Amsterdam ,

Time to start the full Pijpelijntjes novel .
With all due respect, I have tried to adapt somewhat
to the attention span of a young online audience
with what I consider a mix of turn-of-the-19th-and-20th century lingo
but still comprehensible for current millenials,

Also, as there are plans to release an English edition of the book in print,
and this being just a trial version, needing more proof reading and editing,
just keep in mind, this is a trial version.

Here's the full html version of De Haan's 'lines from De Pijp'
and for anybody who wants to download and format themselves; as a TXT file .

(Pijpelijntjes could be translated as "pipeline",
but also as writings from "de Pijp" a former workers quarter south of Amsterdam citycenter)
