Come on, Tigerlily, you just happened to be at the 'wrong' side of Belgium. [Wink]
You have a bad impression about this little country cause it rained and you met unfriendly Belgians.
Time to come back... [Big Grin]
I never drink alcohol, just a glass of champagne on New Year's Eve to celebrate. [Cool]
However I was surprised to see Luxembourg ranked on top.

Well then you really need to take a drive south to Wallonia. It's really bad but I won't go further here into details. I understand you might get offended. [Wink]

I don't easily get offended [Wink] , don't worry.
We seldom go to Wallonia, we don't feel united with the french-speaking half of our country.
That's why we did not have a government for 7 months (so many disputes on political level).
Personally, I do not even know anyone from Wallonia.

Because I remember my life in London: Where I worked there were so many pubs!! [Wink]

I also was surprised I couldn't find Germany on the list.

yup! Officially it's called Dutch [Wink] (language of education) but it sounds different than the Dutch spoken in the Netherlands. We use exactly the same words though.

Try Tourain ( Doornik) it's a very old little town, with nice shops and resurants and friendly people. Only 15 km from the language-border and nobody speaks Flemish...
