From UK to Belgium and Back

I have visited our Belgian neighbours across the North Sea more than sixty times over the last twenty years. Each time I love this little country and its people just that little bit more. Taking the ferry from Hull on each occasion, I have explored the Province of Flanders by car, bus, train and tram.

This little book provides anecdotes and memories of these trips both at sea on the ferries and in the hinterland of the Port of Zeebrugge. Flanders isn't just about the beautiful medieval city of Bruges. Cast your net a little wider and visit Ostend, Sluis, Antwerp and Ypres.

If you like chocolate, beer, chips, mussels and friendly people you will love Flanders as much as I do. But don't take my word for it – go there!
