The Girl came home

April 21st, 2006

The Girls in the Cafes

The Girls in the Cafes
I admit that it is a bit crowded in my room at the moment, with all The Girls. But how cool to come home from work, and to find The Girl number 3 in my mailbox. This postcard was the very first drawing I made, a sleepless […]

“Hey, you want skunk ?”
That was one of the first things people asked me when I hopped off the underground in Camden yesterday.
“No thanks” I said. I am crazy enough in my head already without that.

Enjoy ….

I was going to go to bed early today, until I found that voice in a very interesting interview. You might want to hear it, if you like the man just a little bit.
If you don’t you can just shake your head in annoyance about yet again a post about Nighy on this weblog.
Will it […]

I’m lovin’ it

March 9th, 2006

If you happen to live in Denmark, and you do visit McDonalds somewhere the coming period, you might meet The Girl there. Not that I recommend you to eat there too often, but the 2 first The Girl cards should be available in McDonalds restaurants in Denmark. They will also appear in cafe’s soon.
If anyone […]

The phone on Monday.
“Ingrid, erhm, welcome to London …”. That voice.

Don’t denighy it

February 20th, 2006

I have no idea what it is about, because it is part 3 out of 5 of some BBC radioplay.
But oh, oh, oh, oh, oh - that voice.
And I am not the only one:
“Close your eyes and just breathe in that voice - it’s the aural equivalent of eating dark chocolate truffles dipped in […]

Front and back (click for larger)
(The webaddress is not on the front of the real card, and colours might differ a bit for the real paper cards).
It took me two whole evenings to transfer silly drawings to something that looks a bit like a postcard. Luckily I am not busy at all, only 19 days […]

Cool Brits : David Tennant

February 9th, 2006

David Tennant
This is David Tennant, and he is one cool British actor. I already wrote this post a couple of days ago, so I could use it on a day where I either had no inspiration at all, or was too busy to write. Today is a day in the second category. The Girl cards […]

I don’t know exactly where I got the inspiration from, it suddenly was there. OK this triggered me a bit, and so did this film and this one too. I got ideas from listening to music, and many of them are a direct interpretation of a song. Making them absolutely relaxes me, and is something […]

Bill Nighy
After concert 5 out of 8, very late at home (03.00), waking up with a fresh layer of snow in ?rhus, I woke up late. I watched the news, I was shocked by what’s going on in the world at the moment (without commenting on it any further). I sold my dinnertable, which means […]

Action !

February 2nd, 2006

(Michael Learns To Rock - The Actor)
When people here ask me why on earth I want to move to London, I say (apart from the whole new and fresh start thing) : film, theatre, museums. And in the look in their eyes I can see that they don’t get it. Why is the cinema in […]

I have been to quite some concerts, but this definetely was one of the best ever, if not the best. I once saw a concert with Jamie Cullum on tv, and I admit, that you quickly can get the impression that he is one spoiled brat. The way he is moving around stage, his jumping […]

I joined a theatre group in London (just got the confirmation today), and while I could use some more than 32 days to get all the practicals things in place here in Denmark, I wish I was in London tomorrow to get started with this group.
This is what “we” are going to do:

Initially we’ll be […]

Funky Kevin - let’s dance

January 19th, 2006

Now, I know that you want to know what music I am dancing on all the time right ?
And thanks to this genius of a Wordpress plugin, which looks fantastic too, you can now dance along. Press play and get moving ! And if this song doesn’t make you happy, I don’t know which one […]

This post is mainly for all the people who come here looking for information about the soundtrack of the Girl In The Cafe.
The bad news is, there isn’t any official soundtrack available. But the good news is that you can find the 2 songs that make up 90% of the soundtrack of this film.
2 […]

Zenphoto 1.0 Beta

January 13th, 2006

There has been released a new version of the very funky Zenphoto gallery. I upgraded my test Photo gallery, if you want to have a look.
Big improvements since last time:
Image and directory sorting (also with drag and drop with funky Ajax)
Comment notification
And they already had the incredibly smart on the fly editing of picture titles […]

Kevin Spacey - Cool Cat

January 8th, 2006

Sometimes you run into a movie, and it just blows you away. The Girl In The Cafe was one (oh really ? Yeah you didn’t know that did you) and today I saw Beyond the Sea. And if I didn’t already have a slight crush on Kevin Spacey, I certainly would have one now. Beyond […]
