Great news from Amal

[fish]

Sun 11:00

Dull
Boring
No snow
No flågs
No people

How good to have the real Åmål back again.

[Ian]

Sounds like a typical Bank Holiday in Adelaide.

[fish]

It's action in Åmål at the moment, 11:20 Tues now and some dude has spent the last five minutes talking on his mobile phone while walking laps on the little wall around the fish.

Walking and talking, talk about multi-skilled.

Oh.
He's gone now.

Probably whisked away by talent scouts or something.

[snaps]

Bloody Hell! 8.30 CET. You'd think at least they'd put up the flags to celebrate Agnes' birthday! Hello Amal

[fish]

I'm shocked.
And mad as hell.

Bloody absent minded beaurocrats.
How could they forget?

Quick, lots of phone calls to the town council. Maybe that'll wake them up.


Happy birthday Agnes.

[snaps]

Yay! Well at least they''ve bowed to public pressure and refilled the salmon pool in Agnes' honour.

[fish]

Yay.
Refilled the pool.


Errr, hope it wasn't just the mobile phone guy and all his drinking mates.

Ewww!

[fish]

11:20 Thursday.
Dull, overcast, raining.
Vision is not good.

But.

I think it might have been Agnes just parked her bike in front of the salmon and walked into the building carrying some papers.

Looked like her.
Possibly.
Maybe not.


Surely she would have brought Elin with her.

[fish]

Midnight Sat/Sun
Three cars parked on the side of the road.
One person riding a bike.
A white van driving past, trying to get out of town.

It's another big Saturday night in Åmål.

[fish]

Monday 10:00.
Good that all the snow is gone and that summer is on its way 'cause it looks bloody awful there at the moment.
Dull, sky full of clouds, rain, not many people wandering about, a few umberellas is all.

When's the warm, dry, sunny weather supposed to start?
When's the season of short skirts and lots of flesh?

[snaps]

The Road to Åmål:

[fish]

Strangely the road out of Åmål is always crowded.

[Ian]

[fish]

08:00 Saturday and there's a black 4WD parked by the flags.

It's wet, looks like its pouring in fact, and the 4WD has a kayak tied to its roof racks. Sort of a mini Noah's Ark.

What's he trying to tell the rest of Åmål?

Will they be installing an "underwater-cam" next?

15:30

Town bristling with activity on a sunny day....
banners, cars, people walking by.

A glorious day in Åmal.
