Great news from Amal

[snaps]

There must be loadsa wedding pics around on the net. I guess as both Bex and Alex are allegedly rather anti-royalist they didn't get an invite.

I guess my invitation got held up in the post.

Crikey, Viktoria's changed in the last twelve years, eh?

and that cody guy certainly has one self-satisfied smirk! Though I guess it's not everyday you land a princess?

Typically our wheelchair friend to broadcast her wedding day live nationwide, not mentioning blocking half the city, having a huge parade all around town with millions of people waving happily at her... Jeez Vicks, all of that just to beat agnes' and elin's coming-out-of-the-toilet scene?

Not even close.

Nice of them to try though.

Hope they didn't block your half of the city.
That's a sure way to turn a people away from the monarchy.

...I'm going outside to play.

Just remember Snapsie, play safe even if you can't play nice.

09:45 Thurs and there's a big orange crane and two workvans and guys doing stuff in the empty fish pond and over on the grassy riverbank, and now some stupid dork has just parked his car where the crane needs to go to pick up more stuff from the side of the road but it's OK 'cause they made him get back in and move his car, now the crane's back with the next load.

Huff, puff, puff, wheeze.

It's all go in Åmål today.

Windy day with clouds running fast over Åmal, flags rolling in the wind. A lot of cars driving around... I counted several people on foot strolling, crossing the road, pushing a baby buggy, etc.
And a bike is parked near the fourth pole. An electric day for Åmal!

Must be tourist season!

10:40 Monday.
Bit of rain about today.
Lots of cars, lots of people walking, lots of great big blue busses.

Don't the flowerpots look pretty?

Rats.
You mentioned them and I can't remember if they were there the last time I watched the webcam!

[fish]

They were Bruno.

You probably just dozed off a little quicker than I did.

Åmål seems to do that to me too.

YOu have to see this right now. 19.15 CET. There is a dragonfly trapped in a bit of spiders web in the top right hand corner of the camera field. It looks like a mooonster attacking Amal

[fish]

03:15 Wed and I guess spiders don't work at night.
Seems to have cleaned up her meal and left a beautiful view.


Poor dragonfly.

[fish]

11:00 Friday and Åmål looks about as exciting as Ådelaide will be tomorrow. Cold, wet, windy.

Is summer over already?
Did I miss all the short skirts?
What happened to all the parties by the side of the river this year?

Where's all the action?



Fucking Åmål.
