Gibraltar players sew each other's shoes before game against Orange

The players of Orange were allowed back on the field yesterday. The opponent was: Gibraltar. That should not cause too many problems for the Dutch national team, if only because the shoes of the opponent are falling apart from misery. The photo that player Scott Wiseman shares on Instagram says it all. He sews on a shoe of a teammate, wondering whether one of the Dutch players would also do this on match day. The answer is easy to guess. And there are other, clearly identifiable reasons why the Dutch national team had to beat the men in Gibraltar yesterday without any problems. . For example, the entire selection of Gibraltar is worth 475,000 euros according to the leading Transfermarkt.de. The current selection of Orange, without Virgil van Dijk, costs a sloppy 512 million. Gibraltar, like the Netherlands, played two matches in qualifying. They lost 4-1 to Montenegro and 3-0 to Norway. The Dutch lost 4-2 to Turkey and won 2-0 to Latvia. And as you of course know: the Dutch 11 won after a 0-1 halftime score 0-7.

In this edition of Happy Hour we have a nice Cover-Original -> . Yeah! It goes without saying that we will return to a turbulent weekend in Krimpen.

Ellen Bommeljé is present for the item “Happy with the Bieb aan den IJssel”. The main subject will be the book “Childhood” by Tove Ditlevsen .

Municipalities support National Moluccan Monument

This year it will be 70 years ago that the 1st generation Moluccans were transferred to the Netherlands in 1951 with 12 ship transports. On command, about 4000 Moluccan KNIL soldiers and Navy men came to the Netherlands with their families (in total 12,500 persons). At the point of arrival of the 1st transport ship at the Lloydkade in Rotterdam, it is not yet possible to trace a historical event. The National Moluccan Monument Foundation (LMM) is committed to realizing a monument. The monument will be a tribute to this 1st generation Moluccans and their families and in recognition of the shared past. The monument can also serve to continue telling the story of the arrival of Moluccans in the Netherlands to current and future generations. For anyone interested in this history, the foundation wants to offer an opportunity to learn more. They believe that more knowledge of each other's past leads to more understanding. To realize a monument, the LMM foundation has entered into a p

Largest water lily in the world blooms in Leiden

The oldest botanical garden in the Netherlands, the Hortus Botanicus in Leiden, has a wonderful pineapple scent. That means that the Victoria Amazonica is in bloom. With leaves that can grow up to two meters wide, this is the largest water lily in the world and its flowers smell like pineapple. The flower of the Victoria Amazonica is a night bloomer and only blooms in high summer. What is special is that the water lily only blooms for two nights. Rogier de Vugt, cashier of the Leiden Hortus Botanicus, knows everything about the plant. "The first night the flower is white and gives off a strong pineapple smell, which attracts beetles. The second night the flower turns pink and has no smell anymore. The beetles still come to it and are covered with pollen", explains De Vugt. Because the plant has an enormous size, only one can grow in the pond of the Hortus. "The leaves have raised edges, so they can't grow over each other, so they can't get any light anymore. Th
