Here in South Netherlands Heineken is not very popular. We drink the local brands. Alfa, Gulpener, Brand. I don't drink Heineken, if I drink beer it is mostly local, German Kölsch or Belgian Trappist beer.
PC. I only touched my series X lately to clean the dust off.
I like modding games and just a few games support mods on Xbox. I bought it when graphic card prices went up astronomically. After I got me an 6750XT haven't played on the Xbox. Also older games run @30FPS or some half assed resolution on Xbox. Meh.

I’m looking for some good reading on how to, eventually, best help be a step parent to my partner’s children and NEARLY ALL books are geared toward the woman’s perspective as though men don’t want to be a strong teacher and develop these kids into healthy adults. Ugh!...
I had 3 dads in my childhood and I turned out fine, broken but fine. My son never experienced what I had to go through. So I kinda learned how not to parent.
I think being patient, soft spoken when correcting, being structural, reliable and open on your own feelings towards anything and giving kids a choice in walking their own path in some extent...kids will do alright.
I remember this painting. My parents are into antroposphy / theosophy, and we had many old folklore and fairy tail books. I had a poster of him in my bedroom from 'Among Gnomes and Trolls'
Tragically died at 36, 3 years after painting this.
Not really the same but I knew the artist personally in my childhood and it is in the style of the antroposphical movement, which I do not approve of, it is like a cult. We used to go to her farm often and I played on the piano and watch her paint. Her husband was a concert pianist if I recall correct...long time ago.
Adrie Hospes, she made the cover for the Dutch version of Krabat "Meester van de zwarte molen" bij Otfried preußler.
I have never seen shell ducks, I had to look it up and read they are coastal birds here in the Netherlands. I do live in South Limburg now, butI did live in Bergen aan zee, never noticed them there although I should have. TIL.
