I'd definitely love to see it, this kind of thing is always fascinating.

And if you need somewhere to put it, I'm sure I could sort that out too.

I'd be very much interested in the read, provided it was in english.

What, Nappe1 isn't Bitboys Employee after all?

to be honest, the inivitation happened already during Assembly 2004, but because our group members are located all around finland, we haven't found proper day to do it. Now it looks like that most of the guys are coming to Assembly, so it looks like it will happen then.

Anyways, we'll look possibilities to write an article about our visit. I have quite few times planned to write Assembly party report here, but I haven't found time to write notes while being at Assembly.

Of course not. That's Norway. You have fourtnight long sauna-vodka parties and lots and lots of lakes.

Oh. And please do a writeup on your visit.

Back when I was about 6-7 back in the 70s I really used to think it did, and that it was pretty much the same as Greenland & Iceland. (Well, they were all "lands" and they were all cold!)

Glad to hear it'll be in english, what is the swedish term for "stupid american" or the closest there of?

Nah... While you probably have a larger cance to get mauled by a bear in Sweden than in Norway it would be one of the dull brown omnivore kind somewhere in the deep Swedish woods. Unless the wolves get you first, that is. You only get polar bears in Norway of the three, and then only as a result of a technicality. They all have cute, long legged, blonde girls, though. 8)

I'd not heard that (obviously been away too long). Presumably it's derived from "septics" which is shortened from the rhyming slang "Septic Tanks".

All in all, not a very nice expression.
