Copenhagen garden houses
I have recently been to two parties at “koloni-haver” here in Copenhagen. This is my account of the local colour these visits provided. Also, this is where I try to describe the Scandinavian idea of tending a garden in a club. A koloni-have (“colony garden”, a garden lot with a wee house, organized in a …
Denmark is Dead: Great programmer booted out of the country
My neighbour Sean Treadway today posted a sad post – he is getting kicked out of the country: > So that’s all folks Denmark has evaluated that my contribution to the country through my freelance work is not of significant value. This is patently horrible. On so many levels. Sean’s one of the really great …

Cabaret in Copenhagen: Livingstones Kabinet
Yesterday night, I was at the KafCaféen venue, where Livingstones Kabinet opened their new show “We love you too”, a political raunchy trip with the band’s trademark Weimar Republic feeling.

CPH street art & Flickr
A local posting on the steet art giant Huskmitnavn in Copenhagen. You can take a look at representations of his/her posters at Flickr (Photos tagged with huskmitnavn). Huskmitnavn (rememberMyName it would read in English in studlyCaps) makes three to five campaigns a year. Spices up the walls. The posters are large, never square. I joined …
Random act of kindness
**Tusen og en nat**. Falafel. 3 DKK discount. Of a 20 DKK price tag. Vesterbrogade. That’s all I could write on my way home from the nightclub Vega on the after-party of Reboot 7. A gesture of hospitality from a stranger. A random act of kindness. I was so elated that I afterwards helped others’ …
Defibrillators now in the Copenhagen metro
There are now defibrillators, for public use, in the metros in Copenhagen. The public is important in saving lives, or something to that effect. Will the machines be used for pranks? Will they work? Will the public understand the machines? Will they “play heroes”? Make up your own mind about this, because when your own …
