Lemmens Institute gig

Fantastic concert tonight at Steve's old place of education...Lemmensinstituut, Leuven. We played our old trick of the three of us talking in Flemish & Steve only in English, and then at the end of the gig Steve 'revealed' himself as Belgian... marvellous... especially good as he told them he was a fellow Lemmens Old Boy [not sure this is the phrase he would use]; the cheering did not stop for a long while! The audience were tremendous and enthusiastic; ages ranged from 10 to 90... amongst them were, naturally, Steve's family and friends and also two of Cantabile's great friends who had travelled over from The Netherlands, Gertie & Gaby - lovely to catch up with their news after the concert.
As ever, the trip over by Eurostar was a total joy... more please... less time at aeroports.
Ah yes... next stop LHR on way to Canada...
