A new business. With bonus material and bloopers and all. And you're right, I changed the title. Bit too presumptious. But if you want to find out more, got to learn Dutch first. Coz I tried in English, i really did, and it's just too much struggle. And hey i am lot smarter and wittier in my own language. So what i'll do; i'll just give it a go and juice it up with some Dutch whenever i am stuck. K?

Blijdorp ZOO

As you can see at the pictures underneath, we went to the zoo yesterday.
Erik Krol promised us about 19 C but i swear we got 10 at the most.
I went out in my ski jacket and scarf! Wish i had also taken my gloves.
Anyhow.
Right at the start the kids got a "speurtocht" (something like a treasure hunt but then they had to go search for all the newly born animals and fill in some questions about them). It was great and especially the baby giraf was a cutie.
We ended at the playground where the enormous tower is and after another half hour headed home to have some hot tea and coco!

BTW did i tell you we're going to be on TV !
Yeah!!

To make a long story short, at the office we sometimes use (psychological) tests to assure we present the best fit for a vacancy. Now the supplier of these tests was asked to participate in a tv item about Labourmarket and the role of tests. It's a local tv network (mainly aimed at South Holland) and as he doesn't have any clients there (apart from us) refered us to them.
The actual program is Wednesday and Tuesday afternoon they're coming over to shoot the film (4/5 minutes will take about 2 hrs filming!)
As T. my appreciated co-worker is even more of a chicken than i am, i am probably going to the one with her head on the telly. I've also arranged for a client of ours to come over and tell them that we deliver the best matches coz we use tests and one of our candidates (who will pretend he comes for a first interview and has to be tested at the office) It's quite a circus and next week is also the last week before T. takes off for a week vacation so it's not as if we don't have anything to do anyway, but he... no guts no glory was the opening theme of our company and we're just going to live up to that.
