Supernatural Happenings

It all began with "the phantom sheepskin mover", who frequently relocates the sheepskin from one of our Sofa's to random places in the house.

Then it was the turn of the the blanket/throw that is on the other Sofa which now frequently is found at the bottom of the stairs or under the kitchen table.

This morning after coming home from Peggy's morning walk I found our long suffering passion flower plant in the middle of the kitchen floor, some 10 metres from the window sill in the living room where it normally resides. The pot being half way between the window and the plant and the soil lying in a nice straight line between window and the plant, drawing a 2 lane highway over our living room/kitchen floor.

Creepy!

I would have taken a picture of ths carnage before I tidied up, but Mrs Longship is in Copenhagen with the Camera.

Haugtuft, from the air.

My Father in law is the sort of man that will not use new things for fear of ruining them and prefers to wear old stuff out first. This always causes a problem regarding choosing birthday presents and his 80th birthday was no different.


The decision was taken to give him something that he had to use/experience and what better than a sightseeing tour in a light aircraft. My boss, who has his own aerobatic aircraft and also has access to Tønsberg Flight clubs 2Cessnaa 172's, very kindlyagreedd to be our pilot.


We took off into a deal ofturbulencee on a bright sunny Saturday morning. Our one hour trip took us over Haugtuft, my in-laws chalet and onward towards Drøbak. On the return journey I took the controls, handing back over shortly before a quick touch and go followed by a textbook, one wheeled, cross wind landing.
