2) I am annoyingly restless
3) I'm crap in the morning
4) I really am a wingy old cow
5) I quote from films that amuse me at inappropriate times
6) I have the attention span of a fly on ecstasy
7) I look like this when I sleep

Hi Jan Kristian,
Oline was my room mate at prayer school in Sjærgårdsheimen - and insedently the best roomie ever - not even joking now. Well I've been to Kenya as well. And Ethiopia and Tanzania and I'm only 30.
Do you know, it just struck me how marvelous that makes me sound. I truly am amazing.

Eileen,
WOWWWWWOOOW!!!
Ble UTROLIG glad for å høre fra deg min lille rafiki. (Swahili for venn). Vi skal til Kristian og May senere i kveld så jeg skal hilse de fra deg. Er sååå stolt av deg - diakonpraksis - jammen!!
Blessings on your head min frimodig og vakker vennine.
P.S. Never change.
Jeg har vært i Kautokeino. Og jeg er snart 24.
Jeg er 21 år.
Since we're confessing things......I've never been a fan of cricket, and I'm 30!
There I said it!!
OOOO you are cute when you sleep! Hmm I must learn how to operate our blog, its been the same since it was made. How are you? We are hoping to come over in April, after easter sometime, are you going to be home then?
We are happy in the slush that is winter in Bergen!
Love Anne & Julian
YAAAAY! Julian and Anne!! Tiffany's coming to visit because she's rich - lucky cow.
Yes, please fix your blogg. It's so much easier to keep in touch that way. Soooo, slushy Bergen you say. Tell me, have you and Julian found any jobs recently?
Come back,
love,
Katrine and Jan Ole
Sorry -
Yes we're home after Easter -
YAAAAAAAY!!
Re: Saxofonmannen™
På norsk ville man skrevet "erstatningsdukke" i ett ord... :-P
Men jeg synes du er flink, jeg... :-)
sukk,
Thanks anyway. "Come on Mr Jazz man play my favourite song."
by MR Ray Forbes my favourite amature jazz artist. Also løike Rosemary Clooney.
Yep, anyway.
Nasty the j.. word, we try not to use it. Ok then Julian got a job at Helios, I am still looking and being picky. Sold a bunch of paintings to Haukeland hospital so that was cool. It doesnt have to be very expensive to visit, minstepris on the train is not so bad, but know what you mean, everything is expensive when there is no money, money is overrated! Sleeping to 10 o clock is not...loooovely!!!!!!
Love Anne
Katrine! Takk for kommentar, saa den etter jeg akkurat sendte deg en mail..=) Im on, sender deg meld i kveld!! annis
I'm glad that I daily get to experience all these wonderful things about you :)
PS: could you please stop leaving the toilet seat down?
SHWEEDY!!! :)
So chuffed to see you on my blogg.
Got the loo seat comment - noted.
But could you stop wearing my wedding dress when I'm out of the house - it's giving me the creeps - cheers.
Smask
I see your point, but it's such a nice dress and it would be a waste if no one used it.
Suddenly I get the feeling I'm in this room with a lot of bunk beds, a few Norwegian YWAM girls, about 10 million Egyptian mosquitos and then I hear it; like a fresh wind from the Swiss Alps, with an English/Norwegian accent: "The hills are alive... with the sound ....." Sweet memories .. sukk :)
Yaaay Beate,
Yes Egypt was acetastic wasn't it.I got diahorrea. I also fainted and then woke up to this mad Egyptian man who seemed to be trying to push my eyelids into my brain. This would have been an effective way of waking me up - had I already not been wide awake. He apologised a thousand times. -
Fun memories.
You and I had some good chats as I remember.
