Two Belgians, one Portagee, that means we're winning

TIP: STAY AWAY FROM RED VIRUS!

 

agreed ZA : the more we are the merrier.

 

In the time I was gone here I really missed Za Rodinu

 

whichever you please

If studying WW2 tought me anything than it's definately the absurdity of 'ethnic' differences and extreme nationalism...Belgian all the way

my girl's from Wallonia (btw her grandparents used to harbor US soldiers during the Ardennes offensive-sweet stories!)
i'm from Antwerp, and when i'm not in Gabon, we live in Brussels...beat that for cosmopolitanism!

 

Yup, pretty much, heh.

 

All right

yeah Belgium is real crap right now on political surface but where hanging on there.

anyhows another Welcome here.

 

Piron if you wish to do so I believe many of us would love to hear what you have to say about your girlfriend's grandparents in the Ardennes. You could open a special thread for that.

 

Hey Piron, wealcome!!! I drove through brussles last summer when i visited GErmany, France, Switzerland, Italy Beligum and Amsterdam. Had lunch there. Wish i could've stayed longer, but oh well, the best laid plans often go awry. Once again welcome!

I'm from Antwerp too! Van waar ben je juist?

 

Good lord! never seen a site where you get such warm welcomes, u guys are awesome. Although i could guess that the maturity here is quite higher than the average gaming forum I frequent (btw company of heroes is great!)

Well I guess I already have three topics in store for u guys now if I add the grandparents stories. My own pops had some about V1s dropping in Antwerp and he was in the tiny Belgian army that got stomped in 1940. Unfortunately he passed away 5 years ago. My girl's grandma has some very fond memories of the us soldiers and she's still alive and kicking, too much to elaborate here so expect a thread soon!

een beetje overal: geboren in Edegem, jeugd in Wilrijk, tienerjaren in Kapellen, even aan UA gestudeerd....As you can see I'm quite the restless type

 

Too bad all I can speak is English and grade 9 French ;| and little Ukrainian

 

Dont be so quick thank us yet mate, this is just a welcome. It all goes down hill from here!

 

Hey if any of our Antwerp friends have some "now and then" pics from that city I would love to see those posted too. I've always had a weak spot for this place.

 

Piron, you should watch out for this guy and Slava anic: Eeeeeeek *runs away*


Wilrijk, dan ken je de Bunkers? Park den Brandt?!

 

Hear, Hear!
Do you have OF or just the original?

 

You are fully qualified to say that!

 

I'm a coh veteran soldier on tour of duty since the game was first released so I have both OF and vcoh

skipper the now and then photo's will have to wait 'till when I get back (probably in June) , I have a bunch of them that I could scan for ya but all my books are back home

ahh thx for the warning sturm, so that's how it works here, u butter up a new recruit to sign up promising heaven, then once he's in boot camp all hell breaks loose huh

and no worries, already digging in my own memory to tell u guys the grandparent's stories..

en yep ik ken den brandt, woonde op een paar honderd meters ervandaan...
