A fun word. Långbänk. It can mean a long bench, but it is also a political term used when an issue is being dragged out for a long time.
Swedish word of the day. Kyrktorn. Gustaf Vasa church tower seen from a park bench at Vanadislunden.
Swedish word of the day. Renovering. Restoration of the Century-old Stationhouse at the Tungelsta commuter station. The building is owned by the municipality. They are replacing the old panelling.
Swedish word of the day. Klåda. Itch. Never much fun, and never when out and about. And absolutely not when there's a photographer just behind you. Or maybe I am wrong, and he was on the phone with a college who informed him that he forgot his wallet at the office.
I walked around Lake Muskan in Ösmo earlier this week. It is a 9km walk, mostly through a forest, but close to the water most of the way. It was me and one of the usual suspects. We set off from Breddal. Oh, and Swedish word of the day. Flytbrygga.
Swedish word of the day. Ljusgranar. You can buy these at Flaggstångsspecialisten at Stav in Tungelsta. There are zero streetlights here so these Christmas light trees really stand out in the dark.
Swedish word of the day. Lekpark. Playground. Surrounded by brand new, and also quite old, architecture at Hjorthagen, close to the water at Husarviken.
Swedish word of the day. Fjärris. I got another julkapp yesterday. Took a while to install it, but the new Xiaomi Mi Box set-top box is working fine now. With this tiny remote, I can now control Netflix, HBO, C More, Viaplay, Prime Video, YouTube, and anything Google. This probably means that I will be watching a lot of TV in the coming weeks and months.

Swedish pastry/word of the day. Citronmazarin, lemon tart, at my favourite cafe, Malmens konditori yesterday It was very tasty. Enjoyed it while speculating about the outcome of Sweden's first game at the 2016 Euro, the match against Ireland. My guess was very wrong btw.
The mirror pond at Skogskyrkogården. There is a dog leash on one of the benches. It was still there a couple of days later.
Swedish word of the day. Kulturfestival. A snap from the recent cultural festival in Stockholm. This was very early in the day at the scene at Skeppsbrokajen on the first day of the festival.
Swedish word of the day. Byggnadsarbetare. Construction worker. Some photoshop on this photo and I'm curious to see if you can figure out what I have done and perhaps even why.
Swedish word of the day. Höstbild. Autumn photo. If you walk into this forest at the cemetery in Österhaninge you can find a runestone from the Viking Era.
Swedish word of the day. Begravning. A funeral at Hoppets kapell at the woodland cemetery. The chapel was designed by Gunnar Asplund in 1940.
Swedish slang word of the day. Flakmoppe. These three-wheelers are very popular out on the islands in the Swedish archipelago. With them you can transport stuff in style.
Listen to me closely, lend me your ear
The substance of my statement lets you know I'm sincere
Government officials, shapers of the land
I've got to to tell you something you need to understand
You can't take God away from me
You can take my life, my land, my liberty
Lock me up, I'll still be free
'Cause you can't take God from me
You can take God out of the law
You can make me listen to ya'll
You can take God out of the start
But you can't take God out of my heart.

A special "thank you" goes to the hubby who always puts up with the craziness I - and sometimes he - has to go through for these SP's sometimes!
Swedish word of the day. Vädra. From the noun Väder. Weather. To open the window and let fresh air inside.
Swedish word of the day. Gräsklippare. Lawnmowers. That time of the year again when the lawnmowers rein free (almost), at the Woodland Cemetery, as seen here at the Meditation Hill. Oh, and a bit of breaking news, I spotted one guy out driving, with a remote, a brand-new looking lawnmower on the other side of Almhöjden.
