A LA MEMOIRE DE MADAME JANINE FOUREZ (1926-2013)

Mrs Fourez was my upstairs neighbour.
She passed away on January 22.
We lived in the same house during the last 12 years.
She will be missed!

I did this celebration in my flat at the same time her body was cremated in Uccle Brussels.
Her ashes will travel to France.

My sincere condolences to her daughter and 2 sons and the rest of the family. (GV)

Frank Dingenen (a friend, actor, writer, singer, comedian, TV personality in Belgium) and me in a playful mood. Photo was taken by Matthias, tha waiter at The Grelha. I altered the photo for a self portrait mail art project in Trinidad & Tobago. We both like selfmockery and mockery a lot.

Ahmed

A neighbor who shares my enthusiasm for the houses of the neighborhood. He found this blog an excellent idea and was keen on posing for me. Invited me also to a cup of coffee. Great spontaneous encounter on the street.
