Thanks for the link. I think that might solve the issue, the numbered sizings are children's sizes, which makes sense for the prices as well. I didn't realize that, I guess that shows how much children's clothing I've boughtSE6Ajacied schreef:I can't help with sourcing an Ajax shirt (though you can get one here for around £35.00 in the shops) but I did find this useful looking guide on European/UK/US clothing sizes.

Record stores closing down it appears on a weekly basis here - dowloading killing it. Go discs and musicland also closed down or about to.SE6Ajacied schreef:OK, I'll be in Amsterdam Monday to Wednesday next week but my favourite record store Boudisque seems to have closed down. Can anyone recommend another please, I like world/indie type stuff and especially Dutch stuff that I can't get here in the UK.
Cheers Gordon - I'll try and take a lookjamcocteau schreef:Record stores closing down it appears on a weekly basis here - dowloading killing it.

Concerto is still probably the best in town to go to
Yep. Most definitely. One of the best record stores in the country and definitely the best in Amsterdam. It's in Utrechtsestraat.jamcocteau schreef:Concerto is still probably the best in town to go to
Cheers Ko, yes Fame Music and me are very well aquainted lol - still no plaque to the mighty Ajax though.Kowalczyk schreef:Yep. Most definitely.

You should also check out Fame Music in Kalverstraat,
My favourite one in London is is the Rough Trade shop (Tabot Road), by the way. Can't wait 'til my nest visit (September 1st, almost certainly).

Another London record store bites the dust...SE6Ajacied schreef:The Rough Trade shop is indeed a good bet but if you haven't already then I can recommend trying the Music and Video Exchange. One of a few branches is in Berwick Street (which I'm certain you'll know). Really great for secondhand vinyl, CD's and DVD's. A bit off the beaten track but I can also recommend Beano's Records and Memory Lane Records in Croydon (my home town). Both sell only secondhand stock. Memory Lane is quite small and not worth the trip on it's own but specialises in old 60's vinyl and does some good punk/new wave stuff (unless I've bought it all). It's just around the corner from Beano's which is bigger and much more well know. It used to claim to be the the largest secondhand record shop in Europe at one time a few years back but it's scaled down a bit now, still a great place to visit though. If you fancy it you can get to East Croydon in about 20 minutes from Victoria or London Bridge main-line train station.

Yeah, that's a real shame. I know the shop though can't say it's a regular haunt of mine or anything. I do like buying CD's rather than downloads but I do tend to get a lot from the internet.......Kowalczyk schreef:Another London record store bites the dust...SE6Ajacied schreef:The Rough Trade shop is indeed a good bet but if you haven't already then I can recommend trying the Music and Video Exchange.

Kowalczyk schreef:Steve McLaren appears to have scored a YouTube hit...
For some reason the good man believes it's necessary to speak a form of simplified 'toddlers English' in Holland. A short McLaren interview for FC Twente TV appeared on YouTube. It was now viewed 150,000 times an hundreds of Brits are taking the piss. He even made headlines in some of the tabloids: "It is a mystery why he speaks in such a funny accent in a country like Holland, where even the homeless in the streets beg for money in perfect English."
An English comedian also did a pretty funny sketch about it.
Check this link: the top video is the original, the bottom video the comedian's take on it.

It's almost like he's trying to speak English in a Dutch accent - he seems to be subconsciously copying the accent of the interviewer. That's really quite funny but probably totally unfair to laugh - someone probably told him not to speak too fast 
Aye, but the guy in Austin Powers does sound like you Cloggies mateKowalczyk schreef:He sounds like the Dutch guy in Austin Powers...

Which game were you watching? Twente played some high quality football and deserved much more from the match. Once N'kuffo is back in the starting eleven (he was serving the first of a two match euro ban in the Arsenal game) Twente will be a force to be reckoned with.gordonvandekamp schreef:His quotes after the Arsenal only showed how even more delusional he is, he sounded like they'd won the game. I'm just glad it looks like Twente is in worse shape than we are starting out the season. I think he's going to be sacked before the end of the season.
