Interesting! How do you keep your maps from being flooded with bogus community changes?

The Amsterdam chicks are usually foreigners. When I lived there in the 90s there seemed to be a lot of French girls. I recall one I was close to who looked like Courtney Cox.

The Dutch girls I knew were all big. Big in the shoulder width, like a farmer girl. Kind of scary to date someone who could beat you up!

Anyway, I left TomTom and am back in Antwerp. I didn't want to live there anymore for a number of reasons - it's expensive (like London rental rates!), too many tourists getting in your way and it's a dirty place (though it's been cleaned up in the last few years).

Shame there's no Burger King or KFC in Belgium :-( Have to live with MacD's and "Quick" (a French burger chain). We don't even have Subway in this second world country...

There's a Churasco Steak House on one of the main streets in Antwerp, try that:)
I know what you mean when you say they have broad shoulders... We had a dutch trainer(ess) back when I played waterpolo. She could have wrestled a hippo, in water.
She favored girls, too.

The best place for steak in town is "Estro Armonico". Fantastic (even my Texan mate was impressed).

If you like spare ribs, "Amadeus" has an all you can eat. It's always busy!
