Yeah in Hungary there is a tradition to leave sweets etc. in kids' shoes over the night December 5th-6th and say it was Santa (Mikulás). And then they say it's not Santa but little Jesus who brings the presents on Christmas Eve.

A Dutch director. Made movies like 'Speed', I think.

I recognize Ruud Van Nistelrooij ( ManU striker ) and Marco van Basten ( former AC Milan striker ). Do I get a prize?

Well I recognised 10 of the 15 [img]smile.gif[/img] - not bad for a spots mad Aussie . I am pissed I hit the send button too soon though - I realised who Sinterklaas was, and that would have made my total 11. Oh well, no editing allowed.

Umm actually Hungary is almost 3 times the size in land area as Holland. However dutch do have 1.5 times the population. They have to beat us cos we have so much more class they feel threatened And we do not need that many of us to rally

To be fair I did post the names in Hungarian format, making them somewhat unrecognisable but on the other hand, dreamer could've posted the entire dutch football team and most people will have heard of them.

Exactly, and that doesn't go for your petty footballsquad.
