Something New

Something New

What better way to launch the new site then with something a bit new. This one is a slight experiment. I hope to make the comics a semi-regular appearance during my on going writing. How often that will be I don’t know yet.

It took a little while to finish the site but Accidentally Dutch has finally grown up and moved away from home and into its own domain. Along with the new domain are a few other improvements. There are now additional pages (Profile and Gallery) which can be accessed via the tabs along the top of this window. Plus there are a few other new additions here and there in the side bars. If you see any errors or mistakes I might have missed please let me know.

Stuart

Stuart is an accident prone Englishman who has been living in the Netherlands since 2001. Even his move to the country was an unintentional accident, the result of replying to a cryptic job advertisement he found one day in a local British magazine. Since then he has learned to love the Dutch (so much so that he married one of them) and now calls the country home. He started the blog Invading Holland in 2006 as a place to share his strange stories of language misunderstandings, cultural confusions and his own accident prone nature.

    Well done Stu, you’ve finally moved away from the blogger camp and set up all on your own! Here’s to many more chuckle-filled posts!

    Congratulations! You’ve done it! I hope the comics do become semi-regular. Not that your posts and the comments aren’t entertaining enough. ;)

    I was expecting a complete new layout, but I see some things are still the same. Nevertheless: great site! And I like the profile & cartoons. I myself never bothered with making a nice blog, I have this complete crap blog from MySpace.

    I used to teach my English friends that the correct response to “Hoe gaat het met U?” was “Ik heb een heel kliene lul.” It had roughly the same response.

    Congrats on the new site. WordPress, only way to go.

    No Really “Ik heb net 8 verpleegsters vermoord!!” is how you say “would you like a drink” in Dutch….. honestly (thx to man stroke woman, BBC3)

  13. Tenakalaz says:
