Running out of gin we looked in supermarkets (all quite small here in Holland) they do not sell gin or whisky or vodka. We eventually found an off licence that had gin. It was quite strange, when he knew we wanted gin he took us to the shop next door that was locked up, let us in and searched for gin, eventually found a bottle of an unknown brand, ok we said, he took us out of that shop and into next door. 30 euro's for a bottle of gin!!

Are you sure it wasn't 3 Euro's for the Gin and 37 Euro's for the excursion around the winery ?
Seeing as the Dutch virtually invented gin he must have been rubbing his hands with glee. This is probably the first time a Dutchman has managed to screw the English since the days of William of Orange.
Carol - how big was the bottle?

In case the answer is 70cl - I will wish you sweet (and sober) dreams right now :)
