    Based on recent events, do you not fancy starting a riot? It seems to be all the rage for disgruntled minorities in Bxl at the moment and I'm sure I could still knock together a molotov or two. It might even get your paperwork sorted out quicker (how's that going btw?)
    How's it going. Well unfortunately nothing much has changed since the last PM I sent you some time back. Get the impression they're not sure what to do as they seem to be getting more and more complaints about the same sort of thing.

      Hi Joe,

      thanks for your reply,

      sorry to appear a pedant, I like the Meir, especially the walk from the main station, yes there are some cheap shops on there, but to compensate the architecture is amazing

      I would much rather walk down the Meir than be enclosed in a shopping center

      you are right about Pelgim street and the pelgrim pub and the jenever pub.

      Antwerp is a great town, like Beglium in general, so overlooked by us Brits.

      Aston's, Ferarri's also in Antwerp there is an Aston Dealership, a Ferrari dealership and a Porsche dealership

      says something about the town

      Milan.

      Milan.

        Agree, but on the same lines as the often heard "France is a nice place, just a shame about the French" with different 'F' words.

          I prefer Antwerp of the two but if you're only going for a weekend then either has enough to keep you amused. Mr Windy Anna used to live in Brussels (not in a shed though) and I used to go out at weekends and we always managed to find ourselves in decent bars/clubs/restaurants. You can practice your Dutch (Felmish) in Antwerp!

          Both have more night life than Eindhoven and you manage to have fun there don't you?

              It's an ancient art and not easily described
