70 years old, retired 2012. Happy memories of travel to Belgium and Amsterdam
Sorry had a senior moment! Of course I meant De Garre which I read about on one of your earlier posts

Hope the change of owners does not spoil it, would be daft to change a winning setup! Hope to visit afgain encore I am too decrepit! Where have Margot and the tall bloke behind the var gone? Can’t remember his name

Margot told us she used to come in with her husband who had passed away and she came in every day, first thing and she used to let her in early. Probably passed herself now

We drank in De Garre every year for about 12 tears (last time about 10 years ago) no matter how early we got there, there was a lady always sat at the same table by the entrance.

Not quite going to plan, it is the optimism that hurts

Just saw them from our window, amazing to hear and view. Is it me but I have never seen so many and everyday the last week. Harbinger of something?!

Not too bad, heard way higher prices. Still a blow losing the keys, was it just front door or are there others? Have to cut down on essentials like the beef kitty!

Saw that myself on Church Road, thought he was displaying utter nonchalance!

Oh Lucy, that is a nightmare 30+ hours delay. Hope your time in Oslo was worth it

Well done! I have logged my walking mileage since I retired in 2012. Just done 3050 miles this Year, which is just short on my best in 2012. Mind you I was 58 then, now 70
Enjoy your notes from Brugs, had many a happy drink in De Garre and Dickies. Have a great 2025

You missed quite a gale Lucy, 60mph at max. Hope you had a good break in Venice
