Why is it weird?

You could just say 'two weeks', but you could also say 'a fortnight'.

Come to think of it, you could even say 'a couple of weeks'

Wrong. A couple is two exactly. After the wedding: Oh look at the happy couple. There aren't 3 or 4 people standing there, 2 people are standing there. A couple.

To couple train carriages together means to attach two carriages together. There are more carriages behind that one, but they were all individually coupled together.

Oh just 3 days a week, that's ok then. At least he's thinking about the environment.

But where will Europe sell their old 'failed-safety-inspection-too-expensive-to-repair' cars now, if Africa goes electric?

/s - just in case

After a quick butchers at the list, I think they are going after streaming sites rather than torrent sites per se.

No worries mate, we all po it.

FYI higher hire

I need hearing aids. My aids are so small they fit completely in my ear, so unless you are standing up close, you can't see they are in. I've had them for about 3 years and I'm still blown away how small they are and how well they help me.

None that I tried.

Muslim women must be covered head to toe at all times. This their sport attire.

I have no further interest to converse with an internet troll who is unable to discuss a subject without sinking into insults like a 13 year old in a playground shouting match.

Good day to you, and I hope your IQ level one day rises to match your shoesize.

I see you edited your reply.

Germany in the east means: eastern side of the Netherlands, and Belgium in the west means: western side of the Netherlands. I also stated my start and end point for driving a truck, Dortmund and Antwerp. Again, go look at a map.

As you don't have the ability to look at, and understand a map, I must assume my educational level is higher than yours.

You are about as intelligent as a metre of hard shoulder on a highway.

So go look at a map. How far is it from Venlo to Eersel? It's about 65 km. Add a couple of kilometres to the border in each direction - let's make it a nice round number: 80 km all told.

How slow is your fucking car, you stupid fucking cockwomble.

BTW, the speed limit of 100 kph is only during the day. At night it is mostly 120 kph.

If I can get from Dortmund in Germany to Calais in France in 4,5 - 5 hours (including stopping to fill up), I sure as hell don't need 3 hours to go across the Netherlands.

I used to drive regularly to Antwerp from Dortmund in a truck and it took between 3,5 and 4 hours.

Drive though the Netherlands in 3h

It takes 1 hour to get from Germany in the east to Belgium in the west.

Yes - and no.

Not for DoubleDickDude.

I see what you did there.

It's a fact.

I'm a truck driver in Germany, and even my Volvo truck turns the hazards on under hard braking.

In Europe it is required for vehicles decelerating faster than 6m/s² and I believe some vehicles might activate their fog tail lights too.
