So ... Jacques Brel, René Magritte and.....

Jean Marie Pfaff :goober:

Naaah ....

Pieter Paul Rubens, Toots Tielemans

Wadayasay?

Kevin De Bruyne, Thibaut Courtois, Christian Benteke.

All from Genk, my French speaking Scottish soulmate.

Adolphe Sax, Victor Horta:-)

Eddy Merckx.

 

 

Only 5?

What do you do at school?

I said FAMOUS, not present day "celebrities" here today and gone tomorrow.

 

So, Adolphe Sax counts, as the designer/inventor of the saxophone, as does the innovative architect Victor Horta, but none of these footballers count.  If people have still heard of them in 50 years time, they may count ...

Eddy Merckx.

 

 

Only 5?

What do you do at school?

 

 

I plucked the number from the air.  But none of your nominees count - they have not yet passed the test of time.

 

P.S. well maybe I'll give you Eddy Merckxx

Well ... Horta, Sax and Rubens.

Rubens is quite famous you know :-)

Leopold the first!

 

Damm.

 

Do you remember what you learned about Leopold the first, Moi?

Hercule Poirot

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Aha!

 

Thank you, BelgradeCFC!

Tintin.

 

De smurfen.

 

 

And very important.

 

Leo Baekeland.

 

No Leo Baekeland. No pleasure things for the ladies.

Uhm?

 

 

Moi?

And beer of course.

 

The guy that invented Belgian Beer.

 

What kind of beer, do you prefer Beerqueen?

Friendly greetings from Genk!

 

Also gone.

With the wind.

 

I wish you all a nice evening, Chelsea fans and visitors!

 

Friendly greetings from Genk!

I'll give you Tintin - though really it should be Hergé - and les Schtroumpfs.

 

 Leo Baekeland is good - why would he be a pleasure thing for ladies?  He's no hunk!

 

Are there any Belgian hunks you can name?

 

and P.S. Don;t say Jean Claude Van Damme - I have never ever met a woman who fancied him.

Edited July 30, 201312 yr by moi

Counts me, myself and I, moi?

 

And Stingray.

 

And ...

 

 

 

Uhm. Tomorrow.

Have a nice evening, Moi!

When you say "Tomorrow" do you mean "See you tomorrow"?

 

You have a nice evening too, Krc.

 

But NO, you don't count as a famous Belgian.

I'm not sure whether I'm going to regret answering......but I usually drink British ale - bitter.  My favourite at the mo is Shropshire Gold and London Pride plus Timothy Taylor's Landlord - but I don't suppose you will have heard of them.  I also like Belgian beer though - unlike most continental beer it actually has some flavour - so I like Chimay, Hoegardden, Leffe etc.  But it's a bit strong to drink too many of!

Stella Artois is a good beer.

Friendly greetings from Genk!

 

 

 

 

I thought you ask for a Belgian hunk, Moi!

 

That's a good Belgian list, Beerqueen!

A 'donkere Leffe' is a very good choise. An adult beer. And a funny one. With four or five, we speak the same language.

 

Stella. Indeed, BelgradeCFC.

Is there a Stella-pub in Belgrade, BelgradeCFC?

 

 

 

Dear Mr Abramovich!

Dear Mr Mourinho!

 

I'm just a soul, whose intentions are good.

So, please, please don't let me be mis understood!

 

But, I want to propose Zakaria Bakkali.

This guy is so good!

He 's 17 and a real phenomenon.

 

This is the moment, Mr Abramovich and Mr Mourinho. Man U and Man C are interested, but it would be good for Chelsea and the Belgian National Team if he could play and learn, together with his friend Charly Musonda in Chelsea. This guy must wear blue and white.

 

So, if it's possible, Mr Abramovich and Mr Mourinho,

please, please, please ... 

 

It will be fun!

 

 

Sincerely

 

Krc-fan

 

 

(ps. I hope there are no mistakes in my english, Moi. Can you check, please? Thank you.)

While you are at it - include Youri Tielemans.

Holding midfielder, 16 and bossed the Anderlecht midfield in the opening game of the season.

Maybe even a bigger talent than Bakkali imo.

Friendly greetings from Genk!

 

Yep. Correct, Stingray.

Youri is also a special one.

 

There must be something in our beer!

Unbelievable. Our youth.

 

Have you seen Zakaria yesterday, Stingray?

 

I saw many orgasms in Eindhoven.
