Yesterday I had to go to &#8220;<a href=\"http:\/\/www.denrustneeike.no\/\">Den Rustne Eike<\/a>&#8221; (The Rusty Spoke) to get a new tyre for Elins <a href=\"http:\/\/4.bp.blogspot.com\/_kkmfD39j1bc\/TBEFFg1yhwI\/AAAAAAAAA5c\/l-UTBjm8kFQ\/s400\/kombi.jpg\">kombisykkel<\/a>.

When entering the &#8220;inner room&#8221;, it was like being part in a Harry Potter-movie or such. See the picture found in the article mentioned above, you can imagine.<\/p>\n<div class=\"image_block\"><a href=\"http:\/\/hellem.org\/blog\/media\/blogs\/new\/2011\/04\/rustne1.jpg?mtime=1301645752\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" alt=\"\" src=\"http:\/\/hellem.org\/blog\/media\/blogs\/new\/2011\/04\/rustne1.jpg?mtime=1301645752\" width=\"480\" height=\"360\" \/><\/a><\/div>\n<div class=\"image_block\"><a href=\"http:\/\/hellem.org\/blog\/media\/blogs\/new\/2011\/04\/rustne2.jpg?mtime=1301645753\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" alt=\"\" src=\"http:\/\/hellem.org\/blog\/media\/blogs\/new\/2011\/04\/rustne2.jpg?mtime=1301645753\" width=\"360\" height=\"480\" \/><\/a><\/div>\n<div class=\"image_block\"><a href=\"http:\/\/hellem.org\/blog\/media\/blogs\/new\/2011\/04\/rustne3.jpg?mtime=1301645754\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" alt=\"\" src=\"http:\/\/hellem.org\/blog\/media\/blogs\/new\/2011\/04\/rustne3.jpg?mtime=1301645754\" width=\"480\" height=\"360\" \/><\/a><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Not a very good picture, anyhow: Last Sunday I had to go out to Fornebu to empty my locker, so I jumped on my bike and headed for Fornebu.
