It is Friday again and it is not just a Friday it is April Fools day today.

 from Retro Slashers.

So you all must beware of getting fooled =).

I was hoping for some sunshine today but I was wrong =(, and I just realized I am about to leave the office for the weekend in 2minutes. Why you may ask? But I will not answer as it is not of your business =). 

 from London Cake.

Tonight I will go on a birthday party, don’t know where yet out it will be at a pub or a restaurant, as always here in London… in Sweden we celebrate birthdays at home. No offence to my friends here in London but I think it is much nicer to celebrate birthdays at home.

No plans at all for the rest of the weekend as we have a friend visitiing from Sweden (or Norway). She is Swedish but living in Norway. So it will be up to her how we will spend the weekend.

 from Greenwich MT.

And you all know Norway. Right? It is just next to Sweden. It is funny that the two best countries in the world is next to each other.

 from Red Bubble.

I know she want to go to the pub for a few pints. So we will probalby end up somewhere on Southbank tomorrow.

Or if the weather is nice tomorrow we might have a small BBQ in our lovely garden. Invite a few friends over for a couple of ribs and beers.

Enjoy the weekend with family, friends and some Sparkling in the sunshine.

Fick just ett reklamemail gällande billiga resor från Etihad Airways.

Vi passade på att bli medlemmar i deras frekvent flyersklubb när vi bokade vår resa till Thailand i januari. Så nu kommer det ungefär ett email i veckan om alla deras medlemserbjudanden.

Förra veckan var erbjudandet 25% rabatt på alla deras flygningar om man bokade innan sista mars och i dag kom det reklam för flygbiljetter till Bangkok för endast £468.

468 x 0,75 = £351

Inte illa, det skulle alltså bli £702 för mig och Älsklingen. Är grymt sugen att boka en liten tur igen. Drömmaren i mig säger självklart att jag ska boka MEN jag måste nog faktiskt vara realist och inse att det just nu finns bättre saker att lägga pengarna på (läs plånboken är tom).

Dessutom har vi ju faktiskt redan har planerat för våren. Paris i maj, en massa besök från Sverige i maj och sedan är det ju självklart Sverige och Dalarna som gäller under midsommar. 

Take Care

Hjälp! Klockan har redan hunnit bli halv två och bara slitter och slappar.

Inte kan man väl bara göra ingenting när man är ledig. Bor man i London finns det ju massor med saker att göra SÅ det är väl inte tillåtet att bara sitta hemma och inte göra någonting. ELLER?

Älsklingen här åkt Farringdon för att använda M’s studio att jobba i… och jag gör ingenting. Har ett par saker jag måste ta tag i men har ingen som helst lust.

Har i alla fall svarat på ett email som jag fick för nästan en månad sedan =) (så Rupert du har fått ett email) och jag har läst ut en Vagabondtidning.

Nej dags att ta sig i kragen och åka till affären och inhandla lite godsaker till kvällens middag. Köra ett par tvättmaskiner och kolla på en film eller två innan Älsklingen kommer hem. Så det är nog typ det enda som jag kommer att göra i dag… fast jag måste nog trots allt ta tag i det dära som jag måste göra.

It is finally Friday again and I still trying to focus on work after my 45 minutes powerwalk to Borough Market and back the lunch break. 

Sitting right now staring at the lovely weather outside the window. Thinking; What am I doing here?

Why can’t I be rich so I didn’t have to work at all.

Maybe some of you think it will be boring not working. it will probably be BUT if you can occupy yourself with

I know waht I would do… I would just travel around the world doing what I like the most;

Exploring beautiful new places. Visit every country in the world.

 from Blogspot.

Did you knew there are 194 countries in the world. So with my 24 I’ve visited so far I have some travelling to do. How many countries have you visited?

But after the Euro Millions draw tonight, money won’t be any problem anymore… at least in my dreams =).

So what are we up to this weekend?

Not sure to be honest, I think I will just be. Don’t plan anything at all, just take the day as it. If I want to have Sparkling and lobster for  breakfast I just open a bottle and take a lobster out from the fridge and sit on the street outside our flat eating, drinking and singing naughty songs. If I want to do it naked I just do it…

 from Jesper.

Don’t think about the concequences, if it is the correct way to behave or not. BUT as my parents taught me how to behave I will not do any of the things above, except maybe the Sparkling.

As I said no plans so far and I think it will be like this the whole weekend, so I must apologize for not giving you any great ideas what to do tomorrow and on Sunday.

If you know someone who doesn’t receive my Friday Letter just tell them to email me. They must include a good reason why they should be on the List.

 from Borja.

I will evaluate them one by one to see if they are worthy enough to be on my list

The best time of the week is almost here…

By the time my Friday letter comes to your inbox you all know that the weekend it about to start. Wee all live for the weekend don’t we??

At least I LOVE my weekend, even if I don’t do anything exciting. You all know how nice it is to wake up on a Saturday morning with hearing the horrible sound of the alarm. Knowing you don’t have to leave the bed if you don’t want to.

 from Hilding.

It is such a lovely feeling. 

Maybe eating the breakfast in bed…

 from Photaki.

For you information, I NEVER eat breakfast in bed. Why you may ask… the bed is not made for eating and there are a big risk getting breadcrumbs and other strange things in it.

Tonight nothing exciting at all will happen… Stay in, eat take out and watch a movie or two. I think it will be Thai food and the films will be the Black Swan and/or Love and other Drugs. Who doesn’t want to see Anne H’s bare skin or Natalie P in tights=).

                             

Tomorrow morning, btw. last Saturday we had a lovely walk along Regent Canal all the way from Broadway Market to Camden.

Anyway. No plans for tomorrow yet but I believe, if the weateher gods are on our side, we’ll do an an excursion and explore a new part of London. Imbibe the surroundings, take loads of pictures and stop at a cosy pub for lunch. Not sure for the evening yet but I think we will be invited to friends for dinner. Who can say no to a FREE DINNER =).

 

Sunday 

I will most likely start the morning with a run before breakfast. As I have problems with my knees at the moment

 

from Promaker.

I’m not sure about the distance. It will be between 4-10k. Don’t ask me about the miles as kilometers ARE the correct way of measuring distance. 

 

Afte my running I hope my georgeous wife will be ready with a delicous breakfast in the garden (I hope it will be warm and sunnny enough).

 

That’s all for this week… don’t forget the Sparkling 

 

BTW. As we are winning the 90 million Euro tonight my plans will probably change.

 from Travel News.

I have already filled up the fridge with SPARKLING so that’s what I will do for the whole weekend.

Hope to see you all in the office on Monday… the lottry win is not an excuse to NOT show up. We must all celebrate…

… har nu gått och det har inte hänt speciellt mycket.

Mina spännande vardagar ser i princip likadana ut, varje dag…

Väckning 0640 till Septembers låt Cry for you. Snabb påklädning innan jag ger lilla Elsa sin frukost. Gör mig sedan klar för att ca. klockan 0700 ta buss W7 till Finsbury Park och tunnelbanan.

 från Wikipedia.

Victoria Line fraktar mig sedan söderut till Waterloo Station.

 frånthe Londonist.

Tar sedan en rask femminuterspromenad till Palestra. Ja byggnaden som jag jobbar i heter så.

 från London-BlackCAB.

Jobbar och sliter sedan hela förmiddagen fram till 1300 då jag oftast avnjuter medhavd lunch.

Jobbar ett par timmar till innan jag klockan 1600 slutar. Tar då en liten annan resväg mot på morgonen. Tar Jubilee Line, som har station just utanför kontoret, till Green Park där jag byter till Victoria Line.

Brukar sedan vara hemma kring klockan 1645.

 från Ting-Fixar.

Väl hemma brukar jag kolla in någon TV-serie innan jag sätter i gång att laga middag. Försöker ha maten klar när Älskligen kommer hem fårn jobbet.

Umgås med henne innan det är dags att gå och lägga sig… har som mål att ligga i sängen under täcket innan klockan har slagit TOLV.

Som sagt dagarna ser gasnka lika ut, måndag till fredag i alla fall =).

Friday 11th of March and it is such a lovely day today.

It seems like the spring is definitely here. In Sweden, my country, we (they) are still having loads of snow.

I just came back after a nice 45minutes walk in the nighbourhood (read Borough Market). I went there to by a few bottles of wine. I need it for the weekend =).

It is not many minutes until it’s four… I need the weekend. My body screams WEEKEND!!!

Today I am actually thinking of joining some of you to the pub. Yes you red it right. It’s been such a long time since I joined you… I won’t be staying long though as I have already plans for later.

So what’s so important? Have not decided yet. I am chosing between dinner with the Mrs and some friends or go salsa dancing at a place called Floridita with some other friends. 

If we go for the dancing I will most likely, as I am a shy Swedish guy, have loads of Sparkling and probably a couple of vodka before I put on my dancing shoes and go on the dance floor.

There will be an early start tomorrow, not sure if we’ll go to Borough Market or Broadway Market. We planned to do it last weekend but as I was stucked infront of the computer watching crosscountry skiing we postponed our market saturday till this week. If we go for Hackney and a walk along the chanal to Angel we’ll definitely make a stop at a cosy cafe/bar half way to Angel.

That’s the plans for Saturday as the evening is fully bocked =). We will stay home watching who will represent Sweden in the Eurovision Song Contest in May and at 2100 we will watch the Killing on BBC4.

The first 14 (total of 20) episodes are still accessible on BBC iPlayer.

On Sunday we will go back to east London. We need flowers to decorate the flat and Columbia Flower Market is a good place if you want to shop flowers.

I think the best place must be New Covent Garden between Vauxhall and Battersea (MAP). But you must be early as it opens at 0400 and closes at 1000.

I will spend the rest of my Sunday will be spent home cleaning the flat… I know it sounds boring and it is boring but it must be done.

That’s all for this week, see you Monday.
