Oh, help! We've lost Übereill! I got a card from him from India! I told him to stay off that weird looking tobacco that he got from that hooligan! I think I'm gonna send him an e-mail that we are in Gent right now. Can someone help me out here? @ Shan I think I've found some legends about the city, but sadly there are no hunted castles here. But I've tried to find some stories that you would like. I hope I do the translation well enough, I used Babel Fish, but it doesn't translate very much.
It happened in 1535 in a small street, now called the Crossstreet. On a stormy night there were two assassins in that street, keen on robbing and assassination. Divine providence ensured however in a horrible manner that their cruel plans were thwarted. A bright lightning broke through the sky and chopped the cross of the St. John's church. The cross came down and crushed both thiefes. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/badsmile2.gif" alt="" />
The "Decapitionbridge" got her cruel and bloody name during the reign of Count Louis from Male. Two noblemen, a father and his son, had insulted the count. The count wanted to have some fun of his own and suggested that one of them could stay alive if he wanted to decapite the head of the other one. Eventually the son declared himself to give the final stroke. But again divine providence intervened and made the sword fly out of the handle. But the divine profidence didn't forsee the fact that both men would be soo shocked by the intervening that they both died from mortal fear. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/eek.gif" alt="" />
Pfieeuuw...I sure hope these legends are understandable for everyone. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/stupid.gif" alt="" />
