Yeah, no problems here. We sent the kids home at 1 PM to make sure they could get home (we have a lot of kids who have to travel quite far by public transport to get to school), but the storm didn't hit till 5PM. At some point I had 10 cm of snow on my windows and the wind was howling, but that was it. Some lightning. No damage here, or in the neighbourhood that I'm aware of.
How was your Sinterklaas?

Heh, fortunately we don't. Snow is great when you don't have to go out to work the next day(s).
Holidays start in 2 weeks!

*waves to Coffeehouse*
There's some snow in Oslo now - not a lot, and there is expected to be thaw soon. We weren't too badly hit by the storm, we were north and east of the worst of it. But other parts of Norway were hit really hard. On an airport a parked plane was taken by the wind and crashed into someting.

HI, LINK! Wow, lots of old people are popping back in. Is it the Hobbit 2, then?
P.S. I've been watching WAY too much Doctor Who, so though I'm American, my thoughts are in some sort of British accent and I feel like it's affecting my speech...

Oh right, do I get my cane after 50 more posts?

Dr Who is good. Or rather it was. Not a big fan of the stories written in the last series. Looking forward to the next series though.

I think the cane comes after 10,000 posts, or 10 years (maybe whichever comes first?). Either way, I don't have one yet.

Who else is looking forward to the second Hobbit movie? Looks exciting. I have high expectations for Smaug!
*Pours everyone a cup of traditional Scandinavian hot coco* Enjoy

I hated the first one, so I'm not looking forward to the second one.

Really? I liked the first one - and I AM looking forward to the second. I just re-watched #1 a few days ago. One of my sons had not seen it - so I watched it with him. Now I can bring all three to see the second.

I hated all the added parts. Admitted, I would probably have liked it had I never read the Hobbit and expected to also see the Hobbit.

Today is the Winter Solstice. Near as I can figure, that equates to Yule in the Shire. Probably "Yule 1".
Happy Yule!
