18:00 Vores ældste datter, Alison, der bor i København sammen med Ed, sin mand, og deres 3 børn, sender mig
en sms. Familien kom i morges hjem efter en uges skiferie i Norge. Hun har
brugt dagen på at vaske tøj osv, for i morgen er en skoledag. Hun foreslår, at
vi skyper i morgen kl 20:30 dansk tid) – hurra!
18:30 Lois og jeg spiser aftensmad (vores traditionelle søndagsmiddag):
stegt lam, stegte kartofler, rosenkål og gulerødder (med mynte sauce – namnam!),
med bagt æbler til dessert – uhm!
21:00 Derefter bruger vi resten af aftenen på at se lidt fjernsyn. De
viser Krig og Fred (sjette afsnit af 6).
Dolokhov redder Pierre fra den franske hær,
der er i gang med at tilbagetrække sig fra Rusland – hurra! Rusland også bliver
reddet – hurra! Napoleon er ude på et skråplan – det er jeg ikke i tvivl om
!!!!
Marya og Nikolai finder sammen igen og gifter sig – hurra!
Natasha og Pierre finder sammen og gifter sig
– hurra!
Serien har en positiv slutning med en stor
familie-picnic i skovene! Hurra (igen)!
Hold kæft hvor Tolstoy var en sød mand – det ved
jeg med sikkerhed!!!
22:00 Vi går i seng. Jeg læser 8 sider af min sengetidbog, ”William Pitt
den Yngre” af William Hague, og så glider jeg over i søvnen – zzzzz!!!!!
04:15 Jeg står tidligt op og kigger lidt på fjernsyn. Bagefter
fortsætter jeg med at kopiere mine gamle vhs-bånd til dvd. Vi er nu i 1993. Jeg
falder over et program fra ”DJ Heaven”-serien på BBC-TV. Hvert program i serien
sætter fokus på én eller anden BBC discjockey. Dette afsnit handler om Dave Lee
”DLT” Travis, og det følgende afsnit fokuserer på Jimmy Savile, som programmets
annoncør kalder ”den hellige Jimmy Savile”.
Vi ved nu, at Savile under sin karriere begik mange seksuelle overgreb
mod hundreder af kvinder og mindreårige piger, men han døde i 2011, inden hans
aktiviteter kom for dagens lys, og han slippede for straf. Havde programmets
annoncør hørt rygterne og talte han ironisk, da han kaldte ham ”den hellige
Jimmy Savile”?
Dave Lee ”DLT” Travis selv blev straffet i 2014 med betinget fængsel på
3 måneder for seksuelle overgreb mod en kvinde. Han var én af BBCs mest berømte
dj’s, især i 1970’erne, da han præsenterede for første gang mange kommende
hits.
DLT, som tv-vært i 1970’erne
DLT
præsenterer David Bowie, der synger ”(We can be) Heroes (just for one day)”
1978 – han er den første dj, der for første gang
præsenterer Blondie for engelske fjernsynseere
nogle fotos, som DLT helt sikkert ville
hellere glemme alt om
11:30 Vi går hen til det lokale Waitrose-supermarkedet, hvor der findes
en Thomas Cook rejsebureau og vi reserverer vores flybilletter til Australien –
du godeste! Vi føler os meget modige i dag – det er jeg ikke i tvivl om! Det
viser sig, at Thomas Cook kan tilbyde os billetterne på en meget lavere pris,
end vi så på internettet – hurra! Prisen var ca. £8.000 i stedet for £16.000,
inklusive hoteller i Birmingham og i Dubai. Du godeste (igen)!
Det er utroligt. Vi er så glade for at vi besluttede at besøge en
rejsebureau i stedet for at reservere online – det er både sikkert og vist!!!!
Vi flyver Emirates business class mellem England og Australien, ligesom
Jennifer Aniston, og når vi ankommer til England ved slutningen af ferien, får
vi en gratis Emirates-taxa hjem til Cheltenham – hurra! Mellem Melbourne og
Adelaide (1 time), og mellem Adelaide og Perth (3 timer) flyver vi economy,
hvilket er meget billigere.
At få reserveret vores flybilletter og hoteller varer 2 timer, og
bagefter smutter vi ind i supermarkedets café og spiser frokost.
Lois og flybilletterne i supermarkedets café
15:00 Vi kører hjem og jeg går i seng. Jeg tager mig en lang lur – zzzz !!!!
16:20 Jeg står op og vi slapper af med en kop te på sofaen.

22:00 We go to bed. I read 8 pages of my bedtime-book, "William Pitt the
Younger" by William Hague, and then I slide into sleep - zzzzz !!!!!
04:15 I get up early and take a look at the television. Afterwards I continue to copy my old VHS tapes to DVD. We are now in 1993. I tripped over a program from "DJ Heaven" series on BBC-TV. Each program in the series will focus on one or another BBC disc jockey. This episode is all about Dave Lee "DLT" Travis, and the following episode focuses on Jimmy Savile, whom the program announcer calls "the saintly Jimmy Savile."
We now know that Savile during his career committed many sexual abuse of hundreds of women and underage girls, but he died in 2011 before his activities came to light, and he escaped punishment. Had the program's annnouncer heard rumors and spoke ironically, when he called him "the saintly Jimmy Savile"?
Dave Lee "DLT" Travis himself was punished in 2014 with suspended sentence of 3 months for sexual assault against a woman. He was one of the BBC's most famous DJs, especially in the 1970s when he presented for the first time many future hits.

DLT as TV host in 1970
DLT
presents David Bowie singing "(We can be) Heroes (just for one day)"
1978
- he is the first DJ to present Blondie for British television viewers
some photos that DLT certainly would rather forget about
11:30 We go to
the local Waitrose supermarket, where there is a Thomas Cook travel agency and
we reserve our flights to Australia - my goodness! We feel very brave today - I
have no doubt! It turns out that Thomas Cook can offer us the tickets at a much
lower price than we saw on the internet - hurray! The price was about £ 8,000
instead of £ 16,000, including hotels in Birmingham and in Dubai. My God
(again)!
It is incredible. We are so happy that we decided to visit a travel agent instead of booking online - it is both certain and sure!!!! We're flying Emirates business class between England and Australia, like Jennifer Aniston, and when we arrive in England at the end of the holiday, we get a free Emirates taxi home to Cheltenham - hurray! Between Melbourne and Adelaide (1 hour), and between Adelaide and Perth (3 hours), we fly economy, which is much cheaper.
To get booked
our flights and hotels lasts 2 hours and afterwards we slip into the
supermarket's café and have lunch.

15:00 We drive home and I go to bed. I take a long nap - zzzz !!!!
16:20 I get up
and we relax with a cup of tea on the sofa.
