The Funen Village - Denmark 17th to 19th Century 

Happy Ostara, ÞúnráR.

It floored me!

Hello Kati, viele grüße nach Deutschland, I hope you have a happy Ostara :)

When I have the opportunity to go there again, I will take you into some of their houses, and tell you what we call this and that thing in Danish.

@@Skjalden Thanks because it is confusing when he said things like the extra room to the kitchen where they did the washing etc was called a scullery because that is the English word unless it is a shared word?

@@colinp2238 I doubt that scullery is a shared word, it is called a bryggers in Danish.

@@Skjalden I did not think it was but I was trying to illustrate my point, the narrator should have distinguished that is the English term for it.

@@colinp2238 Yes, you are right about that.

Great concept! They could all in honesty tell the wife they needed to use money for beer. Then they paid beer fines to each other and at the time, beer only were able to last a few weeks before it became bad (until the Danish brewer Jakobsen,, that founded Carlsberg, invented a stable yeast that prolonged it to a year or more. Same yeast became the base for all large global breweries the following decades, they all got their yeast from Jakobsen!) and thus they had to do something collectively to not end up with old beer.....! So they thus also in all honesty could go home to the wife next day with a headache and say they had to do what they had to do. Pure business off course. Would look bad to leave the others behind to eradicate it own their own. Not all "middle age thinking" were backwards LOL.

@@Mike-zx1kx didn't know that about the yeast thing with the ale. Neat fact there, thanks!

We sometimes have a tendency to cherry-pick things we liked from the past. I think we should implement more things that we want from the past, instead of dreaming what once was.
