The Belgiquer flag. Dull isn't a bland enough word for it.Today I am in Bruxelles, world capital of Walloonery.
After a lengthy night of hard romance on the Oriental Express with Twin of Evil No.1, we disembarked, got on the right train, and were here in no time.
As usual these days, on arrival it's Oy! anti-terrorism-measure-precautionastic-jobsworthery! off with your socks! walk through this metal detector! name ten famous natives of the country you'd think would be over-bloody-joyed to get its grasping hands on your exchange-rate-decimated Eurocash!
So, 10 top native Belgiumers:
- Jef Denjin
- Adrien deGerlache
- Quentin Matsys
- Jeanne Deckers
- Victor Horta
- Dirk Frimout
- Gella Vandecaveye
- Ilya Prigogine
- Cornelis Floris de Vriendt
- Louis Hennepin
Sorry about the feet, though. They are decidedly abominablous in any language.
Now, I demand entry to your chocolates and extra strong lagerbeer!
