Sunday night is..

.. watching a show about obesity while eating pop corn and drinking Pepsi, without thinking about the connection.

Spring!

No, I'm not telling you to run in Swedish. The soring seem to have started in Bouremouth now. And it's not even March. I'm not complaining, it's awesome! We had some cold days, not too much rain and not much snow. Back home in Finland, there was about half a meter of snow if my sources aren't lying too much. We had maybe 2 centimeters of which none stuck to the ground. a bit different.

I like spring. I like the sun. I like the warmth. This is quite the place for me right now. Cool.

Weekend

Weekends tend to end quite quickly. This one especially so. We're still waiting to get some furniture to our flat. Like a dinner table. Eating in front of the TV is not as fun when you don't have a choice..
Also, we could use a wardrobe to put all our clothes in.

And another flat to put all our other excess stuff in..

Our new flat

If you want to see pics of our new flat, this is the place to visit:

Never mind the hurdy gurdy, just look at the pictures and drool. LOOK. AT. THE. PICTURES. AND. DROOL.!

By the way, me and Sandra has started a.. "couples blog"? No, we're not going to be all "cutie pie, me gusta!" to each other on this blog. We can do that in our own time, offline. This blog is to keep you updated on how a couple gets along in a new country, with life smiling with us. Oh yeah, the link. Here you go!

Happy reading. Yep, Life's on our side.

We've moved!

So, we've finally moved out from our old flat. Well, we still have a few bits and pieces left there, but we don't live there anymore and only have the kitchen/lounge (makes the flat sound big..) left to clean. And we have inter here at our new place. Nothing like some WiFi to make you feel at home. Soon the old place be nothing but a memory of a tedious five months. Pictures of our new flat, before we filled it with stuff we have nowhere to put at the moment, will be posted soon. Actually, I'm just going to wait for my Sandra to post them and then link to that post myself. There. I said it. I'm lazy.

Sun in the fog

We went to London to vote in the Finnish presidential election last Saturday. The sun shone beatifully through the fog and I wanted to capture what it looked like for real, which was this:

Looks a bit like the moon.. ish.

But these are what I got instead, due to camera settings and going past trees and such:

Maybe not the worst fails I've ever had to recover from.

Ikea poem

We went to Ikea yesterday, knew exactly what we wanted.
We received this today, couldn't wait to get it sorted.

Alas! What is this? This is not for us!
Called up the delivery man, hoped not to kick up a fuss.

"One of the packs is not ours",
a supervisor would call us in a few hours.

So what should we do? We want to get assembling..
I guess we could build the other pack, to keep our fingers from trembling.

Let's hope we get the other pack today,
to let every one be on their way.
