President Bush's plane has landed in Belgium, and already the Police were out in force when I took the bus into town this evening to go for a couple of hours of disco (almost proper exercise, n'est-ce pas?)
Tomorrow I'm working in a meeting in the European Council's Justus Lipsus building, which always feels a bit more important than the Commission's meeting rooms. The Council has all the trappings of importance, with airline-style security and imposing, forbidding architecture. Logical really, as it's the place where the representatives of government (and sometimes also the heads of state themselves) meet.
I have a feeling that tomorrow, with Bush in town and both an EU and NATO summit happening, it's going to be a positive fortress!
So I'm going prepared - leaving early and taking with me every form of ID I can. Wish me luck!
