In your opinion, what is Netherlands greatest attraction?

On which season does Netherlands present itself best in your opinion?

[It's called Stamppot, which basically is
Potatoes and Veg of choice mashed into one
dish with gravy, usually served with smoked sausage and/or bacon]

Sounds Great.
M&S should do that as a meal

because that one was too similar to the names of some of our provinces, and too similar to Poland, as Terry Wogan once also said it at ESC

Noord-Holland (where our capital is located, Amsterdam)
Zuid-Holland (where we have Rotterdam - place of ESC2021 was held, and politics capital The Hague where also our royals live)

No? that is my definite choice, i don't want that myocarditis side effect, i will take my chances with Omicron (most of its symptoms seem like regular colds or flu and i had plenty of those in my youth, still do have sore throats regularly so i know what that is, i take antaflu candy and will do the same if i get infected with that variant)
