Hello

Love your flag. I was happy in Brussels. The Grand Place is strikingly beautiful. Also visited the the university town of Louvain/Leuven. My older brother is a high ranking European Commission fonctionnaire.
And the beer. And the moules frites... that's finger licking good...
First time I went to Belgium with my wife, my brother was waiting for us at Zaventem.
Welcome to Belgium, he said. Where do you wanna go ?
Waterloo, naturlich, I said. How many times do you get the chance of visiting the place where Napoleon fell for the last time ?

"Don't go to the Schaerbeek district" they said. "It's full of Arabs and Turks."
Well, that's exactly Mary Joan and I did. Had brunch in the most charming bistrot, and the people were lovely.
There's no such thing as good or bad nations. There's good or bad persons.
And from Malmedy we crossed the border to Germany. Across the Ardennes Forest mountain range. It's lovely in Winter.
I have seen the world. When I married Mary Joan I was a seasoned sailor. From Norway to Australia.
She didn't mind I was just a Warrant Officer...not a Commised one.
Officer and Gentleman meets girl.
We were glorious. A perfect match. A love story for the ages.
