Nakharar Posted April 1, 2005 Report Share Posted April 1, 2005 I think it is brilliant. It reminds me of the Terracotta army of Emperor whats-his-name in Xian. What a well thought out and nice way to remind people of their excesses. By the way the only good thing about Brussels is the Flemish inner city and the leafy and luxurious suburbs.

Nakharar Posted April 1, 2005 Report Share Posted April 1, 2005 How sad that this was once was a proud city, but now is a French island within a Flemish sea infested with North Africans. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
