Thought for the day. This shirt validates a happy snapper.

Denmark and Statues
Statues eeeeeeeverywhere. Can anyone explain what this is all about
From another view. Its got me stumped. Why on earth? What’s the point?
And the naked lady throttling a goose…naked lady …has goose Will travel Wont go hungry
Casablan a
Vultures in for the kill. Nice buildings gutted and largely under enemy occupation. The war goes on. Even if it’s costly. Go around the corner and buy lunch in a real place run by people who care.
Children recognise music first. Kids often recognise that my sound is worth a listen and they want to stay a while ….and in this instance the parents encouraged them to .their dad took this photo.lovely family.
So crass it’s almost high art…
It’s not the way forward is it? This is not what millions died to allow. This isn’t freedom of expression; this is a war of nerves where the price of everything and the value in nothing abounds.
A far cry from the man with the eskimo and old european values.
Partytime
Denmark Pt 3
My plan is to go to Bergen Norway
Monday-pls God- i be there
So lets see what happens.
Am booked into a place in London 14 and 15th of April. Many thanks to Tony Mole for sponsoring me. Let me know if you want to come to a houseconcert during my London stay …i leave London about 17th. Prior plan is to go to York. Really appreciate the leads given to me in this area. Thanks Ruth and congratulations btw he’s a lucky guy.
Please ya’all get in touch if you want to host a Hurley show..i can play at yours for a song within 48 hours anywhere in the Europe. Its fun playing this way ..
So far so good but i been spoilt in Denmark. It’s such a friendly place. Here are some more photos from around Aalborg.
This eskimo is a hundred euros. Made by Lisa anderson in the 60’s – seen here with the owner. The little eskimo stays in the window but you can buy her for 100 euros ( about $NZ 160)
Dont want to leave her here. Wish i could tour with lisas eskimo but she’s in safe hands she might get smashed in my luggage if she tours with me.
As does this one, So cute. It’s not on topic i know but i love kitsch.
Best cafe in Aalborg…
Great watering hole…
Jeppe at your service…Jeppe made me a hot choc to die for. What a superb environment. Be afraid starbucks. No way to surpass this place. Good to see sole traders thriving. Expressemotion
I want one of these…
Needs vs wants. I need this…
A typical street in Aalborg
World leader in wind power generation…
My host Ulrik with a Tubilak – Thanks for the offer sheriff but i don’t need one What is a tubilak? or this ? Tupilak pronounced dubilak this is the real spelling of the object Ulrik is holding.
Thanks again everyone for your help. Hope to see you in Norway or England soon.
Denmark – in Åalborg
Last gig in Denmark this Sunday, then England. Anyone out there keen to host a house concert in London or York in the near future?
Just played a place in Åalborg acting on an invite from Casper….here i am with him in the super duper elevator.
He had to cover a lota bases to get me the gig. Future Care is brand new so i was the first overseas performer to play there. Note: Future Care Home, Ålborg Denmark
World famous in future care
Here is the library
The green wall – The greenery is real
The green wall close up
A place to have a cuppa
The amazing thing about this care concept is that visitors have a place to share with one another and the visited can come and go as they please. High quality food make no mistake…not junk food…no way
Artform future care furniture
In conclusion – Playing in this place was not a depressing experience. The staff do everything they can to give late lifers a good time. The music i played was well received. We need more of these places.
Like Caspar, Maria was one of 50 selected out of 900
She sports a tatoo like many young people here do
Residents can take a ride on an electric trike with one of the staff
Bus to Aalborg…The drivers got tats… theres a very clear notice about what is not permitted on the bus. No sausages please. No skates pal.
Lots of little towns with little shops but the franchises are sneaking in. Aalborg has its first Starbucks. It wont be the last. I found a superb place.
Means knife and fork in Danish. Yes i had this place recommended to me by a lady who was on her tenth pint of beer. She said it’s great but not cheap.
The owner of knife and fork – Aa is the owner.
I had to have lunch here. Soup and salmon. I will suffer for this cause it wasn’t cheap. O well. Lunch on the firm is ok from time to time.

Denmark is kinda like being back home except that the buildings are super well insulated and the furniture is an artform. The Danes love statues too.
Here is an early tobacco promotion.
Or hop along cassidy
Shop windows full of them
Babies climbing into the sky
Even a teddy with offspring
Art abounds in peoples homes like this lady from Cuba
And this from another house. Superb taste they have….clean Tidy Orderly and generally super polite.
The pubs are much like home except
You can smoke inside
And they don’t talk loud
And remain polite even when munted
Lovely ornament in the place i stay
