    So trivial, yet it really ticks you off.

    Finally I get it! I really didn't understand what cereal coffee is until now. Wondered if it is something special variant or granulation of instant coffwe or what... You see, I've never seen anything like that here. Learn something every day! Reminds me of the stories my parents and grandparents...

    What Was The Last Movie You Watched?

    When spring arrives I somehow get the urge to watch Africa-themed adventure movies. This time I've been watching different King Solomon's Mines -movies and today's was 50's version with Steward Granger. It was entertaining, good looking and definitely not a waste of time! Though my favourite is...

    So trivial, yet it really ticks you off.

    I may not know the terms. How does instant grain coffee differ from your ordinary instant coffee, Nescafe Gold etc.? Getting back on track, thing that really ticks me off is bad coffee! We Finns drink the most coffee per capita in the world and I have every intention to keep it so! I am also...

    How does that tick you off? Besides that instant coffee is crap! :)

    So trivial, yet it really ticks you off.

    A friend of mine did a tour as a peacekeeper in the Balkans, and he had the most thorough English lesson ever. He met quite attractive female canadian peacekeeper on the side of the road with a jeep bonnet up. Of course my friend wanted to help and asked what the problem was. And the answer...

    So trivial, yet it really ticks you off.

    This seems to be quite universal, or at least western fenomenon. Youngsters here are using our equivalent of f*** as a punctuation mark, propably not even thinking what it actually means. It's a pity when Finnish language used to have a vast array of very colourful swears, nowadays that...

    I'm in! Luckily the castle is by the same sea that I am. So I may just grab my canoe and paddle across the Baltic!

    Hat Store Images

    Our local friendly hat shop, Hattu & Hansikas (=Hat & Glove). Established 1956, used to have their own manufacturing but cheap imports and general decline in hat use killed that off. Owner is in his 70s, thankfully his daughter is going to keep the shop going.

    Vintage Things That Have Disappeared In Your Lifetime?

    My father started as a plumber. Then my mother wanted to climb up the social ladder and pushed him into technical college (propably getting these terms wrong...), so he became a technician in heating, plumbing and aircon. As a kid I was amazed watching him design these systems for huge buildings...
