OBAMA PAINTING AS BIRTHDAY PRESENT TO TRUMP


JUNE 13:

As many of you will know I think birthdays are very important.  That is why we should always remember to greet each other in different ways at their occasion 😊

Tomorrow – June 14 – Donald Trump will turn 74.

And whatever each of us think about him – and we certainly do ☹  - I also think that we have to do something at that occasion.

One of the “surprising” things Trump has done recently is to refuse to install a painting of his predecessor, Barack Obama, in The White House.  This has always been a nice tradition done by previous American presidents.

Therefore, we should – in my view – all mark the president’s birthday tomorrow by putting the Obama painting on all our social media sites ( Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, etc. ).  Or wherever you want to put it. And encourage others to do the same!

If really many of us do that it is my feeling that Trump will feel, that he and his birthday are not forgotten 😊

We could write with the Obama portrait: 

Dear Mr. President,  Isn’t there something you have forgotten…

Enclosed the Obama portrait.

SHIP ELEVATORS IN BELGIUM

I have earlier written about Belgian culture. Today I want to tell you about Belgium’s INDUSTRIAL CULTURE.   In the beginning of the 19 th century the southern part of Belgium, Wallonia, was the most industrialised part of Europe – apart from England. It was based upon coal mines, iron and steelworks and a big network of internal waterways for transport.   East of Mons you can f.ex. see a former huge industrial complex, which today is an art museum.   The owners in 1810 built a lot of houses for their workers around the factory.   These houses are still there. The place is called GRAND HORNU. A very special side of the Walloon industrial culture was and are the so-called SHIP ELEVATORS.   They are huge elevators, which can lift ships up and down from different heights of the canals in the area. The first one in Houdeng-Goegnies was build in 1888. It can lift ships 15 meters up and down. Three more were added in 1917. Each of them can lift 17 meters. These old elevators are

AMERICA IS COMING BACK TO THE WORLD !

NOVEMBER 24: This is the day! The day when president Trump finally three weeks after the American elections de facto accepts that Joe Biden has won the elections.   And won by a big margin.   So, now US is coming back to the world.   The nominations president-elect Biden is doing shows that he is choosing experienced and professional people, who know what they will be responsible for.   This is also great news for Europe.    The European-American relations will now come back on the track – as real allies, not as sort of adversaries, as Trump preferred to see them.   EU president Charles Michel yesterday congratulated Biden with his victory and invited him to a summit meeting with EU in Brussels next year, after he has taken over in January. The EU with its 448 mio. inhabitants and the US with 328 mio. have a lot in common.   Their mutual trade is huge. In 2019 it was 720 billion dollars – which is about one third of all international trade. We will certainly see much more bilater

MY FIRST SCHOOL DAY - April 2, 1952

MY VERY FIRST SCHOOL DAY -  April 2, 1952: Today ( April 2, 2021 )   it is exactly 69 – sixtynine – years ago, since I started going to school. This is a long time ago. It was in 1952. But I still remember it, as if it were yesterday. Can you understand that ? It was a wonderful, sunny morning.   I had for such a long time been looking forward to going to school.   Ok, I could already read and I could also write reasonably.   But I wanted to learn much more. And quickly! I knew that we were 4 kids in our village, who should start that day. Two girls and two boys. I knew the other three well. Remember, we lived in a small country village, where everybody knew everybody. The first school day was always sort of a party to us.   Our parents came along to the school on that first day. And we all had put our nicest clothes on, of course. Our farm was about 1 ½ km from the school.   We walked there, my parents and I.   On the way I could see that the three others were in front of
