17:00 Jeg kigger på Facebook, og jeg ser at vores ældste barnebarn i
København, Josie sammen med hendes hold har lige vundet den svømning relæ i
Gladsaxe-svømmehallen – hurra! Vores svigersøn, Ed, siger at Josies rolle var
det afgørende element i holdets sejr – hurra, kom så, Josie!
18:00 Vi spiser aftensmad og derefter bruger aftenen på at se lidt
fjernsyn, og lytter til radio.
De viser to interessante dokumentarfilm på BBC4. Den første handler om en
tur gennem det sydlige Frankrig, som et ægtepar, Timothy West og Prunella
Scales, de berømte skuespillere, tager på den berømte Canal du Midi med pram.
Denne kanal var verdens første (og blev bygget næsten et århundrede før de
første kanaler i Storbritannien). De franske myndigheder ville få både og små
skibe til at kunne rejse mellem Middelhavet og Atlanterhavet, uden at blive
angrebet af de sørøvere, der holdt til i Gibraltarstrædet – du godeste, sikke
en verden!
Den anden dokumentarfilm handler om landsbyer i grevskabet Aberdeenshire,
i Nordvestskotland. Programmets værtinde er Penelope Keith, den berømte
skuespillerinde.
21:00 De viser de 5. og 6. afsnit af ”Trapped”, den mørke nordiske
krimiserie, men det bryder Lois sig ikke ret meget om, så jeg optager den på
vhs, og vi lytter til radio i stedet; gamle komedier fra 1990’erne. Vi glider
over i søvnen – zzzzz! Vi bliver gamle – det er der ikke nogen tvivl om!!!
22:00 Vi vågner op og går i seng – zzzz!!!
04:00 Jeg står tidligt op og kigger lidt på internettet. Jeg ser, at
Sarah, vores yngste datter, Francis, hendes mand, og deres 2,5-årige
tvillinger, fortsætter deres biltur langs kysten nord for Perth. De kørte
gennem en ørken til byen Denham (befolkning på 607 beboere!), der ligger i
Shark Bay (Haj Bugt) – du godeste! Pas på, når du svømmer i havet, folkens!!!!
Udsigten fra den campingsplads, hvor
Sarahs familie opholder sig
06:00 Jeg har ondt i lænden i dag – pokkers! Jeg spiser to stykke toast
og tager to Ibuprofen tabletter.
08:00 Jeg spiser morgenmad og begynder at se den 5. afsnit af ”Trapped”,
den mørke nordiske krimi-serie. Dramaet er endnu mørkere, end normalt, fordi
lavinen har medført en strømafbrydelse i den isolerede islandske by – uha! Det er endnu sværere at identificere
figurerne og skelne alle de mænd der går med skæg – du godeste! Også virker
beboernes mobiltelefoner ikke længere – uha (igen)!
Sigurdhurs far,
der med vilje brugte en eksplosion for at skabe en lavine på en kontrollet måde,
dør af skader fra den.
Sigurdhurs far dør af skader fra den lavine,
han startede – uha!
Nogen (måske hans kone, som han misbruger) rammer borgmesteren (Hrofn) i
hovedet med en skovl, låser ham i hans skur, og sætter ild til det.
Metallisk klang!!! Nogen rammer borgmesteren
(Hrofn) i hovedet med en skovl i hans skur, mens han arbejder ved sit
skrivebord !!!! Men hvem er angriberen – hans kone måske????
den mystiske angriber sætter ild til borgmesterens skur –
uha!!!! Farvel og tillykke, hr borgmester!!!
Byens teenagere holder en vild fest i det offentlige svømmebassin.

mørke svømmebassin – sikke en redelighed!
Færgens danske kaptajn og hans første officer forsøger at generobre de
to afrikanske søstre, som den afdøde litauiske menneskerssmugler, Jonas,
medbragte til Island på sin varevogns bagsæde – uha! Sikke et rod !!!!
Det er interessant at se, at islandske mennesker for de meste ikke
ligner ret meget de typiske skandinaviske mennesker, man ser i Norge, Sverige
og Danmark. I mange tilfælde er de ikke
ret høj og de har tendens til at være mere mørkhårede. Jeg har læst, at de har
en masse keltisk blod i deres familietræer. Vikingerne havde for vane at
kidnappe keltiske kvinder og medbringe dem til Island – uha, stakkels
kvinder!!!!
09:00 Lois står op, men hun har et problem med synet – et stribet plet
foran øjnene. Hun sætter sig på sofaen og prøver at slappe af. Problemet
forsvinder efter 30 minutter, men hun beslutter, at det ville være farligt at
køre til Tewkesbury i dag for at deltage i sin kirkes 2 gudstjenester. Hun
beslutter at se sin Pride & Prejudice dvd i stedet – en klog beslutning!
Du godeste, vi er to gamle vrag i dag – det er der ikke nogen tvivl om
!!!!
13:00 Vi spiser frokost og derefter går jeg i seng og tager mig en lang
lur – zzzzz!!!!!
15:00 Jeg står op og vi slapper af med en kop te på sofaen.
16:00 Jeg læser nogle sider af min danske roman, ”Klinkevals”. Simon er blevet frigivet fra det lokale
sindssygehospital, hvor han i nogle år boede, og er i gang med at vænne sig til
at bo hjemme igen. Han beskæftiger sig med de huslige opgaver, mens hans kone,
Juliane, går ud på arbejde hver dag. Det
er Juliane, der kalder skud i dette ægteskab – det er der ikke nogen tvivl om
!!!! I dag får Simon besøg af sin tidligere chef, ”Thomsen”, der opfordrer ham
til at genoptage sit job på trykkeriet.

Saturday, 02.27.2016 at 1630 till Sunday, 02.28.2016 at 1629
17:00 I'm looking at Facebook and I see that our eldest granddaughter in
Copenhagen, Josie, together with her team have just won the swimming relay in
Gladsaxe-swimming pool - hurrah! Our son-in-law, Ed, says that Josie's role was
a crucial element in the team's victory - hurrah, go Josie!
18:00 We have dinner and then spend the evening watching TV and listening
to the radio.
They show two interesting documentaries on BBC4. The first is about a trip
through the south of France, which a married couple, Timothy West and Prunella
Scales, the famous actors, take on the famous Canal du Midi by barge. This
canal was the world's first (and was built almost a century before the first
canals in the UK). The French authorities wanted to get boats and small ships
to travel between the Mediterranean and the Atlantic without being attacked by
the pirates who lived in the Straits of Gibraltar - my goodness, what a world!
The second documentary is about the villages in the county of
Aberdeenshire, in north-west Scotland. The program's presenter is Penelope
Keith, the famous actress.
21:00 They show the 5th and 6th episodes of "Trapped", the dark
Scandinavian crime series, but Lois does not care for it that much, so I record
it on vhs, and we listen to the radio instead; old comedies from the 1990s. We
drift into sleep - zzzz! We are growing old - of that, there is no doubt !!!
22:00 We wake up and go to bed - zzzz (again) !!!
4:00 I get up early and take a look at the internet. I see that Sarah, our
youngest daughter, Francis, her husband, and their 2 and a half year old twins,
continue their road trip along the coast north of Perth. They drove through the
desert to the city of Denham (population of 607 residents!), located in Shark
Bay (Shark Bay) - my goodness! Be careful when you swim in the ocean, folks
!!!!

staying
06:00 I have a painful lower back today - darn! I eat two pieces of toast
and take two ibuprofen tablets.
8:00 I eat breakfast and start seeing the 5th episode of
"Trapped", the dark Scandinavian crime fiction series. The drama is
even darker than normal because the avalanche has caused a power outage in the
isolated Icelandic town - oh dear! It is even harder to identify the characters
and distinguish all the men who wear beards - my goodness! Also the residents'
mobile phones no longer work - bummer (again) !
Sigurdhurs father, dies of injuries from the avalanche he started - oh dear!
Someone (perhaps his wife, whom he abuses) hits Mayor Hrofn in the head with a shovel, locks him in his shed, and sets fire to it.
Clannnnggggg !!! Someone hits Mayor Hrofn
in the head with a shovel in his shed while he works at his desk !!!! But who
is the attacker - his wife maybe ????
the mysterious attacker sets fire to the mayor's shed
- oh dear!!!! Farewell and good-luck, Mr. Mayor !!!
The town's teenagers hold a wild party in the public swimming pool.
city teenagers hold a wild party in the dark swimming pool - such goings-on!
The ferry's Danish captain and his first officer try to recapture the two
African sisters whom the deceased Lithuanian people-smuggler, Jonas, brought to
Iceland on his van's back seat - oh dear! What a mess !!!!
It is interesting to see that the Icelandic people for the most part do not
look very much like the typical Scandinavian people you see in Norway, Sweden
and Denmark. In many cases, they are not very tall and they tend to be more
dark-haired. I have read that they have a lot of Celtic blood in their family
trees. The Vikings had the habit of kidnapping Celtic women and bringing them
to Iceland - oh, poor women !!!!
09:00 Lois gets up, but she has a problem with her sight - a striped spot in
front of her eyes. She sits on the sofa and tries to relax. The problem
disappears after 30 minutes, but she decides that it would be dangerous to
drive to Tewkesbury today to attend her church's two services. She decides to see
her Pride & Prejudice DVD instead - a wise decision!
My goodness, we are two old wrecks today - there is no doubt !!!!
13:00 We eat lunch and then I go to bed and take a long nap - zzzzz !!!!!
15:00 I get up and we relax with a cup of tea on the sofa.
16:00 I read some pages of my Danish novel, "Klinkevals". Simon
has been released from the local mental hospital, where he lived for some
years, and he is starting to get used to living at home again. He deals with
the chores while his wife, Juliane, goes out to work every day. It's Juliane
who calls the shots in this marriage - of that, there is no doubt !!!! Today
Simon is visited by his former boss, "Thomsen", who urges him to
resume his job at the printing works.
