(actually Brussels tells you to take off your shoes but you dont need to 
)after security there is extra security with weird questions i.e. do you have a phone...yes...though they didnt want to see it...they just swabbed my hand baggage and put the swab in a machine (drugs or explosives I guess)
thought I saw a Whisky bargain...2 litre bottles of Famous Grouse for GBP20....the offer was only for people travelling outside the Euro zone....bizarre....otherwise I can buy it cheaper in Belgium
