Att bo i England

Blev inspirerad av fina Erika som gjorde en lista på fördelar vs nackdelar med att bo i Rom, och eftersom att jag idag inte har något bättre för mig idag än att baka en simpel kladdkaka tänkte jag att jag ju också kan göra en liten lista. Så, här kommer dem:

Nackdelar:
  • Här är vänstertrafik, varför liksom?
  • Vägarna är i genomsnitt två meter breda.
  • Regn, regn, regn.
  • Det finns fler rävar än människor. Nästan.
  • Ljudvolymen på bio och i affären är löjligt hög.
  • Förutom Nigella och Jamie Oliver är matkulturen Noll.
Fördelar:
  • Den engelska dialekten.
  • Mina fina flickor Natasha och Francesca.
  • Jag bor 40 minuter från centrala London.
  • PRIMARK
  • Människor är otroligt artiga och trevliga mot en.
  • Nästan varje hus ser ut som Rosehill Cottage i The Holiday.
  • Ölen är god, och billig!
  • Starbucks

Allt för idag... Cheerio!

  1. Dear Emma,

    I´m Rainer, German, and spend the last weekend in Stockholm. The first time in Sweden. I saw so much wonderful things...I got mad on the Lucia concerts I saw in youtube afterwards.
    Especially that from Växjö Domkyrkan 2009. You sang so amzing this wonderful Koppangen, and all the others were tremendous, too.
    Absolutely breathtaking!

    But the quality at youtube is rather poor. Do you know if there exists a DVD or so of this concert? It is professionally filmed and edited and so I guess it must exist something professional...?
    In fact, I didn´t find anything in the web.

    If you knew anything about it, would you please let me know?

    Kind regards,
    and a wonderful Christmas time

    Rainer

  2. Wow, thank you Rainer for the kind words!

    There is a DVD made, I would recommend you to contact the conducter of this concert, David Newkumet, and ask him is there are any copies left, and if he might sell any. Here's his email: david.newkumet@katedral.vaxjo.se

    Merry Christmas to you too, and good luck!

  3. Emma,

    Thank you so much!!!

    (Even a colleague, a far friend, living in Stockholm didn´t find anything!)
    I´ll let you know if I can celebrate Christmas with you at the screen...:-)

    Kind regards
    Rainer

  4. Dear Emma,

    are you up for a short update?

    David pointed to svt.
    Svt (cultural department) sent no response.
    Request to the DVD department: no response.
    Request to "filmpoint communication" who made the film: general mail address: no response. Today, I wrote to the producer, and called him finally.

    He said, that they are searching and probably must dub their own recording to a DVD.
    I hope I can afford that!

    Nevertheless: I saw you and the other Växjö singers again and again at youtube and every time I´m near to tears.

    So, have a good time,
    Rainer

  5. Dear Emma,

    I´m very sad...:-(

    Lennart Ström from filmpoint communication (who made the recording) wrote that they are not allowed to make a DVD according to the contract they made with SVT.

    If you com across such a DVD at any time, please let me know, maybe we can arrange a private deal?

    Have a good time and a wonderful Christmas,
    all the best,

    Rainer

  6. Dear Emma,

    Everything is fine now.

    My son is a digital magician. I showed him the six parts at youtube, and he downloaded them, combimed them to one file and burned it on a DVD.

    Yesterday was Lucia´s day. Surprising good qualtity of picture and sound. And wonderful music with you and the others.

    Thank you!

    Kind regard and:

    God jul og godt nytär!

    Rainer
