Wow, so you are almost norwegian then?
Not bad!
No, I like it, too!
I just HAD to comment it when you mentioned the short days and everything..
I would not say you are living in Africa compared to me, but you are FAR south all right..
No, problem, it was just a joke. But people who are living in northern countries are very patriotic. Not only for the country, for the north! Even here (

) it is so. In Schleswig-Holstein there is a big Viking-Cult. Schleswig was, 1000 Years ago, the important Viking-Town "Haithabu". A very historical place, but nearly everything has been destroyed.
Me, I'm just waiting for the sun to return...
Did you know that a big part of the population here suffer from various sleep-problems, depressions etc due to the lack of daylight in winter??
StigYes, I've heard about that. It is said that the north of Norway, northern Sweden and northern Finland have a high suicide rate as well.
But I think this darkness can be used very well for composing atmospheric music. Or not?
Here in Bremerhaven the sun is behind the fog today... . No big advantage of living southern...
