Cultural Emergency Respons provides emergency first aid to for cultural heritage that have been damaged or destroyed by man-made or natural disasters....which,more or less,boils down to the same..

[Marengo]

I actually passed Westerkerk yesterday and saw some policemen and an AA-car, a red carpet and a guy who opens doors of cars. Didn't wait for the princess though. And as I was with a friend who lives across the canal I could see 5 cars driving by every 10 minutes with the text 'Geen' 'Stad' 'Zonder' 'Boeken' , on the top of 4 cars. They drove from Rozengracht over prinsengracht to leliegracht and back, 20 times or more...

You are so right! Always an element of "Look at me!" ALWAYS posing for the camera.
I was ready to praise her restraint in dress (nice print dress, more subdued jewelry) and then I saw the full-length photo and saw her blue stockings!
She always just misses the mark --- again: "Look at me"

Just read the whole thread --- I don't think that I have ever seen Laurentien in the same outfit twice (of course, some of her outfits should be tossed after the first wearing because they are so hideous!)
Her clothing budget must be enormous plus all of the costume jewelry and shoes.
Laurentien doesn't believe in recycling her clothes and must a clothing shop's best friend!
