What does a hike across the #Netherlands tell you? The ten walks that I did to explain that astonishing country, starting with this video.

🇳🇱 Netherlands: 'Orange Sky, Rising Water' by @npw99 explores the modern Dutch political and cultural landscape through ten walks.

🇸🇪 Sweden: We don't often hear about 'Sweden's Dark Soul' but Swedish journalist @kajsanorman finds it.

🇹🇳 Tunisia: Mohamed Zayani's collection looks at Tunisia post Arab Spring.

🇯🇵Japan: See 'The Iconoclast' by @observingjapan, a biography of @abeshinzo.

@craig_johns I wouldn't be surprised to see Whitaker leave. He's a really good player and would bring in money, but I feel that he doesn't do what Hellberg needs on the right when going forward, and doesn't hold his position when out of possession.

@Champchatpod24 Middlesbrough - once they locate the truck full of black cats that the gods obviously think they've run over, and get a bit of luck back on side. Look at the stats and believe.

[Nicholas Walton @npw99]

@Champchatpod24 If we play like we've been playing - never guaranteed in football - we'll get 12. Especially if we start/keeping nailing it in front of goal. We showed against Coventry that finishing was the only thing keeping us from #1 spot. Big ask though.

@Boro_Breakdown HH has gone up a level (as we knew he could), and it's good to see it's in a Boro shirt as opposed to a Premiership one. But Brynn is the enormous plus for me - what a difference it makes to have a good, young goalkeeper who is brave and a decision maker as well as a shotstopper.

[Nicholas Walton @npw99]

@mar_boro14 Bold prediction: Coventry will be in the playoffs.

Empire designed by unscrupulous management consultants: ladies and gentlemen, I give you the Dutch empire. (Plus a good helping of Genoa too.)

Sugar, spice and slavery - my latest video explaining the Netherlands by walking across it comes from Texel, where I talk about what happened to the Dutch empire between the Golden Age and the Second World War.

@BBCTeesSport We were the better team, but we were short in height, have no defined goal threat, and they are excellent in turning transitions into chances. Conway could have finished it, but he's out of form - let's see Strelec. Hackney esp magnificent. #UTB and well done #Coventry

A quick look at the issues that really matter in the #Dutchelections #Netherlands (while hiking in Switzerland)

[Nicholas Walton @npw99]

What are the big issues behind the #DutchElection headlines? I say fairness, housing, foreigners and the environment. Plenty more here: https://t.co/sS766kEBeY #Netherlands

Most of all, go and visit the #Netherlands, walk across it (in the rain) and be amazed at it. Great place! #DutchElection
