On Basilisk Station

By David Weber. ★★★★★★

Commander Honor Harrington, freshly graduated from the Royal Manticorian Navy’s Advanced Tactical Course, assumes command of CL-56 Fearless as it is completing an extensive weapons refit.

A successful young officer with a promising career in the service of her Queen, Honor’s delight at her new command soon turns to dismay as she realizes Fearless has been nearly stripped of her normal weapons and turned into a tactical testbed for new technology. After initial success in the opening rounds of fleet war games, Fearless suffers defeat after defeat as opposing officers correctly determine the safest way to deal with the light cruiser’s refitted weapons is to deny her the chance to use them.

The Little Red Cat and The Rainbow Bridge

Here is two stories I came across from an artist’s memorial page to her deceased cat. It made me cry and I still dry tears from my eyes and have a lump in my throat. But it is well written.

If you ever lost a pet, you will know the feeling and have a happy smile, even if you like me, might be cry after reading this. Continue reading The Little Red Cat and The Rainbow Bridge…

Solar Storm

For the past few weeks, I’ve been running around with a sound stuck in my head. It’s the sound that Gasolin uses in their song, Rabalderstræde from 1975. The into got a distinct sound that I wanted to try and copy. Didn’t succeed, but I got close enough imho.

Merry Christmas!

To everyone I know and also to the ones I do not know, who reads this blog, I wish a very Merry Christmas!

It’s been a great day. I’ve been more or less in charge of making Christmas dinner here and it’s been loads of fun! We had roast duck with apple, onion and bred stuffing, red wine sauce made from stuck from the duck giblets. With that, we had candied potatoes. Small white potatoes covered with sirup and butter that I let simmer for 4 hours. They turned out GREAT! We also had normal boiled potatoes and chips with it. Afterwords we had Risalamande. Again homemade. Continue reading Merry Christmas!…

Random news.

Just some random news.

Thanks to the people who replied on my previous post. You really did help brighten up my day.

I’ve worked a lot on the webpage lately. You might recognized some here and there, but the biggest change was that I found the artist who did the original of the background I used. Means I got a far better version now, but also means I gota hope the guy will let me use the picture. Well cross your fingers!

What is life worth?

What is life worth? Well what is your life worth?

I’ve been asking myself that question lately. The answers I’ve been able to come up with, hasn’t exactly been positive… I can’t seam to do anything productive. I have a job yes, but at the same time I am on a pension. I have no purpose… I feel so worthless all the time.

Now I know that some of my friends and my family, possibly you the reader, will say that it is not true. Well that doesn’t really help with my self esteem… I simply don’t believe it myself anymore…

I just don’t know what to do…

Showers and what you need.

How does it feel to wash yourself with a dead cucumber?

A friend of mine, send me a nice christmas package from the states. Yes CG, we know who you are ;) Turns out that my wife had talked with him about what things I really needed around the house. A new shower curtain and a new sponge, were on my list. He, wisely as he is, send his mom out shopping! Thanks Rita! Continue reading Showers and what you need….

Snow – joy or annoyance?

Snow snow where ever you look. Just LOTS of snow covering the landscape. It’s really pretty! Just looking at the white covered landscape, makes me sigh with joy. I almost get the urge to go out and build a snow cave or something – as a matter of fact, I might just do that tomorrow. Continue reading Snow – joy or annoyance?…

White Christmas?

It’s snowing! It really is snowing… Man…. It’s snowing a lot today…. Hmm can I even get out?

Many people have been caught somewhere on the roads and on train stations. It just kept coming down in buckets! I even tried to get my scooter out. Took me 30 min to get from my house and 100m down the road and back. I wanted to go out to see my mom, but no.. That just have to wait! Continue reading White Christmas?…
