There are new houses there now.

Great shot Mr Fjord. When did you fly in for a visit to the manor? If I had known that you were making a Royal visit I would have got out the reddish carpet for you. May be even tea and scones or Danish Pastry.

Great photo. in such a short time ou could make another visit for a Past and Present photo.

Fouund this photo taken earlier this year I think. Must have been where you were standing Mr Fjord.

You are very welcoming thankyou

I visited your manor a year ago on a student exchange but it was not quite a Royal one unfortunately I had to use the Easyjet to get here.

I do like a Danish Pastry as a smorgessbord but I much prefer the Haddock Pasty I recently found in Glasgow yes please

I was standing in the same place but up the hill from your picture. How different it looks with the all scaffolding down.
It will look so much better when they put the windows in and harvest the wheat in the field which will be any day now

Are you not mistaken Mr Fjord. I think your student exchange must have been at least two years ago. The houses you photographed were demolished sometime ago to make way for some new buildings on the land.

Sadly the wheat crop was infested that year and we had to buy in feed for the livestock.

Sorry to hear that you had to travel 2nd class and not with your usual Royal Jet. I hear you made your fortune in the movie industry but unfortunately I am unable to purchase such films.

I will have a full selection of Danish available for your next visit and hope that you will be able to resume utilising your Royal Jet.

A bit like this Tob



With a special bell at the door or did you have to give a special password. Not that I know anything about this type of shop. Just what I hear from others you understand.

Are they any good? Does Mr Fjord make an appearance or dose he just direct the action?
