Thanks for all your wellwishes!
The whole country is in a state of euphoria.And in the final ,anything can happen though,on paper the french are stronger but not that much and besides we are almost on hometurf in Sweden,so a close match is in store,as well as today my wife and I have enjoyed that we dont have to witness this nerewracking stuff untill tomorrow-so a kind of free day,today ;

Oh, and a free membership - I didn´t know ,before you told me !?

Forøvrig, lykke til med morgendagens match, det trengs ;)

Hilsen en Fjeldabe

Det var virkelig dejligt at det gik så godt.Faktisk en del hårdt arbejde - og så lidt held.Hmm,lyder det ikke som en opskrift vi har hørt før !?

Og ja,det er både med gru og glæde at jeg ser frem til morgendagens match. Fjeldaber kan vel sagtens ordne en flok bacondyr ...;)

Nah,måske det er win-win : Er det ikke som om det ligger i luften at nu er det ved at være jeres tur !?

For 6-7 måneder siden havde jeg Norge som 55-45 favorit og det gælder stadig. Skal jeg vride armen rundt og kommer med et gæt er det 1-1.Moa scorer det første og Agger udligner ;). Er Bendtner ikke med er det nok 65-35.

Og tillykke med din fine placering hos
<lostemperor>!.Et fint forsvar af den gule trøje.

i've returned two weeks ago from that trip to bluxelles, pretty cool place (and the weather was fantastic all the time too, we only had rain in a single evening - and everybody there was telling us this is very rare in april to get so many sunshine and warm days - 15-27).

right, bruxelles with many etnical groups living together apparently with no problems. we visited also bruges (absolutely cute city, we even took a tour by boat around the old center - i've completely forgotten it was crossed with channels like amsterdam), gent(also a very pleasant surprise, with all those cathedrals gathered in the center) and liege. the belgians appeared as quiet, nice and civilised people.

we didnt get to amsterdam as a bit far but we plan to reach there for a week next year.

I also used to enjoy Bruxeelles when I came there during the 90és.Visited a good friend and his girlfriend,and as you, enjoying the international atmosphere as well as some blitz !? Most interesting to hear about his work at the commission...Not to forget horsegambling and some Leffe Blanc´s !

And yes I try to follow the Candidates closely,despite the number of games are too short to find a fair winner IMO.

I like to follow Kamsky and the more the heat increases the more I involve personally/emotionally.But at the end of the day(as a certain Kasparov always say;)I like all the players more or less the same.Perhaps like you do ? It must be incredible nervewracking to sit at the tables with so much at stake.I would prefer sitting here and kibitzing with you !

All the best virgin and thanks for your report.

See you around !
