ah yes... i think the thing was my opa's brother lived in the netherlands 

 ah yes, the dutch say "oom" like "oom piet" uncle peter, the oo being pronounced like the o in home 

 oh i love me the sound of a big tall dutch woman speaking a thick northern accent wawwwww *gurgle* 

 seriously, idk if you have ever heard the way a group of dutch women sound when they talk to each other it's like a gathering of songbirds
