Summer is here - at last!
It took quite some time this year! And to be honest, it started to feel like we would never get a summer to speak of again. Last summer was more or less cancelled and then we got autumn already in late August, and then it seemed to be autumn all the way into this May. No winter, no snow no nothing, just this gray, overcast drizzling emo weather that drove you nuts.

But now we finally got summer, with sunshine and warmth. And then we Stockholmers start our pilgrimage out in the parks with our picnic bags or to the outdoor cafés or the beaches. It's still a bit cold in the water to bath yet, but that doesn't disencourage all the people. Some still jump in and then they jump out screaming

And when you walk by the Djurgården canal you'll see the boats line up just like cars in the rush hour Quite a funny sight.

Kiriban time again
Yeah, I'm closing in on 35 000 in another 500 watches. So I'm doing another kiriban, same procedure as last time: Printscreen the # 35 000 or the closest and put it in your scraps and then note me, and I'll come and have a look. In return I'll make a fantasy pic just for you! It can be either:

Just a picture featuring a fairytale/legend/myth/urban legend/similar you choose

A picture featuring you (I'll use a portrait of you)

A picture featuring your stock. It can be either a special picture or something I chose from your gallery

A combination of any or all of the points above

Terrorists at the nuclear plant?
The other day the alarm went off at the Oskarshamn nuclear plant on the Swedish east coast. A worker was caught with bomb materials in a plastic bag, trying to enter the plant. He and his friend were instantly interned and soon the news crews were all over the place and the rumours were flying around with lightning speed. Al Qaeda? Iraqi terrorists? Palestinians? Followers of Dart Sauron of Voldemort?

Well it turned out that these rogues were connected to organized crime of the biker kind. One of them was a criminal connected to a hang-around club to Hells Angels. And while people out there kept shitting in their pants I sort of breathed with relief. OK these orcs are bad but I can't see what blowing up a nuclear plant would benefit Hells Angels. Or even take it as hostage. They would be hunted down like the plague they really are and all their dirty little business would be gone in a zap.

No, I think the blokes were intending to use the explosives for blowing up something more mundane. A bank machine perhaps. We were not looking at another Chernobyl here, not at all. But I am glad that the security worked. After all we Swedes have been accused of taking security and terrorist matters a bit too light-hearted. But I hope that impression will change now. And that anyone wanting to bomb a nuclear plant around here will have to think again.
