Henri you say Queen Beatrix is not to blame... Then you say that she (Beatrix) listens to her guests wishes (contrary to Elizabeth II who doesn't). So instead of doing things according to her own protocol Q. Beatrix simply adapts to whoever comes to town... Well sorry but in my logic I think she is to blame than. Shé is the one that has decided that things go that way. Look at how Denmark welcomed a president from a republic today...that ís something different than overhere! The Dutch royal family and court have no consistent protocol at all! Everything is done in a mish-mash, chaotic way (exept maybe for Prinsjesdag).
