It very soon "Juhannus" here in Finland :D Its (HARD)midsummer party time along all those "thousands of lakes in Finland. Everybody want to go to they summer cottages to heat Sauna and take Koskenkorva :laugh: Weather forecast looks great now: sunny for hole next 5 days and enough warm (22-23C), no wind, etc..... Plenty of food in berbecue :laugh: :laugh: :laugh: Its just that time here, when we dont have night "at all"(so lightfull hole night), so its hard to celebrate next 3-4 days/nights, especially to me, cause i have come back to home just from Karelia / Russia journey, where i managed to sleep every night about 4 hours only.... too much very pretty girls hanging around everywhere.... :funny: :funny: :funny:

I wish to everybody nice weekend :D :D :D :D :D

Antti,

At our end of the world it is our shortest day (longest night) and the weather is crap. A very cold southerly (straight from Antarctic) with plenty of snow for the mountains.
Be careful with that Koskenkorva and don't drown in the lake.

Fraser.
