Quote Of The Week: Speed Bumps
The following conversation took place during a drive back from London, after passing through a street with a great many speed bumps (something that England is famous for):
My mother
(From the back seat)
“Do you have speed bumps in Holland?”
(From the back seat)
“Do you have speed bumps in Holland?”
My Dutch Wife
(From the passenger seat)
“Yes. Since we don’t have hills we need speed bumps, otherwise the country really would be completely flat.”
(From the passenger seat)
“Yes. Since we don’t have hills we need speed bumps, otherwise the country really would be completely flat.”
ahahahah, cool your Dutch Wife! Fantastic!
It was a good answer she came up with.
What about the Dutch Alps
They are a myth :p
Good answer! And she’s right too :-)
I think she is too.
So, would any form of elevation (if they exist) in the Dutch landscape be called “grassy speed bumps?” Heuvel = Grassy speed bump.
If they existed, yes :p
