Sunday and films on TV

OK, we had some sun yesterday, so today it's back to usual with rain and mist! Thought for the day - when watching a film here on the TV, they put all the adverts into one 5 minute slot. Quite a good idea except for the fact that the slot seems to have a time that cannot be changed. There you are watching a great car chase, or romantic moment and then suddenly without warning you have an advert for pizza or gambling come in. No warning, no frame with the film name to show that there is a transition, just slap bang straight into the advert. Quite disorienting!! We have a friend coming over for a Danish lunch today. What is a Danish lunch you ask? Well it is open rye bread sandwiches made with an assortment of cold meats, soused herring in either vinegar, tomato, curry or cream sauce, egg salad, etc. all washed down with beer and one or two aquavits! We will probably walk her home over to Munkebottn - only a 10km walk there and back, but at least not too up hill as much of Bergen is quite hilly. P.S. just before posting - we did the walk in driving rain and gale force winds. Even the rain gear couldn't keep the rain out! Amazing how wet it can get!
