I shall

At night, when I tiptoed back to our bedroom, he lifted the cover and said with a pleased tone:

"To the parallel park!".

Yöllä, kun tassuttelin takaisin makuuhuoneeseemme, hän nosti peittoa ja sanoi tyytyväisellä äänellä:

"Taskuparkkiin!".

Open that door

 

 A question of the day.

What kind of people bring with them their own (quite ordinary) wine glasses to a home, where they know to be wine glasses?

Mr Bunting sipped his milk slowly, and put a point

When do you know that you are small?

When a bin man hits you with a waste bin and doesn't notice a thing, untill you start to scream..

Milloin tietää olevansa pieni?

Kun roskakuski osuu roska-astialla sinuun, eikä huomaa mitään, ennen kuin alat kiljua..

Sorry to trouble you, but could you tell me if a gentleman who looks like a dachshund lives here?

I guess it is a some kind of a giveaway of the nature of our trip, when in Paris, suffering from a terriable fever, I dremt about a pony, that was small, had a red coat and it's breed was Côtes du Rhône..

Jotainhan se matkasta kertoo, kun kuumehoureisena Pariisissa uneksin ponista, joka oli pieni, punakarvainen ja rodultaan Côtes du Rhône..

Calling for London

This is a message for you, our - shall we say devoted - reader in London. There is only one of you, so make no mistake, we mean you.

We write this blog of ours to our friends and family. No one else. We are not looking for a greater audience (unless you're interested in publishing us - hardy har har). The stuff here is private - we write about the near and dear to us - about our lives. We don't have RSS-feed, we've blocked NextBlog function and don't want to be found via Google - we want to remain private.

As far as we know, you are neither family member or a friend, so we wish, that you would discontinue to visit here. If you don't, we will be forced to make our blog private, it's as simple as that.

We hope you'll find something else that interests you from the blogosphere or perhaps - being so keen - even start a blog of your own..

I hardly think I would be prepared to go as far as that

An offer that one can not refuse?

The Gout Man: "You should join that swimming club. Once a year in February you receive a letter at home. They serve coffee and pulla here in the swimming hall to those invited. And you also get a free bag and shampoo as well. And it doesn't cost a thing."

-----

Tarjous, josta ei voi kieltäytyä?

Kihtimies: "Liity säkin tuohon uintikerhoon. Aina kerran vuodessa helmikuussa saat kirjeen kotiin. Täällä hallilla sitten tarjotaan kahvit ja pullaa kaikille kutsutuille. Sitten saat ilmaisen kassin ja shampoota ja silleeen. Eikä se maksa mitään."

Have you noticed a peculiar thing as you go through life?

A woman talks about her happy relationship:

You have nudist views?

"Some time before, when he had found it impossible for him to be in her presence, still less to converse with her, without experiencing a warm, clammy, shooting sensation and a feeling of general weakness similar to that which follows a well-directed blow at the solar plexus, he had come to the conclusion that he must be in love."

In The Coming of Bill by P.G. Wodehouse

Exactly five years ago we went on our first date. That night eight-year friendship changed into love..

Päivälleen viisi vuotta sitten menimme ensitreffeille. Tuona iltana kahdeksan vuoden ystävyys muuttui rakkaudeksi..
