So long my friend

A very good and special friend of mine has left Brussels to return to his native London.

For those of you who met James will be reminded of his humour, generosity, DJing, drinking capabilities, smile, spikey hair, kindness, helpfulness, sarcasism, wit, humour, help, superb Usher, Man of the Match award winner at my wedding, Stag Night organiser, dirty flat, PS2 competitiveness, but most of all, his spirit of fun!

So as a thank you to James, I present this photo of him arriving back home showing me his army uniform ...... Hmmmm.

Good Luck James in your new adventure, you will be long remembered by your Friends here in Belgium.

Can I invite all of you to put a small thank you on this blog so that he can read it? Thanks!
