Nottingham it is :-)

Yes, I will actually be going to Nottingham with my sister and I'm very excited about it. I have booked a flight from Arlanda to Heathrow and then train to Nottingham from London St Pancras Intl. I have to book a taxishuttle from Heathrow to St Pancras though but that I will do when it gets closer.
The hotel where everyone is staying was of course full already so I booked at Hilton. Then I went to Tripadvisor and when I saw the photos and read the stories from that hotel I cancelled my reservation. Dirty, mould on windows and bathroom, bad views and not at all Hiltonstandard. So I booked at Crowne Plaza instead and hopefully it will be allright. It's closer to the venue and closer to the hotel where the others stay.

I have been working now for two weeks already and it's fun. I really like it. This Monday it was my turn to cook for the others. I think I have told you about our "competition". Every Monday one of us cook for the others and then we got to grade the different dishes after each 10-week period. You don't win any price just the honour.
I made a "small crayfishparty" consisting of pie with Västerbottencheese (Jo and Marv it was the cheese I brought last time I was over) and fresh potatoes. On top I had crayfish tails and shrimps garnished with fresh dill. To go with this a big sallad with avocados, fetacheese, red onion, sallad, tomatoes, cucumber and squeezed lemon. They really liked it and so did I :-) Sorry I don't have a photo but I have at work.

Also this week was Helen's birthday on Sunday. We went to Mom and celebrated her so that Mom also could join in. We bought cake and had coffee and chatted away. Very nice.

Yesterday I was in Norrtälje and visited my good friend Anne for our usual lunch and treatment. It's always so nice to meet her and we always have a lot to talk about.

Today I went to the hairdresser and had my hair cut because tomorrow I'm going to attend the Christening of Mandy's sister Johannas babyboy who will have the name Love. I'm driving Jonas as well. Speaking of Jonas and H.E.A.T - no news about new singer yet. Hopefully they will have a new singer shortly. I will let you know as soon as I get the news.

I hope you all will have a wonderful weekend with lots of sunshine and NO WASPS!!!

Anyone??

I wonder if anyone can see and read my blogg? I haven't had any comments in so long that's why I ask. Erik didn't win a Grammy last night but he had a blast and he and his fiancé looked just great! Another Swede, Ludwig Göransson, won 3 prices though. Congrats to him.

Hello December

This month started with a tax education, yeah :-) in Uppsala. Since we don't have a goverment yet due to the chaotic political scene after the election, no one actually knows what's going to happen with taxes. It's just guesses. The day after we had Christmas celebration at the Rheumatic district of Stockholm. It was a lot of fun, good food and nice to meet everyone :-) And on Saturday it was time for Christmas lunch with my own Rheumatic local association. We were around 30 members incl. Eddie and Mandy. We had a lot of good food and we had the party at a local hotel here in Väsby in Bredden. There were two other children there so I bought them each a Christmas gift and they were very happy for what they got from the Rheumatic Santa Claus. Me decorating a board member with a honoray sign Eddie and the palm tree Some of the Christmas bord I haven't been feeling well for a couple of months.
