So we are home from our brilliant weekend in Copenhagen. This morning we went for a farewell walk around the neighbourhood before setting off for the airport.
Our hotel (First Hotel Mayfair - would recommend) has some rather endearing signs on each landing, presumably to encourage you on the way up the stairs. They commence as follows:
* Welcome to the 1st floor.
* Hi you have reached the 2nd floor.* Well done you have arrived at the 3rd floor.
* Congratulations you have made it to the 4th floor!
As you can see, the notices become increasingly enthusiastic as you ascend, and each one then also encourages you to help yourself to some fruit from an adjacent bowl. Only on your arrival at the dizzying heights of the 4th floor are you invited to have some sweets!
Our journey home went smoothly; the plane wasn't full so we had an empty seat beside us, which is always pleasant.
Soon we were home to catch up on news with Ally and Davie. To my dismay it seems that there is an awful lot of football in the television due to Euro 16; the boys tell me that it will go on for several weeks, which will no doubt result in domestic disputes between me and the male members of the household over control of the television.
