Paperboys, Karpe Diem, Katzenjammer, DUMDUM BOYS, Alphaville
Then we were back on Valhall, still aching from yesterday. Saturday seemed to be even longer, it started at 3pm, but we wanted experience Paperboys. They got a complete new audience when Vinnie participated in Korslaget (The battle of choirs). Paperboys was the opening act on saturday, but that did not stop people from showing up, and all the thousands of people was there to hear them play among others, Lonesome Traveller. When this song came and all of the audience sang along on the refrain, even Vinnie looked moved. And I have to admint, that when an artist shows this kind of happiness by his audience, well, then they get extra credit with me.
Så skal det sies at når Paperboys var ferdige, forlot mange tusener arenaen, noe som tydelig viser deres popularitet. Og jeg må innrømme at Rap ikke er min musikkstil, men av en eller annen grunn synes jeg dette var veldig bra.
And it should be said that when Paperboys was done, thousands of people left the arena, something that states their populatity. And I have to admit, that Rap is not my style, but for some reason, this was very good.

I can't believe I am saying this, but I do recommend a Paperboys-concert.

Døgnvill day 1, Alexander Rybak, Timbuktu, Hallelujah, TNT
Alexander Rybak, The Eurovision Song contest 09, charmed all young girls, but we did not see the entire concert. This is the review from NRK. The dance-group Frikar is worth looking at. Acrobatic stunts and allway with a smile.
Anmeldelse/Review
One of Alexanders fans. With autographs both on her jacket and her arm. She was mostly looking forward to Karpe Diem on saturday.
Så kom energibunten Timbuktu på Scenen, og jeg må innrømme at dette var bedre enn forventet. Det jeg har hørt før har vært bra, men han var kjempebra Live. Kommer nok til å se han live senere også.
LIND, NILSEN, FUENTES, HOLM
Og det må jeg si. At gutta hadde det morsomt på scenen, er det ingen tvil om. Og at de elsker å stå foran et publikum er det heller ingen som vil tvile på. De utfyller hverandre perfekt, fra yngstemann og spilloppmaker Alejandro til den mer rutinerte og tilbaketrukne Espen. Kurt med en bergensers "bekjedenhet" og Askil med sin iver over å få dele musikken. Det var en mye bedre konsert enn jeg forventet.
And I have to say. The boys really enjoyed themself on stage. There is no doubt about it. And that they love to stand in front of an audience there is no question about it. They fulfill eachother perfectly, from the unexperienced Alejandro to the more experienced and silent Espen. Kurt with a "bergensers" modestness and Askil with his eager to share the music with us. It was a much better experience than I expected.
Then TNT came on Sn@akkscenen and a lot of people moved over. They played all the good old classics and managed to get a good "sing-a-long" on the entire stadium.

Kuule sko / Cool Shoes
I found these shoes online today, I think they are soooo nice. But I must have a luxury-radar, beceuse everything I think is nice, is expensice. That goes for these as well. They cost NOK 2149 (about 250EURO), which isolated is not that much, but I do buy more than one pair of shoes every year.
Jeg vil vinne i lotto, bygge meg en skikkelig sko - garderobe og kunne kjøpe alle sko jeg har lyst på, så kan jeg kanskje ha sko-salg en gang i året, hvor jeg kvitter meg med de jeg har gått lei av :-)
I want to win the lottery, build myself a great shoe-wardrobe and buy all the shoes I crave for, and then I can have a shoe-sale once a year to get rid of those I am tired of :-)
Jacuzzi
morning. That felt great :-)
Min kropp verker over det hele etter å ha sittet nesten urørlig i en bil så lenge. Derfor var det veldig godt å slippe kroppen ned i boblebadet i morges med varmt vann og mange bobler. Tusen takk til brødrene Jacuzzi og deres plager :-)
My body aches all over from not been able to move very much and sitting in almost the same position for so long. Then it was great to jump into the jacuzzi this morning with hot water and a lot of bubbles. Thank god for the Jacuzzi brothers and their illnesses :-)
Jacuzzien ble som mange andre ting til ved at noen hadde et personlig behov. Les mere om
boblebadets opprinnelse her....
The Jacuzzi was invented, as many other things, because a personal need. Read more about the Jacuzzi's history here....
Ikke helt et slikt jeg har på mitt bad, men ei jente har lov til å drømme, ikke sant? Not exactly this one that is in my bathroom, but a girl can dream can't she?

Bryllup / Wedding
fredag 21. august 2009
Fyn Danmark/Denmark
We have now arrived Strib, an idyllic small town on the island of Fyn in Denmark, wher we have settled down at Bjørns brother and his wife. Lars and Hanne. We are going to Lars' daughters wedding tomorrow, and we stopped by to wish them luck tomorrow.
Dagen i dag startet klokken 3 om natten, da våre lugarnaboer bestemte seg å ligge i hver sin lugar og rope til hverandre, Camillllllllaaaaa, Petttttttter - helt til både Bjørn og jeg bestemte oss for at nok var nok, og tok til motmæle - til ikke udelt glede.This day startet at 3am when our cabin-neighbours decided to stay in their own cabins and shout to eachother, Camillllllllaaaaa, Petttttttter - all the time until both Bjørn and me had enough, and talked back to them, not to their pleasure I have to say.
Klokka 7:30 var vi i land og satte kursen for Flensburg, Tyskland hvor vi fylte opp bilen med øl som skal over til vårt hus i Sverige, samt at Bjørn kjøpte seg en skjorte. Spiste en skikkelig god wienersnitzel med en øl på et microbryggeri før vi satte kursen til Fyn. Nå er det klart for en øl og masse prat før det blir en ikke så altfor sen kveld i dag.(tror jeg)
At 7:30am we docked and headed for Flensburg, Germany where we filled the vcar with beer that are going to be unloaded at our house in Sweden, and Bjørn bought a shirt. Had a real good wienersnitzel with a beer at a local microbrewery before we headed for Fyn. Now there are time for a cold beer and chatting with family before an early night (I think)
Skål/Cheers

Skal skrive mere så snart jeg kan. Ha en fin dag alle sammen.
I will writw more as soon as I can. Have a nice day all of you.

Bollnäs, Sweden
After an informative day at ourcustomer, I thought I would walk around in Bollnäs. But the weather gods was not agreeing with me today, when I was finished working the rain was pouring down and it was impossible to walk around without rainboots and a raincoat. And if it is something I am not usually bringing on customer trips, its raingear.
Så jeg jobbet et par timer på hotellrommet før jeg tok 20 minutter i solariumet. Deretter vanket middag i buffeten - og en liten øl. Og når jeg nå ser ut av vinduet, så har det sannelig sluttet å regne. Derfor - jeg stikker ut en tur mens det ennå er opphold. Kos dere.....
So I worked for a couple of hours in my hotelroom before I had 20 minutes in a sunbed. After that there was dinner in the buffet - and a small beer. When I look outside my window now, it has stopped raining. Therefore - I am out of the door while it is still not raining. Enjoy....

Hvis det skjer noe i morgen som er verdt å skrive om, så kommer det nok et lite innlegg i morgen også.
If something happens that is worth writing about, there will probably be some blogging tomorrow as well.

Sløv søndag / Slow sunday
I was out last nigh, with Astrid. And again the night was spent with beer, talks and looking at a lot of people. Was at "Brukbar" most of the evning, without realizing that there was a dancefloor in the basement. Felt a little bit "out there". Suddenly it made sense that they charged cover charge to get in.
I dag har vært en sløvedag uten like, har ikke gjort stor annet enn å pakke kofferten til reise i morgen. Sitter her å har lyst på "noe" men vet ikke helt hva det er jeg har lyst på. Dere har sikkert hatt det slik en eller annen gang dere også.
Today has been a lazsy day, havent been doing much more than packing my suitcase for my worktrip tomorrow. I am sitting here now craving for "something" but can't figure out exactly what. You have probably felt like this one time or another.
Resten av kvelden går med til film-seeing på TV'n, men en hjerneløs comedie man bare kan sløve seg igjennnom
The rest of the night will be spent in front of the TV with a braindead comedy you just can "sleep" through.

Ny telefon / New phone

I have finally exchanged my old HTC S73 with a new and a lot better phone.
Nå er jeg den lykkelige eier/bruker av en HTC Touch HD, med en mengde nyttige og unyttige muligheter. Det viktigste er at det er en PDA med touch-skjerm, den har GPS og Windows Mobile som operativsystem. Dette slik at jeg kan presentere alle PDA-produktene selskapet selger. I tillegg så er det selvsagt musikkspiller, kamera (5MP), nettleser og alle mulige oppkoblinger bare for å nevne noe.
Now I am the happy owner/user of a HTC Touch HD, with a lot of useful and not so useful possibilities. The most important is that it is a PDA with touch screen, with GPS and Windows Mobile OS. This is so that I can present all the PDA - products the company sells. In addition it has audioplayer, camera (5MP), web browser and all possible connections, just to mention a few.

Mørsvikbotn
I am actually quite tired of high mountains and long fjords, but when I am sitting on my fathers porch, looking at the fjord with the high mountains in the background with an ice cold beer in my hand, well then fjords and mountains are not that bad anyway :-)

Pacific Blue
Then I just relaxed the rest of the evening. Watched the semi-finale of the "Dirty Dancing" competition before I ended the Evening with Pacific Blue - that runs every summer on some TV2-channels.

Har aldri syntes at sykkeshort er sexy, men serien er en typisk feel-good serie som passer sommeren perfekt. Så fortsett bare Bobby, Cory, T.C, Chris og alle de andre, men å underholde oss hver sommer.
I've never thought that bike-shorts are sexy, but Pacific Blue is a typical type of feel-good series that fit the summer perfect. So, Bobby, Cory, T.C. and Chris, keep on entertaining us every summer.

Black Widow or Shadow
Og hva var det som var gjenstand for mine drømmer?? And what was the object of my dreams???
In OCtober 1987 I took the drivers lisence for motorbikes, and a few times the following years I was able to drive a bike, but I have never had one myself, and every summer I long for one.
Jeg har prioritert andre ting alltid, men nå ønsker jeg meg en sykkel mere enn før, og en jeg har hatt lyst på i mange år er Honda Black Widow. Nydelig sykkel med klassiske linjer. Og med en
slagkraft på 750CC er den stor nok for meg.
I have had other priorities alway, but now I want a bike more that ever, and one bike I always loved is Honda's Black Widow. E beautiful bike with classical lines. And with a motor of 750cc it is big enough for me.
