Smooth Nectar Originally uploaded by mnoo. Wow. I finally have a couple of minutes to myself. It is 3:48 on Sunday night, but hey, I hear it’s Bank Holiday Monday tomorrow or something. π So what better time to try to catch up a bit. Gosh, life seems to have been in a bit of an overdrive since coming back… Read More
During the almost four years that I’ve been traveling back and forth this was, hands down, the easiest journey I’ve ever had! I mean, wow. No hassle at either end, plane was half empty, landed half an hour early, Heathrow was very quiet, Heathrow Express nearly empty and instead of the normal half an hour taxi queue at Paddington there… Read More
Apparently I can take normal hand luggage on a flight when my final destination is London, just not allowed on flights departing from the UK. Whee. I can take my bomb after all.
Great… All UK airports are in chaos and a critical security alert has been issued after a plot to blow up planes in mid-flight from the UK to the US was foiled.

And the day before we were still doing sing star at my ‘sort of’ birthday do. π That was a bit close! Onnea koko perheelle, miesvΓ€ki senkun kasvaa. π
After an arthritis-inducing amount of time spent scanning and sorting out images, a selection of the holiday pictures is now online here. I even tried to throw in some captions. All the square images are taken with a Holga and scanned from print, in case someone wonders. Ack, I can’t stand the thought of hols being over tomorrow. Sucks so… Read More
Well ok, I can’t go to bed without revealing this much. On Thursday 20 July (at 22:55), Stu proposed to me on San Marco’s Square in Venice. And I said ‘OK’. π It was all very romantic and the scene around us looked like from a movie (even if we didn’t, in the +38C heat). It did take me completely… Read More
