5Streets Leiden: 08_07
http://5streetsleiden.blogspot.com/2007_08_01_archive.html
August 6, 2007. Saturday night I was part of a new initiative, taken by Leiden sculpture Koen de Vries. And his wife Mirja. During four summer nights they have cooked for and entertained 10 guests. Ten people that don't know each other, all together for Summer encounters. Through a friend of mine I heard of this and we decided to give it a go. The worst that could happen was not liking any of the people there. (for some reason I wasn't too afraid that the food, all vegetarian, would be awful).

5 Streets Brighton and Hove. Thursday, February 22, 2007. It's life Jim, but not as we know it. I thought it was about time I raised this blog from the depths. First up, thank you for the comments: for some reason I've only just discovered them having just switched over to Blogger 2.0, or whatever they're calling it. If any Brighton bloggers would like to co-host with me, I'm open to that, leave a comment here and I'll get back to you. As I don't think I mentioned it here before, Amanda's site. It Has A Y.

5 Streets Brighton and Hove: January 2006
http://5streetsbrighton.blogspot.com/2006_01_01_archive.html
5 Streets Brighton and Hove. Monday, January 30, 2006. The area where I live has a number of small mews. Roads Mews in this case are tiny roads, usually cobbled, squeezed between two buildings. Some of them are straight out of 'Minder', slightly shady looking geezers taking cars of unknown provenance to be fixed up in backstreet garages. These tiny mews streets are also becoming popular as haunts for artists' studios; quiet and tucked away from the world, they offer an ideal place to work. I live in what...

http://5streetsleiden.blogspot.com/2007_04_01_archive.html
April 22, 2007. Where to spend the summer (1). Recently discovered, but quickly developing into one of my favourite outdoor places in Leiden is de Zijlpoort. Although I've never really been inside, the outdoor part is great for the kind of summery weather that we're having at the moment. On the other side of the gate is another recommendation: Restaurant Wessels. Good food, in a nice but not too formal setting, with good staff. Posted by 5streetsleiden @ 7:36 PM. April 12, 2007. A few of my favorites.

5Streets Leiden: 05_07
http://5streetsleiden.blogspot.com/2007_05_01_archive.html
May 7, 2007. Apparently this statue, that is called the Venus of Leiden and that can be found in "Het Plantsoen" has caused quite a stir in Leiden. We discovered it yesterday evening, on a walk through our neighbourhood. It at first was placed there, without approval by the city council, by a group of artists called the Kunst Uitschot Team. I quite like it, it has something robust and makes for a nice change in the park. Posted by Cooks @ 8:57 AM. One long time resident, one newbie discover their town.
