H.E.A.T in China!

 H.E.A.T arriving in China

Yes, you read it right. H.E.A.T is at the moment on tour in China. And what a tour that is! I mean 11 gigs in 12 days and only 1 day off. That is a hard schedule they have. China isn't the smallest country and it's very far to go. They actually cross almost the whole of China from the north to the west, south and east. It must be totally fascinating and I know they would at least go on the Chinese wall but I hope they see much more than that.


 Setting up for one of the gigs

Here's their schedule every day:

05.30 am -                  Wake up, pack your stuff and get ready to go.
06.00 am -                  Go to airport or train station.
07.00 am - 11.00 am - In the air or on the rails.
11.00 am - 12.00 pm   Arrive in a new city and check in at hotel.
01.00 pm - 05.00 pm - Eat lunch, take a trip downtown and/or sleep.
05.00 pm - 07.00 pm - Sound check & dinner
07.00 pm - 08.30 pm - Prepare for show.
08.30 pm - 10.00 pm - Show time!
10.00 pm - 11.00 pm - Signing session after show.
11.00 pm - 05.30 am - Do whatever you like but you're getting up at 05.30                             to do the same routine all over again.



 Pig brain and other strange food

They also eat a lot of strange stuff like lamb lungs, pig brain....

I wouldn't try that if I knew what it was but according to Jonas and the others pig brain was actually good?!


 H.E.A.T in a street somewhere in China


Here's a photo of a real Chinese building. It's beautiful and very different don't you think?

That's it for now about H.E.A.T. What have I been up to since last then? Well it's a new month for starters. And I have been working very hard, like every month when invoicing. I have also been having a meeting with the party committé in the Rheumatic association where I am the convener(are you surprised?)

On our agenda was planning the Christmas celebrations. Well, you have to begin in time :-)

After that me and my very good friend went to dinner at Hasselbacken before enjoying the musical Spök (Ghost). It's a Swedish musical and it's very funny with good music, dancing and singing. I can truly recommend it to anyone that wants a good musical.


 Scenography from Spök

This weekend has been calm with no "must do's". Just relaxing, out for a walk in the forest with Emil, reading the new book from Jonas Jonasson (have you read the 100-year old....yet Jo?)

Next week will be full again, as usual, so it has been nice to regain some strength. 

Take care and have a great week.

Oh my God

The Christmas smorgasbord I just realized I haven't written anything since November 23! But I can tell you I haven't been lazy but there has been so much going on that I haven't had the strength to write. I had meetings that week and I was supposed to be at a conference hotel for lunch that Friday but I was to tired I had to cancel it. So instead I baked safron buns (!) and made chocolate troufles with ginger.  The ferry On December 1 it was Staffan's birthday (Hasse's oldest son) and I worked and worked at my job. Thursday I and Hasse were supposed to go to the theatre and see Come again Charlie, which was one of my birthday presents - thank you Pär and Brita. But Hasse wasn't feeling well so instead I asked Linnea, my bonus grand daughter if she wanted to go and she was very happy that I asked. We had a really good time and the play, which was a comedy, was funny but also with a message which made you laugh and then stop. It was about the si...

Sad day

Tonight Olle, my adoptive father that has been like my father almost all my life, died just before 9PM. It was very quick. I talked to the nurse at 6PM and everything was calm then. Just a bit over 2 hours later she called and said he's gotten worse. I asked how and she said his skin changed colour and that he could have 10 minutes or 10 hours left. I was just trying to get to my sister on the phone and ask her if we should go down when the phone rang again just 15 minutes afterwards and it was the nurse telling me that it was over. He went very peacefully and in his sleep. At the end he was given a lot of morphine so he wouldn't be in pain, which he wasn't. I called my sister but we both felt that we already had said our goodbyes and therefore didn't go down to say a last goodbye. He is probably up there somewhere looking down and sensing our feelings. We haven't been able to reach our mother yet and we probably won't tonight so I will tell her when I go there ...

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.
