Tuckles, why don't you go to one?

I'm in Scotland. What kind of beach exists here?

 

[Dryvus]

Oh very well. I thought you were being relevant, my bad.

Common sense would have served you well, what right-minded person would suggest going through Belgium?

 

[Buxton]

Hitler.

In essence, you were suggesting for her to go through Belgium to reach L burg

I too don't know why a coffeeshop is called a coffeeshop. You probably can't get coffee. A café is actually a bar in the alcomohol sense btw.

EDIT: OH, and if you DO try stuff in a coffeeshop don't go all-out and try everything at once. Drug-tourists killing themselves in a stupid stupor cause a lot of whining.

I've been wondering about that the entire time I was in Eindhoven. It makes me confused. I didn't try a coffeeshop though, maybe next time I'm in the country. I did try some delicious beer though.

 

[FrisianDude]

What brand was that?

 

[Bulle]

Mostly Dommelsch, most of the other beers I can drink in Sweden anyway.

 

[Wolfang]

Bulle in Holland

 

[FrisianDude]

Eindhoven is in Brabant, domoor.

 

[Wolfang]

Netherlands=Holland  for us

besides, I consider Brabant to be more Flemish than Dutch.

So exactly how much do people hate you if you visit another country without knowing the language? Like, I know people get really worked up about it here with all the illegal immigrants, but I wasn't sure how people were in Europe, particularly Italy.

 

[Chechen!]

Really depends on the city. I do know however that Italians are the bomb where ever you are.

We have many fine beaches, but they are not like those in other countries.  We built ours to last, so they are mainly made out of, well, stone. 

In case you were serious, though, the Silver Sands at Arisaig are real beaches. 

There's one at Burntisland as well...

And that's about it!

Eh, don't try sunbathing though.  Hypothermia's no fun.

We put them in special camps.

Visiting a country is one thing, staying is another. In Sweden everyone will speak English with you, even if you try to speak Swedish. In Italy they don't care if you speak English but don't expect that they will understand you. In most countries it is acceptable to speak English, it's more where you come from that matters. Like in France they don't like Brits and Germans, but they do like Swedes. It's all about how you put it.

 

[Wolfang]

French hate Swedes more than anything in the world!

 

[Bulle]

No way. The French likes Swedes. If you are a German going to France it's better to pretend that you are Swedish.

 

[Almalexia]

Yeah, I suppose it would be best if I told everyone in Italy I was Canadian, correct?
