media sloppiness
Staggering how professionals employed in the communications business still manage to mess up. One would think with all the modern tech, digital pics instantly communicated,internet access, that NEWSER would have managed to read the article they were reporting about in the Swedish online newspaper www.thelocal.se
Had they done so they would have seen a correct picture of a Swedish ELG and not a picture of an American ELK.

Volvo. Where are the gloom merchants now?
11 months ago I wrote on this blog :
I did not agree then, or now, that Li Shufu and Geely would be bad for Volvo. So check out a few headlines:

Autumn already
Morning mists and fuller colours. I guess it must be Autumn.
Strange how the Cherry trees have all been losing their leaves so early this year. Not just with us either,some friends 35 km away have also reported the same.

I LIKE Uddevalla…a lovely town
You can hardly think you are in the middle of a town
and it boasts what I think is one of the most beautiful bridges in the world

perspectives on maturity
…and if you read the article you find that drug use and smoking is also on the decline.
Interesting that so many teens are 'incredibly tired of their parents drinking so much'.

Farewell Mary Pickford
For over 21 years our little treasured Mary Pickford walked our life with us
Today, 24th June, we had to say goodbye.
It was a merciful but hard parting….
But our hearts are full of thanks for all the treasures of memories.

Windows 11
So yesterday it was down to Långås to collect my latest order for replacement windows in our home.
As you see the small windows above need replacement, having already done the larger windows below.
We saved almost 60% on the cost when we fitted these easily fitted pvc windows
PVC windows are the windows where sales increase the most in Sweden today, in percentage terms. In Europe, these windows have had a large market for many years, from the Mediterranean Sea in the south to the Baltic Sea in the north.In Britain, the product has 80% of the replacement market.
It is the unique properties of the product - climatic conditions such as salt water, wind, snow, rain and sun do not affect the window and they do not require maintenance, that makes this type of window so popular.
This is where I have been buying for 3 years now – and I get a good deal, friendly service, an excellent product. Menta Fonstner

Car repairs
A little over 2 years ago I got a fantastic deal on my (now) 12 year old Mitsubishi Space Wagon from Motorcentrum in Trollhatan
So I had a little problem with my anti-roll bar connections, which is not at all surprising considering the hammering these things get over the gravel roads in my area. Nothing much to complain about, the car is 12 years old and has cost me very little in 2 years.
So I go here to get my cars fixed. I’ve been going here for 15+ years and have always been satisfied with the service, friendliness and the excellent (low) price.
If you need them you find Dalslands Motor HERE

Lofty males
The AVERAGE male is now 10 cms taller than the comparison in 1900.
This probably accounts for all the neck injuries in males over 50….they are so busy stressing to talk to youngsters about bad diet (pizza, hamburgers, etc) as they have to look up all the time to these teenage 'giants'

Gallnas Easter Sunday morning
The really great thing about this time of the year is the way in which beauty is tantalizingly revealed a little at a time.
A journey into beauty and magnificence should not be an F1 race, but a gradual ascent into ecstasy.
