Port of Zeebrugge

Zeebrugge has been one of my favourite places since our first visit on a hot day in September 2006. I am just sorry that I shall not see it this summer, we have visited the port each year since our first visit on that hot day. What would I give to go there again this summer.

For all you Zeebrugge fans, enjoy this superb official video advertising the port:

Litterbugs

The title "Litterbugs" is a little too friendly, however I could not think up a more suitable title and stay in the margins of acceptable language!

Yesterday afternoon we went down to the front in Scarborough to get some fish and chips for our tea. We bought fish and chips from the always-excellent Winking Willie's and ate them outside.

We were not alone in eating our fish and chips outside. Near to Winking Willie's there are some benches and a few litter bins just a few feet from the benches. However, even the close proximity of bins to benches did not prevent the over-sized swine who had chosen to sit on the benches to fill their disgusting faces from leaving behind the remains of their food and also the cartons which went with it. The filthy swine just left all their litter on the benches, they were obviously just too stupid, too idle or too mucky to bother putting it in the bins provided. I dread to think what filthy state their houses are in. They should be tracked down, brought back to their litter and forced to eat every last mouthful of what they left behind.

What must visitors to our country think when they see what filthy swine many home-grown tourists are? I make no apology for what I have said, I would not insult pigs by housing such filthy trash with them.

Scarborough welcomes clean visitors who do not live like trash, we do not welcome litterbugs who are just too idle to get off their over sized rear ends and put their rubbish where it belongs.
