Wonder if the Dutch would like to adopt Hertfordshire?

Wonder if the Dutch would like to adopt Hertfordshire? 

No thank you! We might take an option on a small strip of Kent but that would be about it I'm afraid.

I would more than willing to secede my house occupants  to Northern France/Flanders

[Ace of Spades]

If you would consider the Netherlands we could perhaps make a trade...?

Cheers,
Rob

[Fenton]

Well maybe

But I doubt you would want to

[Lord Kermit of Birkenhead]

Why would anyone want to adopt anything in the South East, close to the BIG HEADED CITY

I don't know, we have enough BIG HEADED CITY folk already, if you ask me.

We could do with a few mountains¹⁾ though, so perhaps Wales? As some of you don't seem to like it anyway.

¹⁾ In the Netherlands, anything over 100 meters or so is called a 'Berg' i.e. mountain.

[Lord Kermit of Birkenhead]

No - no one dislikes Wales - it's a lovely place but the people are terrible.

Is that not the truth about the whole world. . .the land is great but some of the occupents may leave a little to be desired.
       

[Ace of Spades]

I was actually considering the strategic advantages of a strip of coastline in Kent. It would make for a nice bridgehead!
And Fenton; you don't know what I want to trade so I wouldn't be too sure

Cheers,

Actually we see loads of NL numberplates down in the Westcountry in summer. So I think the invasion may already have started. 

[Ace of Spades]

  Sssssht we're trying to keep it a secret! (Perhaps a change of plates would be a good idea though! )

Cheers,
Rob
