Norwegian National Day

Tomorrow

17th may.

The absurd thing is if you take pictures of the events around you in 2007 it looks like 1930.

They dress up all proper, if possible dress up in traditional clothes from their great ancestors. Then for breakfast drink home made booze,smear pig fat on their bread and wave flags saying "hurrah".

The alternative scene go to Cuba (a ufo landing platform) and not dance to groovy music. (drinking booze outdoors is illegal)

Children have a great time cause they get ice cream and the national dish. Soggy pancake surrounding a luke warm sausage. Food culture?

Highschool students have already been celebrating this day for one month, by , buying a mega van, renting a driver so they can party their asses off (better than a prom), however they have to where "uniforms" whith predesigned funky logos on them - all this would cost each student atleast 1000$ for basics. The day after tomorrow they have their final exams.

How mental is that?

i miss koningendag in Amsterdam.

Well, you are invited, 30-04 2008..so write that in your agenda, or tie a knot in your handkerchief, ..depending on what system you use...


..and anyway, it's not so bad, look at that short dress..and Norway is known for wind.

Merci for the invite, please send ticket.

short dress? My god how shameful

Oslo is in the armpit or vagina of scandinavia, wind is rare here
but indeed, it kicks ass for surfing on the outer coast.

I alway thought it resembled a penis, with Danmark being the "Kwak" ( ejaculated sperm)

These charming Dutch girls, (particulary the blonde one) will be waiting for you at Schiphol...

Either zed is making a lot of that up, talking about very few people or norwegians are more mental than I thought.

I don't even remember when our national day is, and we never do owt special that day, at least not the people I know.

I think we get the day off, possibly.
