ONE LAST TRIP TO THE PUB

Weekend in Brussels

We have just spent a glorious weekend (14-15 April 2007) in Brussels.
After training to Sally and Graham's at Tonbridge on the Friday night and visiting with Emma and Jamie, we travelled with S and G on the Eurotunnel and up to Jenny, Woody and Annabelle's at Tervuren.
After a superb banquet lunch prepared by J and W, we travelled by tram/metro into Brussels for a walk through the centre ending up at a cafe overlooking the Grande Place for a quiet drink. After much bag, chocolate, beer glass and general souvenir purchasing and visiting the local attractions e.g. Manneken Pis, we retired back to the Wood residence. We were joined there by Jenny Wood (Woody's mother) and by Helen and Steve who had just driven up from the new holiday home in Provence for a chinese banquet with plenty of vino and lychee wine.
After a great breakfast and another great banquet lunch at the Woods' , a walk in the park, a coffeee in the Tervuren town square, we had to say a sad farewll to J, W and A and it was back to the UK with thanks to all for a great weekend.
