Once again a grey and cloudy Tuesday with a promise of rain later. I wonder what it is with Tuesdays? I do not know any Danish songs or poems abut Tuesdays. Just this part of a "Song of the Week" by Kaj and Andrea. And the only English one, that comes to my mind is Tuesday Afternoon and that's neither here nor there on a grey Tuesday morning.

| Tyve torsk til tirsdag, tænker tretten traner
tyve torsk til tretten trætte traner. Traner tænker tem'lig tumpet tirsdag. Twenty trouts for Tuesday, thirteen terns are thinking. Twenty trouts for thirteen tired terns. Tuesday's Terns are thinking thoughts thickwitted |
Kaj and Andrea were two puppets in a TV-program for children in the 1970s, they were very popular, and all the songs are still sung by preschoolers in Denmark.

Uglemor,
SvarSletAfter seeing this view in many different photos, I'm now wondering what's around the bend in the road. Is that a house to the right of the picture? Which direction do you travel to get home? It's a bit like hearing the start of a story and wanting to know more!
I laways take the picture on my way home, facing home. I'm halfways between the busstop and our house, which is not far beyond the bend. We live in a very small village with approxcimately 20 houses.
SletThia time a car passed by as I took the picture. The pictures with cars do not normally makle it to my blog, but the alternative ones were blurred or darkish.
On the hill behind the trees to the left are two farms - family-sized both of them. Tth one nearest to the road is owned by an industrious farmer. He drives by our house several times a day in a tractor or some such vehicle.
Uglemor,
SletThank you for describing your village. It is very small! Although we also live in a village, there are more than 20 houses in our road alone. It sounds like you live in a very beautiful and peaceful place.
