The Twins – Tessa de Loo

Books

Two women, both born in 1916, meet each other at the thermal institute of the famous health resort Spa. One, Anna, is German. The other, Lotte, is Dutch, but not by origin: her impeccable German gives her away. She turns out to be the twin sister of Anna, with whom she spent the first years of her life in Cologne….[read more]

My latest book, borrowed from my mum before I was about to leave from Mosjøen til Bodø by train. Unlike me I’ve read a fiction novel, but since the story is based around WW2 Elin was not surprised at all 🙂

My pulse when driving a 250cc

Leisure

My cousin Martin have just bought a 250cc bike which I was so lucky to test last weekend. Since we just had been out running I turned on my Polar-watch and recorded my pulse. Even if I was very, very careful and not driving like crazy (did not even wear a helmet) my pulse popped up to over 130, same as when running at moderate pace. The upper line being the pulse, the other one being the altitude.

Peace yet again restored with Sweden

Anything but the other

Refering to the dog poop incident here the other day, where my conclusion was that I felt good, but it did not solve the problem. I was wrong, snow on Saturday (and a major hang over) so I was not able to verify it then, but yesterday I did…and…it was gone, and no one of my neighbours have removed, that I know…so my conclusion is: The Swede came back later that day and did as he promised. So…Swedes are ok people after all!

Anything but the other

Just when Elin went out this morning to drive to work I realised that I had forgotten something in the car. On my way out I saw a guy letting his dog poop on our lawn. When returning from the car I saw the guy jogging away, and 1 minute later when passing the lawn I saw a big poop lying there. I snapped, turned around immediately and ran after the guy. Did catch him up quite fast and yelled at him big time. Did it solve the problem? No! Did I feel good about myself? YES!!!!!
