got used to the Dutch shops and markets
I was at JHQ Rheindahlen from 1972 - 75 and my wife and I regularly did our Saturday shopping over the border in Roermond or Venlo.
Here's a couple of photos from my album taken in the market at Venlo - ahh! smoked eels - and mackerel!
FWIW We had some German friends who complained that when they asked for directions in Holland, the Dutch usually replied: "links, links und dann geradeaus"
