Really?
This article by Dutch newspaper AD (Algemeen Dagblad) was published an hour or so ago on this Saturdaymorning and I guess most of us who have followed the news about the restoration of the Royal Palaces (from the days when Beatrix was to become Queen!) will be appalled by the way this historical place & private living space of Beatrix & her family has been neglected over the years.
We have had this discussion before, I know, but during all those long absences (summerholidays e.g.) any home-owner with a sense of responsibity of a century-old Manor/Palace would certainly have allowed workers to do some highly needed restorations on (parts of) the property.
A property, mind you, the Queen didn't even have to pay for as it is the State that stands for its upkeep!
Something is truly rotten.... etc
