KimHansen Posted October 25, 2007 Share Posted October 25, 2007 I know the by heart, the words of the BBC radio broadcast, that told the danes that they where free again. And i was born 27 years after :-) Peter - Wonder how the speaker did know, that you would be born some 27 years later? :-) All the best Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KimHansen Posted October 25, 2007 Share Posted October 25, 2007 I remember my parents having candles in the windows every may 4. in the evening like many Danes did spontaneously on the May 4. 1945. You can still se that tradition brought to live today on the day of our liberation, but not practised from younger generations. Well I do, even though I was borne 16 years later. It gives me an excellent opportunity to tell the story to my kids. I think that history is very important – that’s the key to understand the world today. By the way - Wonder if Denmark is the only country with that tradition. How are the end of WW2 celebrated in YOUR country – any traditions? http://i24.tinypic.com/99i25d.jpg[/img] Best regards Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KimHansen Posted October 25, 2007 Share Posted October 25, 2007 Peter the English don't do things like that :nono: In Jersey during the celebration of the 60th anniversary of the Liberation, teachers were told not to refer to German s, but 'Foreign Occupying Powers' :dunno: Or do they?. One of my favourite Fawlty Towers episodes is the one where Basil had German guests. “Don’t mention the war …”. We must remember and tell the history in an objective way. What did happen and who did it should not be forgotten – we should learn from it. Of course we shall forgive but never forget.

KimHansen Posted October 25, 2007 Share Posted October 25, 2007 Hi :-) kim. I dont understand what you mean ?? Ps. I ALWAYS have candles in our windows every may 4. :-) Hi Peter Well, I was only joking or trying to anyway. It’s a matter of wording. Reading your lines one could – more or less intentionally- misunderstand the contents in a way, that the statement of your birth was a part of the radio announcement We should all have candles in our windows every 4. May. I’m glad that do so also. Best regards Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
andreadavide Posted October 26, 2007 Share Posted October 26, 2007 Don't go there please. By the Way it a UNION FLAG, not a Union Jack, the only time it is a Jack is when it flies from the Jackstaff of a British Warship in harbour. I stand corrected!

Topdog Posted October 30, 2007 Share Posted October 30, 2007 Peter, I hope you are able to buy the Ferret. I have had mine for 8 months now and it is such fun. There will be problems but there will always be an answer or help from someone on here. Dont look back and think that you had the chance but never did it. Good luck David Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
