I didn't know that was the English name, until I looked it up. I was going to give the scientific name Lonicera periclymenum (or if planted it could be Lonicera caprifolium). The Danish name is gedeblad (which means goat leaf), a somewhat less romantic appelation.  

Funny in French it's called the same as danish goat leaf but in one work "chèvrefeuille"

I'm just happy to see that people were able to identify it from a black and white photograph.

Another common name, at least in England, for it is woodbine. The word bine is an English word (hardly ever used nowadays) that the Merriam-Webster dictionary defines as: "a twining stem or flexible shoot (as of the hop) also : a plant (such as woodbine) whose shoots are bines."

When i was a child there was a popular brand of cigarette known as Wild Woodbine (or more commonly just as Woodbine) which featured drawings of the woodbine plant on the packaging. 

Spoiler

The Irish name for the honeysuckle is táthfhéithleann. I'm not sure what that compound word literally translates to in English. Both my Irish/English dictionary and Google Translate simply translate it to honeysuckle, but Google Translate does offer Hypertension if I capitalise the first letter of the Irish word...

So, it's okay to eat blue cheese with pears, but Provolone with Nutella is taboo?   

HEY! Don't be knockin' blue cheese and pears.

As for provolone and nutella, no thank you. I don't care for nutella. I also remember when you first mentioned having made that sandwich and understood your reasoning.

Got my attention too. I mean really, it takes time to brew beer. I don't care how long you let the pizza dough rise and simmer the sauce that beer isn't gonna be ready when pizza comes out of the oven.

When I used to brew my own beer it would usually be at least four weeks before it was ready...

It's a wild flower growing in the hedge in my garden. 

Not going to say what it is, until I've given you all a chance to try to identify it...

I forgot it's called woodbine. It's lovely photo.

I'm not entirely well but I am okay. The brooding storm in my head matches the brooding weather outdoors. So far neither storm has burst just a heavy foreboding.

I think he needs a hug and a kiss on the brow to sooth a hint of disquiet. Social distancing be damned, I volunteer to bestow both.

Oh, and a quiet cuddle afterward.

I used to make a lot of both. Still have the equipment but, as I very seldom drink alcohol these days, I hardly ever make either any more.

Hi, young man.

When I hear 'woodbine', it makes me think of a racetrack in Ontario.
