lady in an art gallery
there was no flash photography in this art gallery so i ended up with this quite attractive Silhouette of a lady looking at a black and white painting

elegant finds some friends
remeber elegant ? he’s found two new friends
the worst combination ?
this place is called Drug Opera. Surely the worst combination of things ever ?
jesus’ mum calms the storm
i went in to this church last time i was in brussels and saw this fantastic statue stuck up by a window. my attempts to photograph it failed last time, so i tried especially hard this time.
here is jesus’ mum on a boat calming the storm. just as well the grown up jesus had his mum there to do all the miracles for him. she’s got jesus in one arm and a pepper grinder in the other !

found photo
i found a passport photo this morning near my hotel in brussels.
i’ll add to davescollections in due course.
puddings through a window
here are some cakes i spotted through a window when i was walking down a street in brussels.
street dog sign
it’s hard to describe the feeling when i find a dog sign which i haven’t seen before. look at this one !
lager fountain
lion fountain holding beer can.
me in a restaurant
not only did i find the best bar in the world ever this evening, but i also went to a very nice restaurant called the Falfaff or something.
i sat next to a chatty Dutch chap who is in the sugar business. it makes all the difference if someone is happy to conversate with you when you are dining alone.
he kindly took this rear portrait of me. my head is very bald:
here is the bar from the outside:
my new favouritist bar in the world ever
if you are in brussels and want to go to a bar which is just completely bohemium (don’t like the word, but there’s no other way to describe it) go here. it’s just a few second walk from the grand-place and is so completely laid back.
go up to the first or second floor if you want to sit on a seriously beat up sofa and daydream the night away in the glooming junk-shop interior
enticing enough for you ?
pity i only found it on my last night here
grooming mitten
just the box.
