14th February. Antwerp Aberration.

"Platform 23, where is it though?"

"We've only got 4 mins."

"There! Look!" I say pointing to the overhead monitor.

"WHAT?"

"Wait. It'll come up with the stations in between... There! this one's going to Antwerp."

"BUT WE'RE ALREADY IN ANTWERP!!"

"Errr..."

The intervening twenty-five years since last visiting Antwerp seem to have exacted a hefty toll.

50% hair loss, memory, etc.

Antwerp. It's the new pseudonym for Alzheimers. No wonder the Belgians are an odd people.
