fjIt's not the kids, they are behaving and mostly between cute and tolerable. They are often sweet.
It's not my siblings, they are behaving between being interested and distracted by the kids.
But the visual queues in this holiday park in the woods of Eerbeek, geared entirely to keeping kids entertained for their parents to watch over with some wine, queues formed in the early 80s by using stock material in the most common way possible in a very Dutch landscape... the trees, the counter-tops, the shape of the faucets, the radiators, yet the always cold floors, the cold moisture in the air. Visuals of childhood changes, of being stuck, triggered by confrontation with the lines of the stock objects this country was built on for decades after the war. You know why there is such innovation in Dutch Design? Because we all want to get the fuck away from the ubiquitous shower faucet that followed us all our wandering-temperature showering lives.
18 months I didn't notice them, now my fingers and feet are permanently cold here again.
