And Still The Beat Goes On ...

[sunny-dave]

Two hundred middled aged Belgians singing along Highway to Hell in the street ... weird is hardly a strong enough word.


Now in an Irish bar listening to a blues and Springsteen band ... Guinness is good for you :-)

[DTCwordfan]

Hic - trust the good food is rolling out.....

[tonyav]

Guinness is good for you :-)

Sure is dave. What is the Belgian sing a long about then, dave ?.

[sunny-dave]

Band playing rock covers in cafe - with windows removed - large crowd outside singing along. Stayin'Alive was ... hilarious :-)

[Slapshot]

That sounds like a damn fine night out to me....especially with a few trappiste ales down my neck!!

[tonyav]

dave, for some strange reason my imagination won't allow me to picture a crowd of Belgians singing 'Stating Alive.

[humbersloop]

are they all dressed as Tin Tin?

[tonyav]

Or Captain Haddock ?.

[Jeza]

I've clearly missed something. Where are you, Brussels maybe?

[FredPuli43]

As bizarre as the sight [BBC News tonight] of a lot of old servicemen, and I mean old, marching through Liverpool while singing Lily the Pink, in commemoration of the Atlantic convoys of the War. Well, that makes sense; a lot of Liverpudlians are really Irish :)

[sunny-dave]

Yes Jeza - in Brussels for music and beer weekend.

Now back at my tiny apartment drinking a final bottle of Delirium Tremens Red to soothe a throat which is sore from singing along to a reaally excellent blues band .

Chocolate and culture for the bext two days I t

[sunny-dave]

Next two days I think :-)

[gness]

Chocolate!! Chocolate!! Remember now...no nuts but lots of fruits....x

[sunny-dave]

Peanut Brittle is nice :-)

[gness]

Bring anything with peanuts, moped boy and it will be some time before you can ride that gorgeous, black bike.......now think truffles... ;-) x

[sunny-dave]

TinTin tomorrow - the Centre du Bande Dessine is one of my favourites :-)

[society]

Hi, and pardon me sunny-dave so I could say two words to the adventurous Miss Gness.

Good evening Gness x
Seems like your body guards are doing a fantastic job. :)
How's the leg coming?

[sunny-dave]

Eurostar, Hedders - no need for a bike here - Central Brussels is a lovely small 'on foot' sort of place

[sunny-dave]

My favourite European city - beats Barcelona by a short head.
