British Trash Mags
I do like to scan the headlines of trashy magazines though in newsagencies, if only to keep up with names of the day.

Who the hell are Chanelle and Ziggy?

They really do need a girl
I saw this piece of graffiti though which I think sums up the reason for most of the rubbish graffiti in the world. It's usually done by young men who just need to get laid.

3 Coffees, 3 Countries, 1 Day
So having 3 coffees isn't as difficult as it sounds. I started the day in Luxembourg, got the train to Namur and Dinant in Belgium, then finished the day in Maastricht in the Netherlands. If I really wanted to I could have made it 4 coffees in 4 countries as Aachen on the German border is not far away from Maastricht.
I have already done 4 coffees in 4 countries once before though. Lake Constance in Central Europe is bordered by Germany, Switzerland, and Austria, and Lichtenstein is not far away. Using the efficient rail network of that part of the world it is very easy to visit all of them in a day (with a bus trip to Lichtenstein as they have no passenger rail service).
