Lots of fierce big and little dogs here. Had a good day cycling round Copenhagen – all the places we wanted to go in are closed Mondays and even the Little Mermaid had been exported to Shanghai for Expo 2010 so we just kept on cycling. Had a look at the hippie commune Christiania but it has passed its heyday and looks very Dickensian, full of Bill Sykes types with their dogs.
Must either learn Danish or cultivate English speaking butchers wherever we go. Picked up yet another piece of unidentifiable meat for the bbq at Netto on the way home – next time David tells me to freewheel down a slope and get the adrenalin going I’ll remind him how we live on the edge every time we sit down for our evening meal!
Must wrap this up before 8.30 when Mussolini, the Untold Story part 3 starts on Film 24. I’m so glad David splashed out on the sat dish for the TV so we have a rich choice between BBC News 24, Film 24 and best of all Movies4Men (think David Hasselhof acting everyone else off the screen).
We’ve become hooked on Mussolini the Untold Story, its fascinating. George C Scott gives a fantastic dual performance as Mussolini and Uncle Fester from the Addams Family with Raul Julia as both his son in law in MTUS and Gomez in the Adams Family? Spooky.
Julie / David - am loving your blogs! I understand the meat thing in supermarkets - I eventually decided that the most expensive stuff per kilo was probably fillet and then worked my way down through sirloin, rump, braising and stewing steak!
ReplyDeletethe costs of G&Ts and Wine would probably make leave Scandinavia pretty quickly though!
