I don't remember the timing but I do remember watching it with flatmates in London and by 1970 I was out of UK & living for a while in Belgium. Amazing that we never met :-) How do we know....?! -- Sacha South Devon |

A good question! All I remember is that we lived in a tiny hamlet of 4 or 5 houses, up a cart track outside Brussels and I think I recall driving to work in Brussels each morning on the Chaussée de Charleroi. I can't remember the name of the hamlet but I do know it was on the very edge of the battlefield of Waterloo. The monument was just visible, iirc. Maybe in the Nivelles direction? We lived there a year or two after a disastrous fire in Innovation in the Rue Neuf(?) where many lost their lives, I believe. -- Sacha South Devon |
