem area!  :autism:

 Yeah, a guy blew a tire in one as I was walking home from my former evening job last year.   :thumbdn:

Um, Holland experiences a record breaking spring this year. The season's still here of course but it's going to top previous 'most sun-hours' ever (since records made) and 'driest' springtime too I think.

Well, we'll see of course.. still 26 days 'till summer begins.

There are some nice places to visit in the 3 countries. Belgium's Ghent is a beautiful city. Luxembourg is cool too.

Well, lots of things one could see in the Benelux of course. Most will understand you perfectly well when using English also. (which can be a plus)

I can smell the quite big heathland fire that's been going on at the Kalmthoutse Heide p/m 20 kms southwards from where I reside via my open attic window at the moment. Fire started last Wednesday midday and think Friday morning's (today's thus) rain is going to stop it altogether luckily.
