Thursday Thoughts – Hasse & Tage – (‘Swedish Words Ltd’)
This tiny exhibition at Kulturen in Lund was a real hit for me. I only took a few photos, but hopefully they convey something of what and who they were. Some of their movies are still on TV every year…and Hasse is still here, even if he does not write or perform anymore. The Apple War and The Simple-Minded Murderer are my absolute favourites.
Nostalgia…yes, but they will never die! Hans Alfredsson and Tage Danielsson – the number one comic artists of Sweden, the best critics of politics and politicians, the front figures working for a better world and environmental awareness. They brought out the best in people…by using their extreme talent for words.
Unfortunately this kind of sophisticated humour does no longer exist. (People are not good at words anymore…) Word jugglers, enthusiasts – ask any Swede my age, and they can recite something from ”Om sannolikhet” (”On Likelyhood”)
the small exhibition is in Lund, at Kulturen
I studied at Lund Uni for several years…
One of their famous songs starting ”I want a flowery Falun sausage for breakfast…”
…and Genghis Khan was the first ”Lundaspex” show I enjoyed- Not in 1954 though…but much later

A Walk at Lindö – In the Best Company
Every summer we take walks at Lindö in Blekinge – a protected isthmus with lovely flora and fauna. Always windy, and this summer rather cold as well. But Lindö is a must – The Blekinge archipelago is a source of harmony and joy.
Small fishing boats…
…and on the shore has been built a little house where people are welcome to sit down and make themselves a cup of coffe or tea, while warming up or birdwatching.
Approaching autumn makes the shores empty…
…but timeless in their beauty.
…so we headed back to the shore and the stony paths…
…passing abandoned boathouses and…
…the lonely pier
Goodnight from Sweden
A Sunny Day…One of Few
To remind me of one of the few sunny days this summer. Cold, windy and showers every day – this Swedish summer of 2017 will not be one remembered for its glorious weather. This week is also the last holiday week for many Swedes – always a bit terrifying…but nowadays it doesn’t matter that much how the summer was. I am lucky to be free!

Jen at WordPress wants to know about what gives us satisfaction – and well, every February, week 8, I get a lot of that… I give my 144 potplants a total makeover!
Thursday Thoughts – Childhood Dreams
Children. Sometimes I wish I was a child again – maybe not all of you do, but maybe some of you …?
Freedom. I was fortunate – I had the best childhood I could dream of. Loving parents and grandparents…and not more human friends than I wanted. Animals were my best friends. Strolling in the forest, feeling totally secure. Quietness. Simplicity.
When walking the paths at Wanås, there were some children skipping in front of us – with their parents of course. I could not help but studying them. A girl and a boy – siblings – who quietly climbed the installations allowed. The girl exploring first…and then the boy took the lead. A bit more daring now…
Later in the day, I saw them merrily running and jumping over a little bridge in the fading sunshine. The boy in the lead. So…first the girl, leading the boy into this new, unknown world…and when he felt safe and secure enough, he took over.
And, the very little girl in the header, trudging away…how did she manage?
I so recognized myself in her. She was a loner, a little philosopher…
…until her mother called her name, waking her up from her reveries and reminding her she had to hurry up and join the rest of the little family.
