NFR: Belgium has a government

[sipwell]

We still are the laughing stock of Europe but at least we can be the laughing stock with a FUNCTIONING government. It took us 540 days BUT WE DID IT.  :yay:

Watch out economical crisis: you are going down and you are going down HARD!



Rejoice with me!  :beer:

Trust the Belgians to have an 'economical crisis' whilst larger nations are having full blown economic crises

[MJG]

Is that such a good thing, I mean look at how other countries are doing and they have govements?

Yes, because our credit rating got lowered because of the absence of a government. And yes, because the caretaker government could not take a lot of measures to tackle the economic crisis!!!

Learn Dutch, French or German and then we'll talk again about using the right words all the time in a tongue that isn't your mother tongue. :)

Another way to wind up Sipwell, go for the vocab/grammar!

we don't have hills in Belgium, just mountains. And as I have explained endlessly to foreigners: it doesn't matter how "high" the thing is, it is a bloody mountain (as you can see from MJG's list: "berg" means mountain, not hill. The latter is heuvel).

[MJG]

Beerzelberg (52 m)
Wolvenberg (51 m)
Hoge Blekker (35 m)

How can these count? Nelson's column for example is about 52m high.
Talk about making a mountain out of a mole hill.

If Mr Sipwell says it's a mountain, a mountain it bloody is !!!  085.gif

I can already imagine the smile on my face when you'll try to climb these mountains. That will be so much fun!

I am training for that course this off season. I have created a route I call the Tour of Flanders that I have taken some of my fellow racing buddies and wore them out because the hills are so pitchey, but shortish....like your hills (nipples)...oh, I mean mountains.  :dft012:

By the way, do me favor and track down Johan Van Summeren and buy him a meal please!!!

You are aware that you'll have to put your foot down after 5 metres because of the cobble stones (which you don't have), don't you?
