Orange feelings

Well, the unlikely has happened. The Netherlandshas made it to the final of the Eurovision Song contest. Even crazier, at the bookmakers we’re in second place. I’m not sure what is worse, not being placed at all or being second. We have to wait and see what it will be Saturday evening. As soon as this is over we can prepare ourselves for the WK football. Another occasion in which the Netherlands will be orange coloured all over. This is something I really looking forward to. I always enjoy watching the football matches and even watch the other countries playing. Our television will be decorated with the “beesies and wuppies”; I’ll wear my orange shirt and Basil his orange t-shirt.

Furthermore wewill  have the front of the house decorated with flags. The only one not interested in football is Jan Cees, unless our Dutch team wins and makes it to the semifinals. That’s the moment he starts watching. No true fan, always in disbeliefe about the qualities of our team.  

Just a few hours to go and we will know who has won the song contest and then we will see further.

  1. Aww, Bazil looks cute!! Nice post, Flora! So, we didn't win, but it was further than any of us expected! Actually to my mind, it was the only decent song in the contest. A couple of Dutch words have crept into your post here :-)
