Let's see... about nine rand for a beer in a pub - that would be slightly more than one euro

andre in south africa   Thursday, April 28, 2005, 19:39 GMT
Why are the dutch so zuinig? Apparently, according to my guide book to amsterdam you don't even like credit cards
Sander   Thursday, April 28, 2005, 19:41 GMT
