    There’s no need to be abusive. Just post up your favourite cringe-making Scottism:It is in this forest of huge conglomerates that we came four years ago from Amsterdam to start StrawberryFrog. The city we came to was a huge coniferous forest, a terrestrial biome with huge advertising conglomerate skyscrapers that reached up to the heavens. Underneath there were brittle needles strewn across the floor. It was not the easiest place to plant our business seed. But we managed to do so – against many odds. And a sturdy sappling grew. Four years later it is a strong tree that is looking upwards.See?

    Het is even doorbijten, maar na 2 weken ongeveer, weet je niet beter. Je mist niets en je hebt ook geen hongergevoel meer. Wel blijf je het koud houden, maar dan trek je gewoon iets warms aan. Ik blijf op gewicht en heb er ook geen moeite mee, ik vind het een geweldig dieet!
