Swedish Grillplate

I can tell you that it tasted just as good as it looks! ;-)

Apache

He's a cutiepie!

Snowdrops in the garden

Global warming? What global warming?!

For Jeni: Deutsche Bank thermos mug

Remember this! I still have it and use the darn thing! I miss our cups of tea! :-)

Just so you know...

...this is how I'm looking right now. 30 is taking its toll! :-P

Chilling with Billy

Billy likes to cuddle on the sofa with me while vegging infront of the TV.

Caipirinhas!

Mmmmm, my fave!

Bolton Wanderers Reebok Stadium

The home of my fave football club who are currently not playing very well in the Premier League.

Daddy!

It's always great to see my dad. He's such a star!

Bingo!

When in the UK one should experience a game of bingo and waste some hard-earned cash

Little Robin Red Breast

Sheltering from the snow. Sweet!

Thyme gets a new outlook on life

Merry Christmas!

Wishing everyone joy and happiness today and every day!

IKEAgatan

Was at Ikea's head office in Småland last week and the street sign always makes me smile :-)

The birdhouse proves popular!!

Now that we've got the birdhouse up, a feeding frenzy is upon us and the word (or should that be "tweet") is out! Good job we bought a 5kg sack of bird food!!

Kitchen

Now we've added the final touches :-D All we need now are new cupboard doors.

Sony Ericsson Julbord

Gordon goes "cheesy grin" style. The food was delish at the Grand Hotel in Lund, especially the Ris à la Malta! Highly recommendable!

Lucia - SonyEricsson 2007

Every year in Sweden on Dec 13th we celebrate Lucia, which is a festival of song and light to brighten up our dark lives in the midst of Winter. And today we had a little "Luciatåg" at work, complete with Lussekattor (saffron buns), glögg and ginger biscuits. :-)

Ready for your operation?

Finished! Part 2!

And on the other side behind the cooker! ;-D

WELL chuffed!

Finished!

We like! :-D

Kitchen tiling

Yes we're at it again. Just when we thought we were finished with DIY we decided to have a bash at the kitchen tiling

Make a little birdhouse in your soul

The little tweeters will have somewhere dry to collect their food over winter now that we've made them a birdhouse food table ;-) Christel finished off the painting today and put the roof on :-D

Stairway to heaven ;-)

We thought we'd bling up the staircase a little, and it's turned out really well, although this photo doesn't do it justice.

Benjamin

Don't let the cute smile fool you, at 1 year old he's already got a cool calculating mind and can get whatever he wants! ;-p

Gothenburg - Jensen's Böfhus, Spare Ribs

Hur i helvete åt vi allt vi gjorde?!

Universeum, Gothenburg - Rainforest

And some monkeys like to hide in the trees.... ;-)))

Universeum, Gothenburg - Rainforest

Some species like to blend into their surroundings and have adopted new styles of camouflage! ;-)

Universeum, Gothenburg - Shark Tales

Hey ickle wickle fishy.......!!

Hotel Tylösand

The end of the first day of the conference and we can still find more room for food and drink!

Office view

The new office view over the docks in Malmö, on a cold autumn day.

Gåsagolf

Another super shot by Annika ensures our 2nd place in today's "goose" golf competition, which earned us 2 chickens each and a bag of carrots! Yoohoo! ;-))))

Autumnal garden

Christel has been cutting back bushes and other flowering plants, while I've been raking up the leaves in the cold autumn weather. Somehow I get the feeling I'll be filling a few more bags before the end of the month!

Smörgåsbord

Enjoying a fine Swedish spread.....as well as a good bottle of the fermented grape! ;-)

Relaxing at home

Carole secretly admitted to like watching Christel screw. The dirty bugger! :-P

Kullaberg

A walk in the nature reserve revealed many native varieties of inhabitants as well as ones of foreign extraction ;-)

More Kullaberg

On the edge of the world....almost! ;-) And that jacket makes me look huge. Mental note: Buy new jacket!

Kullaberg

Christel and Carole looking a tad windswept yesterday on the Kullaberg peninsula

Flying the flag!

Carole is coming to visit today so we thought it's only appropriate that we raise the Union Jack on our flagpole (as that's the kind of welcome she would appreciate)

The "Queen" will be in residence shortly :-ppp

Teddy-tastic!

The owner of this mean Honda Goldwing shows their softer side.

Teddy also gets a ride! ;-)
