Wow, Paul, what a lovely trip, and with Fabienne and family as a plus!  Thanks for the pics and the report, and glad to have you back again.  :-*

Good to hear you're home safe and sound Paul! I have a few pictures of Leuven that I will post later. Oh, and I need to go to Leuven to pick up my copy of The New Yorker!

I had a great time too Paul. Happy memories indeed.


We got back yesterday from a long weekend in London. That was great fun and WARM!! 77°F, sunscreen was needed. The kids really enjoyed it, the quirky London cabs, the changing of the Guards, the pubs with names like The Goat in Boots... :laugh:
I really like London, it's perfect for a weekend away and with the new highspeed rail link, it only takes 2 hours to get from Brussels to London.

Brussels to London, it sounds so exotic! I travel two hours and I ...land on Paul's doorstep. Well, that's a pretty good trip, I have to say!

Next time I'll serve you tea  on antique china cups and you can pretend you're in London. :)

Zo? Dit is prima!

As a bonus, Fabienne gave me her copy of Queen's Gambit which I've been devouring. 

Dank u, Fabienne, for a wonderful day I'll always remember!



Zo? Dit is prima!   :)

Paul, if you haven't already, I hope you'll join the Queen's Gambit conversation thread in Chez Tremblay.  As you may have heard, Ellen Juno was going to play the lead role when Heath directed it, so she is now a Brokieism to me.  So the movie Smart People became a Brokieism for me, when I saw it two weeks ago.
