Sunday, April 13

I woke up this morning aching all over. I should do that more often, I thought. I need to find more houses to clear.

Today we went to vote in the local elections. The mad decisions that the Green Party have made in Helsinki made this an unusually difficult decision. We both refuse to endorse their intransigence over the boulevards–into–Helsinki idea that almost everyone opposes and nobody supports.

We voted, as usual, at Botby Grundskola, the local Swedish–speaking school. Then we bought coffee and cake from the local scouts and sat outside on a bench eatching other people come and go.
