I have packed most of my things for my trip and am very anxious to get going. My friend Jerome from Ireland runs the Irish House, my favorite pub anywhere, in Aalborg and in true Irish fashion, we take the piss out of each other. I have a joke that ought to rattle his Irish cage and can't wait to tell it to him. Here it is:

An Englishman, Scotsman, and Irishman are traveling together in the USA and stop at a pub. The bartender serves each a pint.
Englishman: You have a fine establishment here, but at my local in London, after the fourth pint, the fifth is on the house!
Bartender: That's not bad.
Scotsman: Och! 'Tis nothing! At me favorrrite pub, after the third pint, the fourth is on the hoose!
Bartender: Wow, even better!
Irishman: At me favorite pub, the forst point is on the house, the second, the t'ird, the fourth, and even the fifth! And if ye want t'get laid, they'll take ye roight upstairs and get the job done!
Bartender: Seriously?! That's happened to you?
Irishman: Welllll, not to me, but everytoime me sister goes, it happens to her!

:LOL:

I have most of my things packed for the trip save for last minute items to put away like my razor. I want a fresh shave before I go! This will be the last night in my own bed for over 6 weeks, but I can hardly wait! The apartment I rent in Løkken feels like a second home and the bed there is so nice compared to the tiny one in the hotel in Aalborg. It's not uncomfortable, just small, so when I roll over, I often wake up having thumped the wall with my elbow. Aalborg is a great city, but it is a city and noisy. Some middle eastern dude in the building right next to the hotel loves to play his damned music at 2 am. I'd love to set a speaker against his wall in the morning and set Inagaddadavida to play all day on YouTube to fix his red wagon.

And every year, at least two nights I am there, in the building across the tiny parking lot for 6 cars, around 1 am or later, some guy gets his gf to moaning like a banshee. I feel like yelling out the window, "Get her! Get her!" but from the sound of things, he's doing exactly that. My first night in the beach apartment with the only sound being the surf and the gentle ticking of my alarm clock, I just melt into that bed like butter and am out within a minute after saying my prayers.

I need this trip and badly. I am tired of feeling like my life is just one treatment to the next. No Ed the Cancer Patient over in Denmark, I will live again!

That's the spirit, Ed. Have an awesome time man

Thanks, and I fully intend to enjoy myself immensely. Once the chemo gets out of my system and the side effects fade, I might be doing a happy dance.

Have a great time Ed!!!!

Its going to be wonderful! Have a great time will look forward to reports when you can check in with us saps. Oh and a pic or 2 of that bar and a big buxom babe if its not to much trouble.

I saw one last year and got her on my video. She worked in a sort of German-style pub. Yes, I will be going back to see if she is still there! I will have my ipad along and make an update here and there.

Have a great time Ed! If anyone deserves a relaxing trip, it is you.

Enjoy the trip Ed.

Have a blast!!!!!!

Have a great trip, Ed!

Have fun, and a safe trip!

:clap: - Have a great time. You deserve it!

Have a great trip, Ed!
