Three days off!!

Three days off from work. Yipee!
Det är valborgshelg i Sverige, inget man firar här men det är ledigt på Måndag av en eller annan anledning. May bank holiday kallas den.
Ska försöka hitta en grill idag så att vi kan grilla lite gott i helgen.
Vädret verkar bli ganska bra så vi håller tummarna att vi ska lyckas få ihop en grill-middag.
Ha det gott.

Laptop breakdown

Hi
My laptop has been taken to repair, so updates of my blog might be rare.
I'll try to write in work if possible. The repair can take up to ten days. =(

Trafiken i Dublin

Ni skulle inte tro det om ni såg det. De visar utbildnings-/informations-reklam pa Irländsk TV för att bilförare ska lära sig hur man kör i rondeller och hur man gör en omkörning.
På fullaste allvar försöker man alltså lära bilförare något de borde ha lärt sig innan de fick körkort, inte efter.

Det blir mer och mer förståeligt varför man (jag) är allmänt irriterad när jag kör bil. De flesta har tydligen inte fått lära sig hur man beter sig i trafiken i trafikskola utan de lär eftersom (kanske).

Var glada att de flesta av er inte kommer att behöva köra bil här.

Big brother


Sean is my first grandson and an absolutely gorgeous boy.
Don't you agree?

Gardening

There has been a lot of gardening going on this weekend. We finally got around to trim the hedges and they look very nice now.
It is important that we get the front- and back garden in order before my mother and Anders comes over from Sweden.
Gary's dad has been helping out as well and it is presentable now.
Sean has had a great time helping out wearing his "Bob" outfit, ie carpenters pants with special pockets and hoops for all his tools.
Nathaniel has had nice naps out in the back garden as well.
All in all it has been a very good weekend.
Talk to you soon.

Nathaniel sover

Nathaniel har haft ont i magen de forsta natterna hemma.
Det har varit mycket grat och valdigt svart att trosta.
I natt fick han antligen sova langre och magen verkar battre.
Haller tummarna att det haller i sig.

Nathaniel is home


Sunday afternoon Nathatniel and Alexandra got home to the house.
It is strange to have a new baby in the house. Especially for Sean. He looks at his little brother with some doubt that he is a real person.
This small thing still has a very, very loud cry.
It is unbelievable that so much noise can come out of that adorable little mouth.
Well they are safely home now so now I can spend time with both of my grandsons.

Nathaniel with daddy


My new grandson

This afternoon my second grandson was born.
His name is Nathaniel.
Alexandra and Gary are in the hospital and they sent me a couple of pictures of the angel. It's not possible to download the pictures on my mobile to this blog, but when I get my hands on the memory card from the digital camera Gary will bring home I will post pictures of Nathaniel.
I can tell you he looks like Sean even though his hair is darker and more of it.
The last cople of days has been tense, but now that he has arrived I should become more active on the blog. Take care.

Sitter pa jobbet fast jag borde ligga hemma i sängen. Har en dunder-forkylning, men jag är aldeles for pliktskyldig for att stanna hemma.
Har firat pask med delar av Garys familj. Jag lovar att lägga upp bilder idag eller imorgon.
Ha det bra folks.
