@Camlarsch Den mandagste mandag af dem alle, den første mandag efter ferien. God arbejdslyst!

@AgatheBleibtDaheim Tak i lige måde. I hope the heat is bearable!

@svedigtype I'm surprised to learn people think I go out to live-stream a photo at 6am every Monday! Same as a postcard in a shop, the postcards are taken in advance I include the time frame and context in the Alt Text.

@svedigtype Winter sunsets are the best!

Glædelig mandag. Just sending you a postcard from #Aarhus, just to wish you a good, simple, calm week.

I suppose if stonework absolutely must make an eerie ghostly face peer out at you from the dark, then a church crypt from the year 1060 is the right place to do it

@webidebi Cool photo of a cool place. I really did think it was a model railway village at first glance. Lovely shot.

”It was some time before Aunt Deirdre noticed that their father was gone – if she ever did notice he was gone – it was not a subject she ever discussed. Their mother was too sick for such talk. Besides, in those days, men were not expected to be around: the difference between married and deserted could be the seven hours your husband spent asleep in the bed.”

@AgatheBleibtDaheim Danke - I hope you have a good and not too unbearably hot week

@jimkennedy Looks so lovely and peaceful. I hope you all enjoyed the festival!

@dutypo Morgen

Glædelig mandag. Just sending you a postcard from #Aarhus, just to say that I hope this week treats you kindly.

@MieKNielsen Åh nej. Jeg håber, at torsdag snart opfører sig bedre. Og at VVSeren snart kommer!

"It doesn’t look like anything made for war; it looks rather poetic."

It does! You see it, admire it, admire the craftwork of it, admire the near-lyrical sound, then get startled by the contrast when you read the explanatory plaque headed 'Celtic trails of blood'. That goes on to describe the 'brutal chaos' that follows the sounding of the 'ominous war trumpet'.

Making it so lovely, the carved head
- perhaps that was indeed to instill pride in the warriors, as you say.

I was mesmerised by this celtic war trumpet, but even more mesmerised when I saw a video of someone playing it. Until I heard it, I'd have assumed it made a monotone bellow. But the carnyx played varied, lighter notes. It sounded musical. Which somehow made the thought even more terrifying, of being gathered around the fire, telling stories one Iron Age night, and suddenly you hear this beautiful sinister music in the dark air, telling you a horde of Celtic warriors are about to attack.

@Graygeek Velkommen til nabolaget!

“From tee-shirt to towel. These hand-towels are made from 100% recycled textile including the museum’s used uniforms and work clothes. Using one hand-cloth instead of three sheets of disposable towel saves 30% in C02."

Nice initiative at Moesgaard Museum. I happened to come across it just after hearing about the new EU rule that prohibits companies from destroying unsold new clothes. I was reminded of the fact: ‘It takes 1,500 litres of water to produce 1 tee-shirt.'
