                For sure…. I find it equal parts funny/scary that during our Saturday morning warm up last September we fit right in there. Huge English breakfast and  pints of beer on the High Street follwoed by more pints and friendly chats in what turned out to be one of the dodgiest pubs in a town of very dodgy pubs.

                        I have a student this year named Anker. It is an extreme test of my resolve and testament to depths of will power that I didn't know I had, that I have not made any of the obvious puns yet. It isn't like he doesn't deserve it either.

                            It is fascinating how the language is used differently around the world.  I also did not realize that there is a hierarchy to the insults used in the UK.

                              Something of a contrast to Gosport….

                              As the fam were getting ready to leave the house this morning we sent the boys out into the veranda to run about as we got our Wesco’s on. As we were taking a while I stuck my head out to check on them. Just as well I did as in that moment I saw something potentially dangerous but also very beautiful and a bit mental.

                              First came mummy...

                              Followed by child number one…

                              Then child number two

                              Then they stopped 10 meters away from us for a spot of breakfast:

                                      do they attack people?

                                      We only have roe deer in our backyard… very shy but they love our roses

                                            I see… their sheer size alone makes them dangerous. But I thought they would flee like deer when humans appear. My father worked in the automotive industry and was many times in northern parts of sweden where the winter testing grounds are... he was always adviced to drive very carefully up there not to have an accident with a moose.

                                            God has blessed you richly, so get down on your knees and thank him. Don’t forget the less fortunate or God will personally kick your ass. I’d love to do it for him, but I can’t be everywhere. Willie Nelson
