Yannick and Kenny visited last Saturday my place. It was Yannick who decided to stay until Monday, because he had so much fun. He’s so a cute guy. I met them at the Station of Leuven, I live in fact in Heverlee, a sub town. We didn’t see much of Leuven, only the beautiful city Hal and The Old Market. Which was filled with terraces and the weather was splendid and we had a ‘few beers’ (you probably understand that we spend some time there)
After that we went to a Thai restaurant nearby my plac
It's a new film that's already brought out in America and soon will be here. Look at the beautiful scenery and you wish you could come here. I'll be your guide .the movietrailer
from movietrailer: In Bruges was filmed on location; Bruges (pronounced “broozh”), the most well-preserved medieval city in the whole of Belgium, is a welcoming destination for travellers from all over the world. But for hit men Ray (Colin Farrell) and Ken (Brendan Gleeson), it could be their final destination;
My honour to all woman around the world for their struggle to get the same rights and their achievements.From Wikipedia:International Women's Day (IWD) is marked on March 8 every year. It is a major day of global celebration for the economic, political and social achievements of women. Started as a political event, the holiday blended in the culture of many countries (primarily Russia and the countries of former Soviet bloc).
In some celebrations, the day lost its political flavour, and becam

Q: Does it ever get windy in Australia? I have never seen it rain on TV, how do the plants grow? (UK).
A: We import all plants fully grown and then just sit around watching them die.
Q: Will I be able to see kangaroos in the street? (USA)
A: Depends how much you've been drinking.
Q: I want to walk from Perth to Sy
I had a wonderful time in Thailand. Pity it only lasted for a month. I remember of course the beautiful party in Bangkok with Kus, Chris, Graeme and the others. It was a small party, but it was for sure big fun. I also thanks Bruce from Chiang Mai for bringing me to the beautiful place Phayao. No Farangs there, except we. It was splendid there. And I had the great honour to meet sweet Nettie (also TF) and her friend there and have, what else can I say, big fun again. Bruce and Nettie The beauti
...... before I arrive in Bangkok. Tomorrow I take the and I'll arrive in the morning, too early, in Bangers. Don't be afraid I don't bite and I'm charming, handsome, smart and a great liar. This a last WARM call to sign in for the event on 1 February. Just click on the picture below and you go directly to the right page. It's so easy I can even manage it.
Very soon I'll to the Land of the Smiles. As I at least decided to start my trip in Bangkok to get the taste of Thailand, I found hat I've to put an event. I'll arrive on Monday 28 January, but I decide to do the event on Friday 1 February, giving you the possibility to deal with your hangover on Saturday and Sunday. I'm completely empathic with your ....... errrrrr difficulties. Click on the pic below to sign in for the party
Ironing for the last time before coming to Thailand. I put already few things ready to pack. Now I just have 5 days at the office and than holiday starts. Not really at the office I've two dinners with employers to give them advice about selection of jobseekers and training on the job. At least it's a nice week to finish a year of working. I really like my job as it's not always at the office, but I can go out to factories and speak with employers or their HRM's. I kind of love my job I've lot o
It's nearly time to pack my things, cut my hair short and finish all my files here at work. As a good colleague I don't let too much unfinished files on my desk. Next week I need just to handle the going things and follow up some cases. Tomorrow it's newyears dinner and we only have to work till midday. A little bit graving for a good holiday: my desktop at work.
Yesterday I was listening to Paul Wellers' Wild Wood, before going solo he was a member of the band 'Style Council'. One of my favourites LP's (for the younger ones amongst us an LP = a Long Playing [record album], a kind of vinyl round thing before they even spoke of a cd ). I thought sharing it here would be a good thing.

Just got my e-ticket by mail. I'll be there on 28 January at 7.30 AM. Do I need to warn all of Thailand again that there's a suspicious danger coming their way? I'll go first to Jomtien to visit a friend there (I'm curious because it's my first time to go there) and from there I head directly to Chiang Mai. I'll be in Bangers only to finish my journey at the end of February. Sorry for all my friends but no chocolate or Belgian beer this time. I can't carry this all the way without it being melte
Yesterday I took the train to Antwerp and called before to Kenny that if he was interested we could stick together and share some beer. I phoned him when I arrived in Antwerp and somewhat later he showed up with his son Yannick. I met Kenny before when I was at a kind of a TF-party with Puna, Ghee and others, but it's the first I met Yannick. And I can assure you he's a nice and cute kid. He'll break all hearts of the TF-ladies . He was very quiet sitting at the table playing with his gameboy o
My New year will be pretty quiet. Normally I'd stay home and make some dinner here. But a good friend called me and asked me if I was interested to go with him to some restaurant. His wife has to work on New year's eve so I agreed.We'll go to a nice, small Thai restaurant, just only 200 meters from home. I went there yesterday to be sure we've place and I was just in time. We will eat there and after that (probably after midnight) we'll go to my place as I'll put some bottles of Champagne i
Normally between Xmas and New Year we can have free from work. But there has to be some people on the workfloor to have a minimum of service at least. But I sacrifice myself to work these days so my colleagues are able to take free. Don't think I'm generous. NO, not all. That's not me. I do it for myself. Soon at the end of January I'll be in Thailand for 1 month. I need those days really. So, no time to buy presents or to stroll in the streets and drink lots of gluwhein or genever (= kind of Be
The last weeks it's freezing here. At home it's cosy, but outside it's cold and slippery because we had some snow. Not that much, but enough to have a splendid view outside.This is taken from my bedroom: Isn't it romantic? And this one i also took from my bedroom window. The moon is very soon up and brings u in a special mood (it's full moon). I decided to make a tom yam kun. I hadn't enough kun at home and mixed it with some chicken pieces. Very good and brought me in the mood to go to Thaila
Tonight Tomorrow: sunrise at 08:41 and sunset at 16:38 As you see it will be a short day tomorrow. I hope we have at least more sunshine as today as we had a dense fog all day. These days we only see the daylight when we are already in the workplace and when we leave it's dark again. Good thing is after tomorrow slowly the days getting longer and another thing to look forward to is that my trip to Thailand is coming closer (see above). I live on hope. See you all soon, Eric
I'm sure a lot of you thought about something else. I suffer a lot of my back, caused by a serious car accident years ago. Now I have arthroses ( = A degenerative disease of a joint) on my dorsal vertebra (I have to look up a lot in the dictionary, lol). I was in pain from July until September, but still going to work every day. Just when the doctor let take these nice pics and told me I had to stay home for 1 week.This is one pic:Exciting, Isn't it? And I have more on the CD. You can get them o
