Great news from Amal

[fish]

..it's the (almost) continuous northern summer daylight...

Sun 14:30 and it's bright and sunny, but then it is daytime.

I made a point of looking about 13 hours ago (around 09:00 here) just to see what it was like then, and it's very eerie. Quite dark but there was just a tinge of light to the sky, sort of like the night sky in a big city, not what you'd expect from a country town. Very strange.

That'll keep me watching Åmål for the next month or so.

Clear blue sky.
Pink glow from the rising sun.
Looks like a beautiful day in the making.

And....It's 02:49 on Monday morning.

[snaps]

Typical. 9.30 CET and Sun shines in Amal while its an overcast bank holiday Monday here. Grrr.

No wonder the banks have to charge such exorbitant fees, it's just so they can afford to take a holiday.

11:15 Mon now in Åmål.
Bright sunny day.
But not nearly as nice as it was at dawn with the pink and orange glow of sunlight painting a beautiful picture.

Round 12:30 in Sweden and it seem to be a bright sunny day everywhere.

But nothing is happening.
Sooooo boring.

Why aren't there web-cams all over the subway network so we can look out for imprtant people,
like Alexandra, or Triddy.

By the way, have you noticed that most web-cams only have an updated image every 15 - 60 seconds?
How is that allowed to happen when the cam in a little town like Åmål updates every 1 - 2 seconds?
Mean to say.



God I'm bored.

It's because life in Amal is just so much more thrilling than a big city, no one wants to miss a second.













Isn't it?

Round 06:00 Sunday morning and I thought the place was under attack by giant 8 legged alians.


Seems to be a spider setting up home near the cam and it ran across the lens just as I arrived.

Nicely in focus too.

Scared the crap out of me.

[Ian]

I for one welcome our new giant spider overlords.

Kent Brockman?
I always wondered where you went after Springfield.


I also welcome our new overlords.

08:00 Saturday.

Pretty flowerboxes.
Pity no one's around to look at them.

Where the hell's all the shoppers lining up for the sales to open.

[snaps]

09:00 CET. It's cloudy with meatballs.

[fish]

01:00 Sunday and most of the Saturday night crowd have gone.
Just a few people jaywalking and a few cars trying to thin them out.

But through the clouds the sky is light blue.
Weird. Don't think I could get used to summer in those lattitudes.

0.40 Monday
Nobody around (tomorrow is a working day)
A strange twilight/dawn lights the sky

But through the clouds the sky is light blue.
Weird. Don't think I could get used to summer in those lattitudes.

Weird? Yes. In my scandinavian travels I got used to go to sleep in full daylight, indeed.
But I wouldn't go there in winter, no!

Well it is the day after the day after the heir to the throne, Princess Victoria, got married to her personal trainer *coughs* aka cody, who used to be the Moderator on here, but has now gone on to greater things.

As we see Amal has really put the flag out. No expenses spared. A coupla flower boxes and that's it.

Wouldn't it have been great if Vicky had come out as lesbisk? The Prime Minister of Iceland is lesbisk.

Sadly (since Edward II of England) royals have to pretend to be fuck-wholesome even when they're not.

I reckon Oz will be the first country to elect a Queen. Queen Priscilla of Australia.

Not our Ian hooking up with Viktoria in the wheelchair

I always thought our Deputy Prime Minister Julia Gillard was in line for that gig.
