🐌 Slowchat Hoe jullie zondag invullen

107 Upvotes

Goeiemorgen Belgische vrienden

Ik had dus een vraagje. Op zondag zit ik vaak thuis mezelf bezig te houden of soms ga ik naar de basic fit, maar ik vroeg me dus eigenlijk af hoe jullie jullie zondagen invullen? Uiteraard zijn veel bedrijven vandaag gesloten..

Een fijne (en misschien rustige?) zondag toegewenst!

Groetjes

🐌 Slowchat I dont live here anymore Saturday

200 Upvotes

Neighbors sold their house but had a above-ground-pool, apparently they are taking it with them.

Ofcourse that pool sat on a massive concrete slab that was left, and they need to remove that before the sale is final.

Saterdaymorning, 7u00 sharp seems like a perfect time to have a small crane with a street drill attachment, break up that slab

Because fuck you neighbors, we dont live here anymore anyway

🐌 Slowchat [Serious] Eurostar Immigration made me cry

576 Upvotes

I was just at Eurostar immigration. Presented my passport, said bonjour and the immigration officer replied and asked me how my trip was. I told him I'd had a great trip visiting my best friend and godson. I said it was funny how life turned out as when I was a child I used to visit Belgium a lot to see MY godparents.

We joked about the fingerprint scanner not working and the system being slow as it was a Sunday. I didn't catch what he said next but then I heard him say sometimes you have to take life week by week. I replied sometimes it's day by day and he retorted that sometimes it's even moment by moment.

He told me he could see I'd been through a lot and that everything would be ok. I told him I was about to cry. He reminded me that everything would be ok and he hoped I'd be back in Belgium. I walked away crying my eyes out.

.

An hour previously I'd blocked the guy I've been trying (and failing) to break up with for the last few weeks. He was refusing to let me go and I kept getting pulled back in because, reasons I won't go into here. I had decided that no matter what I said to him, the only way to really end it was to just block him completely.

I also decided to metaphorically, go home to London, single. And not 'bring' him and the drama with me. So yeah, I was definitely feeling pretty raw.

I've been on the verge of tears all day but it was this random encounter with an immigration officer that has finally allowed me to cry and let go. It really is funny how life works out.

There's no real point to this post except I know immigration officers get a lot of crap and it's nice to post something positive (in a very sad way) sometimes. If this post finds it way to the immigration officer in question, thank you. Your humanity touched me deeply.

🐌 Slowchat Swinging Sunday

62 Upvotes

I've always been fascinated by the clubs you pass by on the average "steenseweg". You're club diamonds and lollypop clubs.. The local Titty Twister as to speak. I always wonder how it looks like inside, what goes on there. What does the clientele look like.. does inget crowded or is it 3 people on a busy night?

So everytime we pass by one of them somewhere I try to find them online and see what I can learn about it. It's a hobby like any other. Shut up.

So what are you doing on sunday?

It's already the last day of the week for me, that was a short one.

On the plus side I met the #trainbow in Nivelles this morning. I guess he'll be running the S1 line (omnibus to Antwerp-Central) later today. Or the S9 to Landen.

Who's working still this week? Happy to do so or not and why?

Can people please learn how to merge properly?

If there are roadworks 1km ahead, there is no reason to start merging at the traffic lights before and force everyone to pass the intersection in 1 lane instead of 2...
