New Gym-buddy!

Sunday, January 13th, 2008

Got a new Gym-buddy now… it seems like my friend Benjamin is having trouble joining me (and now Christian) at the Gym, so my new Gym-buddy has been Christian for the last 1,5 month…  and we even had a Spinning lesson this week (and another coming up on Monday) where I for the first time since my surgery was biking for 55 minutes in a row - really felt good to try and know that my knee can do it.

Esbjerg in the weekend…

Wednesday, September 26th, 2007

Some views from being back in Esbjerg….

This is what they call a restaurant in Esbjerg

Yes, its certainly aimed at the fishermen in town, and some would say its a bit too much with all that stuff in the window and inside, but if you compare it to the Irish and English concept bars all over the world you would find this a bit for original…. hint: this hasnt been ordered on shop.irishbar.com ;-)

Copenhagen has its Rundetårn and Esbjerg has Vandtårnet

And the advertising agencies are just as good/sad as in Copenhagen

AND the local football team beat the (former) leader of the league FC Midtjylland 2-0…  nice…   so in fact a pretty good weekend!

And getting ready for The Who - I guess Peter has been acting like a bulldozer (as usual) to get them that close…

Red Hot Chili Peppers at Roskilde Festival

Saturday, July 7th, 2007

and I will not be there…. damn it..

My brother Peter and the ‘kids’ arrived at my apartment a bit later than 04 his morning , after a night of music at the Roskilde Festival - to my big disappointment they didnt look wet at all…. ;-) the weather turned out to be dry from above, but that didnt take away the minimum 20 cm of mud all over the area… Anyway they had a great evening, but looked rather sleepy…

And today it will be Red Hot Chili Peppers day (and The Who day for Peter), which I unfortunately cant join them for… damn it…
Btw Thomas gave me this link to a LOT of RHCP concerts… enjoy…

Roskilde music Festival is under water…

Friday, July 6th, 2007

Denmark is big time under water because of heavy rain in the last days which creates big problems for cars on some roads, houses being flooded and also the Roskilde Festival which has NEVER had that much water before - Ekstra Bladet’s reporter tells about standing in half a meter of water and mud under the Björk concert last night.
And today my brother Peter and his ‘kids’ Thomas, Erik and Maria will arrive at my place - as the ‘base camp’ for their trips to the Roskilde Festival (they are NOT planning to sleep there - in the water and mud). But it seems like they wont be seeing that much of the music because of the weather…  wussies..  ;-)
They plan to watch The Who (Peter is a BIG fan), Red Hot Chili Peppers and Beastie Boys…  oh yes, I would have loved to join them, but no chance right now..

Ib Klintø at Pearl of Scandinavia

Friday, June 29th, 2007

My father Ib at the DFDS ferry Pearl of Scandinavia - we were relaxing in the Wine bare after some hours of sightseeing in Oslo - My father choose coffee and single malt whisky (Highland Park, 25 yo - GREAT choice!) and I was beginning with a beer - an Ale from Ølfabrikken…  a Danish Micro brewery

Back again from Oslo!

Monday, June 25th, 2007

After a relaxing boat cruise to Oslo together with my father I was again to be found at the Addvisors office in Copenhagen. The cruise was really nice and good to see my father again - in fact the only small disappointment was the rainly Oslo weather…
I promise to drop some pictures from Oslo here on the blog pretty soon..
