Arty facts
Pete went on a business trip to Istanbul this morning, so it was just the 4 of us to embrace the first day of official wintertime...As usual when the clocks go back, the theory that goes "we get an extra hour of sleep" is only valid for those who do not...

Another Special Poppy

Another Special Poppy
The small paper poppies that seem ubiquitous in Britain as this time of year do not exist at all in Sweden. I thought I'd make an attempt at creating my own. I have both admiration and respect for the Poppy Appeal initiative, a symbolical way to pay a...

Scary stuff

Scary stuff
The sky looked white and angry this morning...and just before 8am, it started snowing! Big flakes, lots of them, blizzard n'all!!! Incredible! There was a proper layer of white all over the city in no time! Luckily this was just a passing reminder of...

Glorious fall

Glorious fall
