  1. I'm away to my bed...
  2. Glad your day went better than your night. I hope you get a good night's rest as a result.
  3. I could dig out the ones you emailed me a while ago, @Albert1434, and stick them up on a site I often use, and then email you the links if you want... But it wouldn't be tonight, as I first have to find them, and it's way after midnight here and I am shattered.
  4. Okay, thanks Val. At least it's not my laptop.
  5. My laptop just gave me the blue screen of death. But on re-starting, I'm still not seeing the last two photos Albert posted... Can anyone else see them? Maybe it's just my laptop fookering me about?
  6. That one didn't work, unfortunately
  7. Lovely, Albert! You showed me that one, and a few others, a while back.
  8. Cheers, buddy! It's amazing at times just what detail the camera can reveal. Detail that's almost invisible to the naked eye.
  9. And the main reason I made banana bread was because I also had four ripe bananas, (Actually, they were almost over-ripe)
  10. Banana bread, fresh out of the oven:
  11. Cheers, buddy! Your photo made me think of that one...
  12. Hi, young Albert! Hope all's well in Albertsville. Beautiful photograph. Here's Urban Forest growing on top of a stone wall in Lancaster, England
  13. I think I need to go and find a dry pair of pants....
  14. Very belated "Hi" back to you, Ali. Hope all's well with you.
  15. Puppy dogs and babies are cute... But thanks, Page. And Hey! Right back at you.
  16. Right! Enough of this malingering. I'm off back into the garden for an hour or two.
  17. I'm wondering if that's a Danish idiom... Google just translates it to "over the hot wheat" (or alternatively "over the hot wheat buns") [Edit] Oops! My bad.... I see you were referring to the traditional buns you have for Store bededag.
  18. It's not listed on this page: https://guidetoiceland.is/history-culture/icelandic-traditions-holidays-dates Nor on this page (less wordy, so easier to see the important stuff): https://www.iceland.is/the-big-picture/people-society/traditions
  19. I just searched for "Great Prayer day (Store Bededag) in Denmark" in Google. I actually selected that text in your post, right clicked, and asked Google to search for it. The first result was this page, in English: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Store_Bededag
  20. Not in the slightest, child.
  21. Of course I just had to look that up... Interesting tradition and history. And a moveable feast, due to it being connected with Easter. I see it's also celebrated in the Faroe Islands, where it is called Dýri biðidagur, and in Greenland (Greenlandic Tussiarfissuaq). Enjoy the day, Tim!
  22. I so love a man with perseverance. But I'm not grey. I'm pure white. (I'm talking about the colour of my hair, clo, not my soul.)
  23. I've said it before, and I'll say it again... I have a plentiful supply of razors.
