Merry Christmas and... Fair play. -
Think Cruyff, slobs of mayonnaise on steaming chips, think canals, lager, juniper berries, tulips and land reclamation, rampant lions, Rembrandt and the bright luminosity of the colour orange. Yes. You’ve got it. Dit is de nederlandse special.

Today’s story is ‘Technicolor Casket’ by Eoin ‘Quack’ McSweeney. ‘Quack’ is a writer and journalist in London.

Our voice actor today, Hannah Crowley returns to the mic! Hannah is an artist and performer based between Kildare and London. She currently studies at the Royal Irish Academy of Music and plans to release her second album in later this year. You can find out more about Hannah at her instagram @hlcarthouse.
