I'm reminded (probably because of circumstances in my own life) of a fragment of a song...
She took off a silver locket, she said remember me by this. She put her hand in my pocket, I got a keepsake and a kiss. And in the roar of dust and diesel, I stood and watched her walk away. I could have caught up with her easy enough, but something must have made me stay. And the big wheel keep on turning, neon burning, up above. And I'm high on the world. Come on and take a low ride with me girl On the tunnel of love And now I'm searching through these carousels and the carnival arcades. Searching everywhere from Steeplechase to Palisades. In any shooting gallery where promises are made. To rockaway rockaway, from Cullercoats and Whitley Bay, out to rockaway. And girl it looks so pretty to me just like it always did Like the spanish city to me when we where kids Girl it looks so pretty to me just like it always did Like the spanish city to me when we where kids

As kcurie used to say (where's that geezer nowadays?), we really should meet one day.
Next time you're in Europe, let's organise a mini-ET-NL meet as I can always find an excuse to go that way...
