so. A quick break in the holiday before we skip to the summer house for the remainder of the week. Its swedish week this week, me and K are conversing only in swedish with the exception of English Hour, where we can fit in all the angst, wit and repartee that my Swedish fails to accomodate.

So, Rhodos, the food, the 6 hour battle with the nocturnal blood suckers, the fantastic swimming and the cool scenary. More to follow.

The bastards in Malmö stad (city council) have cut the trees down outside our apartment - gits. I assume it was them, rather than a sudden and wholly unprecedented plague of beavers.

Recommended books: Collected short stories of Neil Gaimen, Smoke and Mirrors, as well as the comic book, by the same author, The Sandman. Jolly good. Currently ploughing through the latest book by Steven Erikson, Midnight Tides, once more with the rampant hacking and slaying but with a previously only hinted at rich vein of black humour.



Keep on eye on this, the final frontier awaits...
