Word for the day - iste, from my latest guest blogger, Mr R. Merganser

During an unexpected extra day in the land of the Swedes, I got up to some independent wanderings while you know who went to look after the baby neurons. I took the subway to Fridhemsplan on Kungsholmen, the island Laura cycles across to get to work, then had lunch in a park nearby. It was a short wander from there down a really beautiful street to the waterfront, which there's a walkway all the way along with great views to other parts of the city. I crossed a bridge to Langholm (there should be an accent on the a, to help differentiate it from our Langholm), which means long island, and hence today's word. It's a really nice spot for a wander with, again, lots of views. Here's some evidence:

There was also a brilliant spot for some refreshments on the way:

I just had time to cross back over the bridge and buy a bun for a beautiful girl (guess who) before heading to the station for 'Catching my flight home- take 2', which you'll be pleased to know was a success. Just time then for a shameless plug for the summer fair at my work: 30 June, 11am - 2pm, 49-55 Torphin Road, Colinton, EH13 0PQ. Should be a good day...

Thanks for reading, Hejdå!
