3 last week, 3 this week
So keep on moving, moving, moving your feet
Keep on shuf-shuf-shuffling to this ghost dance beat
Just keep on walking down never ending streets

Actually this does happen in Belgium. And my x Mother in Law loved it. However, they did get a lot of coupons for different shops and they use them, which we don't seem to do in this country. They all come in a sealed carrier bag, and they are all (or most) dropped in boxes at the end of the driveways. Not through letter boxes like we do in this country. Would be quite nice if we made everyone get these boxes at the end of their drives and banned all those stupid letter boxes that are at the bottom of the doors :dance

Yeah, but they've always been crackers on the continent. :Very Happy
British households detest the shyte with a passion, something I can never see changing.
