and is it possible to have a complete list of the 19 municipalities (or zip codes) in every dot of Brussel :?: i.e.
NE dot: Evere (1140)
NW: Jette (1090)
SE: Auderghem (1160)
SW: Forest (1190)

You can use the dots map for that:
NW NE
SW SE

You have to do some consolidating though. A lot of different ways to enter a city :roll:

I hope that this is the right part to ask it, but how common are old design :note-10: in :flag-be: ?
Otherwise, I'd like to take two with me, but if there is a very high chance that they won't survive, I'll probably spend them somewhere else.

So is it worth it? To spend my old ones there?

Just the URL, or a "track me!" request? (I haven't done it very often, and the notes with just the URL weren't entred again.....)

If I use a track-request, would you advise a general one in English, or should I also write it in French and Dutch on it, since they are the offical languages in :flag-be: ? I know about German, but I don't consider it to be as important as Dutch and French....

When I do that (only on 'rare' and 'older' bills, so less than 1% of all my bills), I just write the URL, but it's never ever been a success! :roll: I'd suggest English given the amount of tourists in Brussels and the fact that most Belgians (especially Flemings) would understand it.

I've just had a look at Google-Maps (on my dotmap). If it is correct, the BNP-ATM at the Amerikalei seems to be in the left Antwerpen-dot, so we wouldn't have to cross the river. If you have a good view on Antwerpen, well we can do so, but honestly spoken there doesn't seem to be a lot of town on the left side.

the dot would not be that of the atm but the center of antwerp ... and u have a point the left bank is not a ... sight seeing place
