Copenhagen Songwriters Festival



Well, today I'll be giving you some information about an upcoming event in advance, not at the last minute as I usually do. Surprise, surprise wonders never cease. First off, I have to tell you that it's been kind of a strange day today.

I made an appointment with the hairdresser to change my hair colour, yet again. I asked her if she could start frying and dying my hair at ...

Free Concert at City Hall



There's nothing better than attending a free concert. Believe me, I know because last year I attended a Peter Frampton concert, free. This year I saw the Doobie Brothers gratis. This past Sunday I was hanging about in Waupoos land, and saw a local band, The Fade Kings  for free.

Now I'm just figuring out how to see the Temptations, on the house so to speak. Any ideas please forward them asap! ...

Down in the Dumps



Yesterday was a scorcher here across the pond. Gettin' my runnin' around done early was the plan, so I could live the afternoon, like a beach. First thing in the morning, I had a hankering for a tea and a bagel so I warmed up the old truckster and took a trip into the local town.

I thought because it was hot, all of the tourists would have been hanging outside ...

Copenhagen Cocktail at Hotel Skt. Petri



Is the weekend over, already? Well, birch slap me silly because I guess it is. Actually, it was pretty fun from where I'm standing from, as I made the most of it by heading up to the local "Marysburgh Pub," here in Waupoos. It's only a hop, skip and a jump from my mom's house. It was well worth the five minute walk, as it turned out to be a ...

Red Light District



Well, summer has finally arrived and most people around here are thrilled to bits. No more heavy jackets, scarves and clunky boots. I'm enjoying my extended time here in south eastern Ontario, despite a few strange experiences. The weirdest to date, was that I was accused of being a "Jezebel" or "Lady of the Night," even though the incident occurred in broad daylight.

It all started, when I was waiting for ...

Treasure Hunting in Copenhagen



Well, I hope everyone is geared up for an exciting weekend ahead. Mine will be, I hope. It'll be a nice mix of work and play. In fact, I'm planning on making this summer "fun, fun, fun until my family takes my Ford Ranger away."

That reminds me, I'm thinking that the red, rockin' ranger will definitely need a new muffler soon. My brother told me it's sounding louder. But I choose to ...

Loving British Airways not YYZ



I had to take a flight late last week to Toronto via London with British Airways. I was originally slated to leave in March but had to readjust my ticket because of illness in the family. At Kastrup Airport in Copenhagen I was told that the flight would be delayed an hour because of nasty weather. Not good news as that didn't leave me much time to catch my connecting ...

The Best of Both Worlds



When I was back in Canada, I mostly ping-ponged between the countryside, where there were trees and water surrounding our every move, and a city where it seemed there were only buildings and traffic as far as the eye could see. Out in the country, it was lovely and tranquil but it wasn't long before I longed for easy access to shops, technology and people. When I'd return to the ...

Where Art Thou Neil?



Psst...I mentioned this in an earlier blog but nonetheless it's worth mentioning again. Just a reminder that the legendary musician/songwriter/social activist/jack of all trades, master of all, Mr. Neil Young is performing in Copenhagen tonight. He is here with his wife, his handy dandy guitar, his band and his repertoire of classic songs and perhaps a few new diddys. It all started last night, but he hits the stage again tonight at ...

Party "Hearty" Swedish Style



"Wasn't that a party..might have been the two, four, six pack I don't know but look at the mess I'm in..." Well, that song doesn't ring true in my case as I didn't drink so much. You're probably wondering what the heck I'm talking about. This weekend, I went on my little adventure tour to Sweden but you know what? The party wasn't in Malmo like I said earlier. Someone ...
