haha, eccentric relatives! i would die to have you playing this role :-)

i do actually find myself rather looking forward to the greeting and crying of the newly arrived one. mainly because it's not mine and i won't have to deal with it.

i haven't decided on what form my eccentricity may take but, for starters, as i've already proved with my other under five year old swedish relatives, lack of language is of itself highly amusing to them as well as neing a good opportunity to embellish my child like swedish vocabulary

Congratulations! Suggest sandwiches with the top on to confuse Swedish relatives.

stoneandsea I'm off to find.

Congratulations, uncle swiss. Do you go to Stockholm often? I used to find myself going there for one reason or another - not tourism! There used to be a Tinguely sculpture park there. Is it still there?

we're usually across in stockholm once or twice a year and yes, the tinguely is still there outside the moderna museet
