Jordan reports on the freezing cold conditions, shares photos from a recent day-trip to Brussels and then notes:

"Fawlty toured to the Schalm Theatre in Veldhoven, in the south of Holland. Great audiences, lots of laughs ...

"Saturday night was a fundraiser for a children's charity which went very well and some much-needed money was raised. Next week we play in Utrecht for a solid eight shows."

Jordan and his dining experience cast members have previously toured Ireland, England and Australia.
