[Heeplist] There's gonna be a Heepvention in Belgium

[Bob Winward]

Hi Staf, you did meet Susan in London 2003.  That was the show at the
Astoria where on the Marque outside it said Uriah Heep underneath "Gay
Britney Night"

This time, I will not make the same mistake of waiting too long for a hotel
room. I ended up in Spain without one.  Are the rooms as tiny as the ones in
London?

Stela sounds good, but I really like Hoegarden.
