   IIRC I read or heard somewhere (in an interview) that on   
   a previous tour they ruined the "vloerbedekking" with sick   
   or booze of food or something, and they had a big argument   
   with the hotel manager about who was going to pay for it.   
   That must have happened in Holland or in Belgium.   
      
   But I could be mistaken. Perhaps I just dreamt it...
