This was a common question when I was working in personnel in Holland - and you'd be a Ms. It can be used for every woman (as someone else said earlier, Ceri?) it's the same as "mevr."

Ahh, thank you!
Ms. Simone ..... it is then!
I won't use Mrs, cos then they'll think ..... is my married name.

I even have to get some other citizen to witness my signature, grrr!

I'm married, but I'm going to keep using my maiden name.
I don't know who the Ms is for. Me maybe??
Mmm, and after all that, I don't have a clue to vote for. I'd go for labour, but that latham guy is a bit wierd. Howard is definetly not better though.

What about the NEW party to appear ?
Saturday 7th August 2004
Family First 5th largest political party in Australia in less than 6 months.
http://www.familyfirst.org.au/index.php
From a first glance at their policies, these people could upset the apple cart.
