Utrecht-ive Utrecht

I'm beginning to collect international Irish pubs like a Jack Nagle, I am. I've now seen more football matches in Mick O'Connells pub in Utrecht than any oub in Glasgow.....a bizarre state of affairs.

When in the Netherlands, BEWARE THE BUTTERMILK. Freakishly these people love this crap....and it comes in cartons disguised as ordinary milk. Holy Alien Nation Batman. Even the flavoured milks come in 'smooth' and 'lumpy' formats. Akkka thhu!

Utrecht is pretty cool. Typical university town. Fab Cathedral and old town area. Coffee shops with strange smells and decent restaurants. I recommend the 'Brootje Mario' for a lunchtime snack.
