    Oh Andrew

    What beautiful cats.

    It makes me just want to stroke them.

    Are they taking piano lessons?

    Margaret,

    thanks, you are welcome - come and stroke as much as you want!!

    For the piano lessons - sorry they are untalented. On the first pic you see a result of one of these lessons.

    Want a video where a cat does really play piano?

    I had a couple of Siamese cats in my past ... I now live in a unit which has a "no pet" policy. Siamese are the most intelligent and devoted pets I've ever known (feline that is). My last Siamese, Miss Bits, used to know when I was coming home (no matter what the hour) and would hop off my mother's lap and come and meow through the window to me. I'd meow back as I walked closer to the door. Sweet, miss her (and my mother who died of cancer) dreadfully still, silly! And that's more than four years ago.

    Great to know, you beside your wish for a better spoken and written Danish even speak the language of cats - meowing. It might help you in Danish as well. Seriously CT64 - Please decide for one single thread where you will be taught extensive Danish by your mentor.

    This one was soooo great from you, it gave room for the extended conversation on my hidden relationship to the Hare Krishna movement, it even brought us food for thought around priests and their dresses later on - You´re so hilarius, when you want to I always enjoy this, CD!!

    Btw. I really think the fountain, the "springvand" is not Storkespringvandet, it might be Gefionspringvandet in stead. Also worth mentioning. You can see that I am not in the middle of my group, sort of half away and half don´t know what to do. Sort of walking without moving, the significant movements males perform, not really dancing, when they have to go (read pee) - but can´t, because the show has not finished.

    Wow, cool. That's one of the best national anthems, musically speaking, imo. That one, and the Marseillaise (France) would have to be my favs so far. And O Canada is very good too, imo.

    Here's something random, and yet not. Have any of you seen this? Guess what the song is here....

    + YouTube Video

    That's very clever ... I've not seen anything like that before ... certainly very random.

    The guy must have worked quite hard to put that thing together.

    I would never have thought of trying to learn to sing a song backwards. But he found a reason to.

    Nice job, imo. Fun.

    Hi Rojo

    With my voice songs sound bad enough sung fowards, let alone backwards.
