This Christmas I have enjoyed locally produced beverages (they are even organic). Eidskog Øl’n with a hint of black crowberry and Eidskog Akevitt. I have enjoyed black croweberry lemonade last year when I visited my friend Kent in Tromsø, but never before as part of a beverage with alcohol.

About Norwegian war sailors sailing for the Norwegian Merchant Fleet during WW2. Had to read it as a follow up of my previous book Skogsmatrosen and as a teaser before starting on part two of Skogsmatrosen, the second book Skytteren.

As a follow up of my post from 29’th of June this very same year “And what a summer“. Today the road is not flooded, but pretty close and if the weather forecast for the rest of the day is true it might well flood.
Fiction, but still very close to reality – a must read for anyone with just a slight portion of interest in the history of WW2.
A Hero of the Sea is a high point in Jon Michelet´s impressive writing career and is nothing less than the great Norwegian sea novel. Written with authority and warmth, this is a gripping, epic tale of the war at sea.

Friday afternoon my neighbor Thomas got two tickets to Depeche Mode in Telenor Arena the same evening and invited me to join him…an offer I could not refuse since I never have seen them live.
