My Birthday

Posted on by

Celebrated my 37th year with a fine present from Jo, or rather Freya : a book I’d been wanting to get for quite a while, Trigger Happy by Steven Poole. As the title subtley suggests it’s a book about video games.

Celebrated further by going to the local pizza restaurant and watching Wolves get soundly beaten (2-0) by Arsenal in the FA Cup. I hadn’t expected a black-country victory ; it was nice just to see them play.

Celebrated even further by going home and continuing to drink beer.

Celebrated most of all by waking up without feeling any ill-effects.

More birthdays, please.

We have now finally got our act together and are now members of a carpool here in Stockholm. Not really having the finances or wanting the hassle of parking, repairs, taxes etc this was definately the best option for us.
Although owned by Statoil , City Car Club turned out the best alternative having 2 cars just a block away. Freedom when you need it 🙂

False Teeth?

Posted on by

The last few weeks Freya has been giving us signs of toothage. She’s been drooling lots, and biting and chewing things, though still in good humour.

Despite being able to feel a couple of sharp edges through her gums, not much else is happening in the denture department ; the first tooth started to be felt at around Christmas.

Still, we have no worries about her pearlies, since Jo must fulfill her (and most of our building’s) calcium quota.
