The penultimate day.

This morning I went for a run, well a run with a bit of walking included, to be honest.
It was wet & windy & muddy in places.
J went to Nursery & MK, DK & I went to the outlet, had a good browse, a excellent lunch & then we visited Nike & Reebok looking for a pair of trainers for me that would double as walking/gym shoes on holiday.
Finding a pair was time consuming, then MK pointed out that there was a special offer on which demanded that you bought two things of similar value, as the second "thing" was only 49Kr.
As they had little to fit a size 14, 50 year old of indifferent athletic talent (OK, I lied there somewhere), I eventually found a second pair of trainers - white leather with gold writing that J tells me says that I am a "winner".
This took so long that DK was all but walking by the time we left.
Well!

WE collected J & have enjoyed a nice dinner of marinaded pork chops.
The highlight had to be DK throwing his head back, playing dead when "shot" by J during the meal, copying mum, dad & J.

Home tomorrow, arriving BHX at 10.00am.
Thanks to the all of the family for an entertaining week & excellent Danish cuisine.

A pleasure - doubling the chatter of J & DK to say everything in both languages.

The Ancient Mariner - Coleridges lengthy poem about an elderly ships cook who pickled an albatross prior to roasting, to ensure tenderness.
The last supper.
