Birthday


Today would have been Hergé's 100rd birthday, which is a great event in Belgium, because he's one of the great cartoon artists here.

Belgacom Family Fun Day

On Sunday we went to the Belgacom Family Fun Day, every year Belgacom rents out an amusements park where you can go to for free, which is absolutely great, since it costs a lot to go there by yourself. And it was quite fun... here are some pics, taken with my mobile, they are not as good as the ones we took with the camera, but they'll have to do

Bruges

So, Icky and I went to Bruges on Wednesday, we got a discount from the women's weekly I'm subscribed to, we only had to pay €30 pp, which was a real bargain if you consider the hotel normally rates over €100 pp a night.

We didn't really think it through and took a small travelers backpack we use for similar trips, which looked kind of ridiculous in the classy hotel...

Nonetheless it was a brilliant escape from normal life, we were quite knackered and fell asleep before nine, but we woke up really early and enjoyed the life in the nice yet touristic city! I'd advise it to anyone!! :D

La vie en rose

What's the deal with pink these days!? It's like the bloody colour is turning up everywhere, is it not enough that it is the chosen colour for little girls and women who believe they are little girls... nooooooooooo, they started using it for men's clothes as well, probably because they believe it gives the men who wear it this image of the "new man".

Pink shoes, pink shirts, pink caps, pink coats, pink sweatshirts... aaaaaaaaaaaarrrggghhhh

Now they have a brand new line: pink laptops, pink nintendo DS lites, pink mobile phones, pink toaster, pink fridge, pink oven, pink water boiler, pink senseo

Do we really want to live in a Barbie world!?

personally I don't....
