Oslo, London, and home again

18 August 2007

The witching hours pre-dawn at Heathrow are amazingly different than just 8pm at the very same place…it was an absolute zoo then, and an empty desert now! For anyone following along, I did get to the Windsor Castle Pub in Notting Hill, and my second-best batch of cider, the March 24th batch I brought for Teje and brought some small bottles for myself, is in my opinion BETTER than the Addlestones cloudy cider it was inspired by! Granted, my first memory of Addlestones was sweeter than tonight, so it could be the differences in batches, but I’ll call that a success for Brittahytta Brewery! :)

28 Hours in Oslo

Tales of Thursday

16 August 2007

Since I repacked earlier today, tonight has been computer night! Tobias was looking for the punk covers we’d listened to in the car today and loading them into my laptop, while I was figuring out why Teje could never run iChat on their Mini…well iChat was corrupted somehow and they don’t have their Tiger install disks, so I was able to copy iChat from my laptop to CD and load it onto their machine fine…we’re just stuck trying to edit the all accounts name from Tobias back to Teje! Ah well…after such a stormy night and morning, it had cleared up to beautiful again by lunchtime…why couldn’t that have been yesterday too? heh… 😉

Tales of Thursday

rain rain go away!

15 August 2007

This morning gave us no incentive to get out of bed, let alone leave the house, since it was awful blustery rain! Teje & I finally left with Sixten around noon, after I got a lesson on all the quirks of the ancient 1962 Ford, since I was to be the driver today since Teje has no license and Tobias wasn’t coming with us. No power steering, and it was probably a long as our old 1977 Chevy van, so it wasn’t so bad, but I did err on the side of caution on the curves due to the rain and the baby in the car!

A little rain won’t make us melt…

To Whom It May Concern

15 August 2007

Regardless of the topic and what your opinion is, it is still rude to sign up an email that is not your own for mailing lists and to send articles from my own email address to me. If you have something to say, say it in the open, not hiding in the shadows.

Thank you.

EDIT: And signing me up for text message alerts on similar lists is even worse since that COSTS ME MONEY. Quit it now.

Strolling Around Sarpsborg

14 August 2007

Another relaxing morning thankfully, breakfast with brunost & other cheese again, nice bread, yogurt & tea, then after drying my jeans the rest of the way with my hairdryer from doing laundry last night, Teje, Sixten & I were on our way to see how far we could walk.
