Yes, greetings to one and all, and welcome to what we are calling The Official Creen Pro-European Advent Calendar of Novelty. This year, to celebrate the fact we are still in Europe, we are going to share some of our favourite memories and images of Europe, as well as tell you more about their Christmas customs. Today ... the Netherlands!


Miffy, the little rabbit, is from Utrecht in the Netherlands, where she goes by the name of Nijntje (a shortening of konijntje, which means "little rabbit"!)

We visited Utrecht on our recent tour of the Netherlands and saw the Miffy Museum, as well as its amazing Cathedral, and the underground Roman foundations.

Tomorrow we'll tell you more about this:

Advent Calendar 2024

24th December 2024

Made it! Hope you enjoyed all of our pictures, stories and videos this year. There's lots we didn't manage to fit in, like (Dave Walker  https://cartoonchurch.com/ ) (V&A Christmas Tree by Anna Lomax https://www.vam.ac.uk/event/wkwjeoDARmw/christmas-tree-installation-2024 ) What if Bach wrote Last Christmas? If you are on the socials over the next few days, check out the hashtags #DuvetKnowItsChristmas #XmasWithTheInlaws #AdamsCooking on Twitter and Bluesky. And we'll see you again next year. Lots of love!
