Martin and Mark have crossed the channel and made their way through the Netherlands to finally reach Brussels yesterday. So far they have raised just short of a fantastic £2,000 for Birmingham Settlement. Martin has been faithfully blogging on their progress, so check out what he has to say about the journey:
