after 50 years….
THAT Mini still amazes. There's some new – and old ones – still around Dalsland. It always gives me such a nostalgic thrill to see them
Funny Summer
It seems to have been a strange summer this year here in Dalsland. Some really freaky electric storms and it must have been a real puzzle for the weather forecasters, who seem to have been off-target quite a bit this summer. Unusually so it's fair to say.
But, as you may know, my wife is from Rognan in Saltdal, North Norway. They've had a pretty weird summer as well……..but this has to be about as weird a thing as I've ever heard in this respect….
Yep. September and the apple tree is in blossom…again! If it carries on like this they'll be picking pineapples in December up there inside the Arctic Circle (Rognan lies within the Arctic Circle).

take your boots off to count!!!!!!
Obviously I missed something here. The article clearly says '8 out of 10 Swedish Officers'. But 990 were questioned of which only 70% replied.
So:
990 x 70% = 693
80% of 693 ( 8 out of 10) = 554
554 as a percentage of the TOTAL AMOUNT (990)
who were sent questionnaires = 56%
Clearly there seems reason for low confidence in the Officer's Association who carried out this survey…or in those who have reported it
56% is NOT 80%
