    I would like to get a couple of things translated from English to Dutch but I think google translater just does it literally and I'd like to know how it would really be said in Holland.

  6. hippyrichy knows a couple of Dutch phrases but they are mainly names for body parts so probably not a lot of use... ::)

    Thanks for all the help guys

    this is what I've got on my van and I think it'll be even more amusing if there's a translation just above it.

    Cheers Matty, I've got someone helping at the moment but if that doesn't pan out I'll give you a pm. Thanks for the help.

    Jack, That's exactly what the Dutch police are like. One year I got lost in Amsterdam and flagged down a police car for directions. They said "Follow Us" and we wound up driving at breakneck speeds through the centre of Amsterdam. It was like a typical police car chase except the police car was in front and I was chasing them.
     
  17. I am afraid I cannot speak dutch but i thought i'd let you know just in case as I am trying to get my post count up.
