(pen) I get the impression the Dutch are cheerfully lavatorial. Is that a fair assessment?

[Stevie] Not really, not as much as the British. It's a coincidence about the Duck thing - it's a Europe-wide name for the toilet cleaner because of the shape of the neck of the bottle. Now I'm trying to identify the Dutch sense of humour...

[pen] The boy with his finger in the dike points* the way to the Dutch sense of humour, I think.

* Ahahahahaha

Not seeing the connection between the bottle-bank on wheels and a duck, myself.

Depends on your stance. The Ka was nicknamed "Flea" in Germany (they seem to have an insect fixation), the Multipla was the "coffee pot" in France (probably could be exchanged for one after ten thou miles), not too sure about the resemblance either.
