It might be the safest time to visit Belgium?

Probably.

The pundits would have you believe that if you've ever wanted to visit France of Belgium, now's the time, as security is tighter than it's ever been and there's no lineup at any of the tourist spots.
I can't really fault that logic.

Yes, bad moment indeed for Brussels, but Ghent is only 30 minutes away from Brussels by train and it is much nicer to taste Belgian beers in Ghent ... On "normal" days there is a fast train every hour, and there are a lot of good hotels over here - Ibis, Sofitel, Mariott ...
Cheers,

Yes, we stayed in Ghent two years ago, and did a day-trip three years ago. But almost anywhere in Belgium is good for beer.

Ok, het ziet er goed uit, I mean it sounds goed ... I'm just checking if Ghent is popular enough. But you had really bad luck - perhaps next time everything will be normal here
Cheers,

My memories of my one and only visit to Ghent a few years back...
Morning - some work. Mostly talk.
Lunchtime - beers. Ended up pissed.
Afternoon - blur.
Late afternoon/early evening - more beers. Ended up completely sh*tfaced.
Dinner - sh*tloads more to drink, I think there was food because we were in a petty upmarket restaurant. Ended up completely and utterly hammered. Farked if I know who paid the bill - it wasn't me.
Next day

Just a pure sideways thought isn't 'Belgium' the most offensive word in the Galaxy according to Douglas Adams 'Hitchhikers Guide To The Galaxy'  , no offense to anyone, hope all our safe!

Just a thought: might be an idea to move the name into the body of the post - it may seem rather out of context on the front page list of lounge posts...

If you have an important point to make, don't try to be subtle or clever. Use a pile driver. Hit the point once. Then come back and hit it again. Then hit it a third time - a tremendous whack.

Just noticed the thumbs up is left-handed. We can't be having that, the rest of us civilised people need to boycott the site in protest at this obvious Liberalism brainwashing by Chris and the team.

Android / Samsung use a right-handed "thumbs-up" icon; everyone else uses a left-handed icon. Looks like Chris is voting with the majority.

There is no handed-ness.
Scientists have never found a structure in the brain* which correlates to a person using a specific hand.
It's all in their minds. Just start using your right hand like normal people.
* I marked this as a joke, but there really isn't anything in the brain that indicates handed-ness.

Not true. My second child, who is left handed, was using his left hand as primary hand the day we brought him home from the hospital.
I'm retired. There's a nap for that...
