Never Go to Belgium, Well… Not Too Often

I say jokingly in my books “Never Go To Belgium” it was because I knew of a load of Neo-Nazis from there, they kind of warped my opinion of the place. The truckers are racist that also affected me.

In fact, I quite like Belgium, so do these blokes whose story is below, they nicked $50 million in diamonds at Brussels airport, brilliant eh? Why work when you can go to Belgium instead. Stuart Wilde www.stuartwilde.com

Heavily armed robbers made off with $50 million worth of diamonds in a massive heist at Brussels airport, the global dealers syndicate in Antwerp told AFP on Tuesday. Monday night’s robbery was “one of the biggest” ever, a spokeswoman for the Antwerp World Diamond Centre said, adding that the diamonds were “rough stones” being transported from Antwerp to Zurich. The raid saw the gang of thieves hit a security truck from a specialist Brinks security subsidiary as the gems were being loaded onto a Swiss aircraft bound for Zurich.
