New Leadership: Update

New Leadership

It’s been a week since I announced myself as the new leader of Holland and so far there have been no ‘official’ complaints. I take this as a sign that the Dutch government is happy to accept the change.

I have already started to construct a new government by offering fellow blogger Barb (French Bean) the position of minister for transport (it happened in the comments so it’s official and legally binding).

Pop on over to her blog Two Beans or Not Two Beans to see her exciting plans for the future of Dutch transport… Although I think I might have to have a few word with her about some of her ideas.

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.

    Phew, you had me worried for a while, but with these plans you’ll have an uprising against you soon enough. Sure, you’ll last longer the Balkenende I government, but eventually your government will fall. I wouldn’t count on any elections afterwards though… >:D

    Barb – Good to hear.

    Wezz6400 – No, no, no. I’ve had a word with her. Everything is fine here now. No need to over throw your new king.

    Whoa, I didn’t realize I just had to ASK! I call science minister. :D

  5. Invader Stu says:

    Yvette – Well… You’re job does sound quite science-y… The position is yours.

  6. Yvette says:

    Sweet as! Now if you’ll excuse me I’m off to cover eastern Holland in more radio astronomy dishes, I’ll be sure to send you the bill when I’m done. ;)

    AstriQK – Ok

    Thomas Adriaan Hellinger – Ummm… I’m not so sure that would be good for our international relations
