I can always count on you :) It’s really cold here. I put the central heating on today. A huge step when it comes to accepting winter is on its way.

I don't like Eurovision though and I rarely brag about free healthcare (although I think it..). I'm not sure whether to be pleased or not about that!

I understand that idyllic Sverige would not provide you with as much crazy inspiration for the blog, so I really appreciate you sleeping on it and thinking about a new angle the blog could take. I think the problem is that as a Swede you can't necessarily see the amusing aspects of Swedish life—even the fact that it is a Utopian society can be amusing with the right voice behind it—and I think you have that voice. So I hope you will find some inspiration and that the blog lives on in whatever form the new incarnation takes. Cheers/Skol Meghan P.S. This Canadian would have flipped out if mice invaded my flat, so that either makes me a snob also (or perhaps Swedish at heart) or the English freaks of nature!? Hi Lisa,

It is hard to imagine anybody being that conceited about themself and their country without it being tongue in cheek. I am wondering if this blog is a complete wind-up?

You say that everything is perfect here, but maybe you could pick on subjects and compare your experiences in the different cultures, showing what is different/wrong in the UK? Just a thought. Enjoy the summer and the lakes and all that space! Peter Hi Lisa,
