The Final Countdown

We had the salvation's army over today to have a look at the final furniture to go, and they were picky! They didn't want our perfectly splendid sofa bed. I cannot believe them! So now we've put up one final ad and we're hoping someone wants it before we need to throw it out.

Now time really flies and there are lots of "last time" of different things, which make us really sad. We had one last dinner at Spizza a few week-ends ago. They still remember us! Last playdate with Atticus. Not that Hugo knew this then because then it would have been impossible to get him home after.


Last Girl's Night Out last night, which unfortunately resulted in yet another gluten disaster, but was good fun until the food reached the tummy, which happened about two hours after eating it. Why oh why is it so difficult that no flour means no flour?! We've had explanations like "but it's only a little bit of flour", or "but you need some gluten to bake bread" or "but it's only plain flour" (which is the same as wheat flour in the commonwealth it seems, hence full on gluten shock).


Hugo is coming to grips with the reality of us leaving and has realised that he is going to miss his friends from school. Although he now wants to watch dvd's in Swedish instead of English if there is a choice, and is looking forward to getting new friends in Sweden that will speak "like we speak" (which is to say Swedish as opposed to "like his friends speak" which is English).


He also asked how to spell Fågelparken (which is "the Bird Park" in Swedish) the other day, and started by himself with the "F". He got Fågel ("Bird") right after just asking which the next letter was, except for the G that was mirrored, but then he restarted with PA for "parken" in front for some reason and didn't have room for the other letters. We're very proud of him anyway!
