Update

Since last time I wrote I have been to see my friend Anne in Norrtälje. Very nice as usual with lots of chat, laughter and of course good food. On Saturday I attended the premiere of Spader Dam (Queen of Spades) by Tjajkovskij. A wonderful opera and very modern since it's about a man that gets addicted to gamling so much that he loses the love of his life and finally commits suicide. The leading man wasn't that good because most of the time the music overplayed his voice. It wasn't strong enough to reach out. The music and the orchestra on the other hand was magnificent. I didn't come home until 11.45 PM just in time to see Sweden ending up in 22 place (worst in I don't know how many years) in Eurovision song contest. No, we would have been better off if we had sent H.E.A.T to the Eurovision I think. Monday was Hasse's namesday, Erik, and as a gift from me he received a trip to Tällberg with overnight stay in a suite with full board, tickets for Dalhalla to see
