In June there was a trip to Eindhoven in Holland to celebrate the 5th anniversary of the Erste Nederlandse Snorrenclub, and the annual "Fiesta del Sol". In fact, although there was plenty of Fiesta, there wasn't a lot of Sol until the Sunday, but the welcome from the ENS was as warm as ever.

Saturday was a quiet day, spent largely screwing one's eardrums back into place. There was, however, quite a sudden storm which blew everything not actually nailed down to the pavement sky high. Bodies running everywhere - looked for all the world like a scene out of one of the better
disaster movies. Result, nearly every bar in town had a resident moustache for the afternoon.The highlight of the week-end, the ENS reception on Saturday evening, was fully up to the standard we have come to expect from our friends in the European clubs - pleasant surroundings, an excellent buffet, a good band and a graceful belly-dancer. A most enjoyable evening and our thanks went to our Snorrenclub hosts, the ENS.
On Sunday morning there was a meeting to discuss the projected "Euromoustache Federation", and in the afternoon a visit to Neuen, a village famous for its Vincent van Gogh associations and whose centenary it was that year.
And so we boarded the appropriate form of transport and returned home after a memorable weekend.
