In light of this article, I thought I should announce that the company I work for is starting Danish lessons for all we 'forrij-ners'. This means I won’t have to try and fit Danish in after finishing work, which rarely happens because I can never get away in time.
I am extremely grateful. My boss was very good about it. I was going to ask others if I they'd like to attend a Saturday morning class I'd discovered but he said no one would be interested and, consequently, these in-house classes transpired thanks to him.
They're in the morning from 0800 until 1000 (on hour or mine, one of their’s), and I can’t wait.
I find I can understand so much more than I did but actually speaking gets me befuddled. It will be brilliant just getting it over and done with in the mornings without the stress of wondering whether I’ll get to class or not.

Det lyder da spændende! Held og lykke med din dansk kurser
hehe. Takker!
Jeg vil tale dansk rigtig godt. ;-)
Og jeg vil tale engelsk rigtig godt ... That'll be the day!
Oh Irene, see how I mess even the littlest things up?? I suspect there is no hope.. And, ah, I don't think you really need to worry about your English!!
The most irritating thing about speaking a second language is when the natives don't correct my mistakes. I hate when native English speakers see my grammatical errors or funny pronunciation as 'quaint and charming'. GRRRR! I much prefer to be told I am making a mistake otherwise I'll never learn. And you?
Irene I caught up with a friend the other day and he spent most of the time correcting my Danish. By the end, I wished I spoken English!! :)
OH, how I remember that stage, 'twas terribly frustrating, but just around the corner there was actually decent communication, you'r nearly there! Hang on in there!!!
