Dear Malcolm,

Yes that bar is still going strong! It's on the Grand Place and is called the "Roi d'Espagne". And yes, the stuffed horse and inflated pigs' bladders are still there. Sounds like the weekend might require a visit there!

Best regards,

mooman

P.S. (for 'Spaw as I know you're bound to comment!) Stuffed horses and inflated pigs' bladders in bars, little pissants as city mascots, hats that are not hats and other things surreal and wacky (e.g. Les Gilles de Binche), not to mention 500 varieties of beer, are among the reasons why I am still living here after 10 years! mooman
