    Smaller than minor flaw: our State of The Netherlands is actually the KINGDOM of The Netherlands. And for just today, April 30, the outlook is definitely not Stable but Completely Upside Down, as the whole country goes 100% totally party on Queens Day, the official birthday of the Queen – never mind her actual birthday is waaay to cold on January, 31. As of tomorrow, all will be back to rock solid Stable again.
