I was born in Esbjerg, Denmark.

Went to school at Stormgade and later Graadyb. After I left school from 8th.

I went to sea, sailing on DFDS m/s Colombia

First ports I visited were G'dynia and Leningrad ( now Skt. Petersburg )

Thereafter Brazil ( Rio ) Urugay and Argentina A great experience which I shall never forget. unfortunately I have no photographs from then

Later I became a soldier in the marine, stationedat Lynetten by Copenhagen

After the marine I  went fishing, by sea-net and trawler.

Until fishing became too poor, and too many restrictions came from E U. And see, today they are closing triple 999, the biggest fish industri firm in Denmark, not good for the town and harbour. Now only 8 out of 800fisher boats are left in Esbjerg.

I then worked one year at Arovit pet food factory,and after that, I got employed at  the slaugterhouse Vestjysk Slagteri.

I worked there for 12 years, until I unfortunately in the year 2000 had to stop because of a bad shoulder. After many doctor and hospital examinations, I finally got my early retirement in 2002.  I don't missmy work, but from time to time my colleauges, one quicklyfeels outside common - life, when you don't workany longer.

Now I have entered the exiting world of the computer, beeing helped by 2 lovely friends. 

Thank you
