Erika Fatland falt på glatta og brakk håndleddet. Nå får kommunen gjennomgå. Kveldsturen søndag endte med brudd i håndleddet og tur til legevakten. Nå kritiserer Erika Fatland kommunen får manglende strøing.

Jeg har lenge sagt at Byrådet gjør alt for at eiendomsskatten skal gå ned og antall lårhalsbrudd opp...

Så leste jeg akkurat denne passende artikkelen:

Har ufrivillig hjemmekontor i dag, og ser at folk kryper på alle fire her på Risløkka!

Advarer: - Ikke reis hvis du ikke må Store deler av Oslos kollektivtrafikk innstilles på grunn av snøkaoset.

Jeg har aldri sett så dårlig eller mangelfull brøyting her i Oslo. Snøfallet er lenge varslet, og det evnes ikke å brøyte veier skikkelig. Fortau, sykkel- og gangstier er stort sett ikke brøytet. Synes det må være flaut for Byrådet jeg... www.dagbladet.no/nyheter/adva... #Vinter #Oslo #Snø

Our Christmas tree is decorated, and I just love the little handcrafted decoration from Käthe Wohlfahrt Christmas decoration shop in Rothenburg ob der Tauber. Fantastic and enjoyable memories from my childhood that I can pass on to my kids. #Christmas #ChristmasDecoration

Kan jeg nesten være enig. Vinmonopolet er Europas største innkjøper, så kanskje det sikrer FRP-velgerne billigere alkohol?

The hyper modern Barcode area in Oslo, between the Opera and the railway station, is one of my favourite locale photo spots.

The name Barcode comes from the building style which, seen from a distance, can be compared to a so-called barcode.

Jeg skjønner at det betyr mye for Danmark, men dessverre eksporter Norge langt mer til Tyskland og Storbritannia. Denne eksporten tror jeg at mange av oss skulle sett stoppet. Eksporten til Danmark er liten i denne sammenheng. Broderfolk er noe annet, og det sier jeg ikke bare for min kone er dansk…

Tror du bommer litt. Det er symbolpolitikk. Kabelen er gammel EOL) og har liten kapasitet. Den blir ikke erstattet. Problemet er langt større med de nyere kablene til Tyskland og Storbritannia, hvor erfaringen er at Norge tappes for strøm. I morgen koster strømmen opp til 13 kr kwh før subsidier…

Heldigvis ikke så galt i Norge i dag, men fikk med meg at KW-prisen i Danmark kunne gå opp mot 5 kr i dag.

Skrekk og gru!

The photo is taken from a low Point of View, almost the water level.

I'm wild at heart, and I feel most alive when I am shooting #birds!

This white-tailed #eagle catching a carp was captured a winter day in Pusztaszeri Tájvédelmi Körzet, part of Kiskunsági Nemzeti Park in #Hungary. This national park is known for its rich #bird life.

Being close on a Lynx!

The #photo is taken on of our visits to #Langedrag #Nature Park, where I had the pleasure of taking part in a guided #lynx hike.

The hike and the photo shoot was a fantastic way to learn more about one of the most shy #predators we have in Norway.

Oh, I can feel the little nerd in me… I want one! Hopefully it will come with a Norwegian 🇳🇴 keyboard soon.

Beautiful Brumleby Playground (Crooked House Playground) with its crooked towers in beautiful autumn sun with long shades. Yellow and red leafs. And a row of apartments on each side of the playground. The houses are all painted in yellow and white.

Beautiful Brumleby Playground (Crooked House Playground), Copenhagen, Denmark, is my favourite playground. I just love the place!

The idea of the playground was to recreate a piece of old Brumleby to remind us of its fantastic history.

Green train in a valley on its journey down to Flåm. Cloudy weather on a summer day. High mountains covered with lots of trees. On a train wagon you can see reflections of the rest of the train set and the clouds.

#Flåmsbana is one of Norway's most popular tourist attractions, and shows Norwegian nature at its most beautiful and magnificent. The line is a masterpiece of Norwegian engineering, that stretches from the high-mountain station #Myrdal (867 m.a.s.l.) down to #Flåm (2 m.a.s.l.).

I have played with Superlist (the reincarnation of Wunderlist) and Things, but prefer Reminders (iCloud for sharing with my wife) and (O365 for sharing with colleagues). Also use Reminders with Nextcloud.

Black and white photo of an old non functioning steam locomotive standing inside a great hall at Istvántelek Train Yard in Budapest.

I was once so lucky that I was allowed to enter a part of Istvántelek Train Yard (Istvántelki főműhely) in #Budapest, and take photos of old locomotives in various states.

It is one of the photo shoots I have the greatest memory of...

This is not the #Budapest many of you know, but one of my favourite places, Kelenföldi Erőmű.

When it opened in 1914, the power station was one of the most advanced power centers in Europe, but is better remembered for its ornate Art Deco architecture than its technological wonder.

Getting up early in the morning can be rewarding!

The breathtaking view that met me when I was visiting #Langedrag. A splendid view over a lake and the majestic mountains of Numedal and #Hallingdal. A visit to this beautiful family park comes highly recommended for both young and old!

Flekkefjord har hatt flere kampanjer på å få folk til å bosette seg i byen og kommunen. Det har ikke vært lett å få det til… Og mange flytter ut for å jobbe, for så flytte hjem som pensjonister. Flekkefjord ikke skattepengene, kun regninga når noen blir gamle. Jeg tror ikke jeg flytter hjem…

Dataingeniørens kamp mot omstridt datasenter på Jørpeland En eksplosiv utvikling i kunstig intelligens øker behovet for nye datasentre verden rundt. Dette gir grobunn for dype, lokale konflikter, ikke minst i Norge.

Meget god artikkel om datasentre i Norge. Jeg er motstander av nesten alle disse (natur, matjord og ekstremt få arbeidsplasser). Og hvis dette er det nye gullet, hvorfor selges det til utenlandske selskaper? Litt som om vi skulle ha solgt all rett til oljeutvinning…
