Last night was great fun (glad I am still not too old) as we were invited by the British Ambassador to their residence. The new ambassador from the US was there who was wonderful and his wife was a riot, Emma Sjöberg, Mickael Bindefeld and Linda, an opera singer with whom I laughted all night.
Drinks in the drawing room, very informal with 20 people but it was the smell of the fire and the dimmed lighting and the feeling of England that was so interesting.
I have lived in sweden longer than any other country and on the whole do not miss england but last night I did.
Then off to The Grand for dinner and a martini.
Today has also been odd as we were in östhammar opening a big hund affär, ribbon cutting, meet and greet, petting other people jack russels etc.
Lots and lots of people and chaos with all the dogs, people, children, shopping and P & P wanting to talk to everyone. Pooter got the event off to a good start by peeing on a chair.
It was nice to help out just for the pleasure of helping out, I hope the place works really well.
Tomorrow off to Alvsjö Mässan for a föreläsning atBostadsrätts Mässan. Should be fun but always rather nervous before hand. hate to dissapoint.
Dinner tonight is fish pie and chablis….I am not getting any younger.

Hej boy´s, vill säga att ni är stört sköna o titta på. Man får sig många garv när man ser era program på televisionen. Ville se med er om ni har någon speciell utbildning i botten eller är det bara “good taste” som gäller.

Hej Simon!
I’ve been playing catch-up with your show Simon och Tomas, and love it, love it, love it! My dear Swede inroduced me to TV3, and it streams quite well here in the US. Okay, silly question, but what is your sign Simon? You mentioned in one episode Tomas is an Aries, and wow, I was right on that one, my Swede is also an Aries. Well, I know you’re busy and hope you don’t mind indulging me on that little curiosity.
I have the last 2 seasons to watch! Better late than never I suppose. Cheers! Linda
Trevligt program men tyvärr känner jag att miljötänket inte är det allra bästa hos tv3. Varför inte passa på och vara goda förebilder och t.ex. sätta ut de hela köken på Blocket istället för att slita dem i flisor. Det finns många som skulle bli glada för att köpa billigt eller varför inte skänka bort?! Det kan inte kosta er varken tid eller pengar men det kan få folk att tänka ett steg till gällande våra begränsade resurser här på jorden.
Yeah, well I suppose you would miss England, it’s your mother land, but frankly darling..
Hahaha
Have a chat with me on facebook josefina kopecky
I am maltese at heart, I LOVE Malta.
LOVED your show last night & my facebook friends asked if i watched ULLARED - told them ( NO!) was watching you guys!
What’s your take on that store , anyway?
I loved the show, it was sooo funny in that lift.
I thought you were really brave, I would panick!
Take care & the UK is only 1 1/2 hours away.
A nice excuse to get some of Mark’s & Spencer’s X-mas pudding, if you’re in to that

Ett förslag.
Tittar på ert program vilket jag gillar. Kollar även på Äntligen hemma och det är också bra (bra hjälpreda). Er hjälpreda är bra men jag tror att ni skulle kunna få till ett ännu bättre/roligare program med ett ev. byte av hjälpreda till nästa säsong. Ett alternativ skulle kunna vara att hjälpredan kunnde få ha typ en praktikant brevid sig som sin hjälpreda vilket kanske kunde skapa lite roliga infallsvinklar. Tack för ett bra program och nu har jag hittat till er sida också.
I must say, Your english is atrocious… Such a thick swedish accent it’s wierd… Are You really british? Or do You just like pretending or something? I find it wierd that You always talk english yet somnehow has managed to get a swedish accent… That usually only happens if Yopu don’t speak Your mothertongue for a long LONG time, and it then gets coloured by the language you Have spoken *not been surrounded by but SPOKEN* giving an accent, but never heard of it happening to people who keep talking their mothertongue…
Ahwell, sorry if it seems rude or whatnot, I just find it very curious… Especially in someone obviously into higher society..
