Pronunciation
Stupid English speakers always stress the second syllable in helSINki, when everybody in the world should know that in Finnish the stress is on the first syllable. More like HELsinki.
Actually I meant something horribly funny about someone not being able to pronunce Loughborough, Leicester or Gloucestershire.
All Loughboroughites should go to Poland and try to get directions there.

» My Worst Vomit
I really, really don't want to tell you this.
Why do you make me tell you this?
OK, I was at a new years party. The party was hosted by really adult people I didn't know, in a country I didn't live in. The hosts had children and things like that and I was still (still am) more in a "drinking is way fun" -period in my life.
At some moment during the evening I started feeling bad. I don't know if it was because of something I ate or something i drank or a combination of the two (I didn't think I was very drunk, but I might be mistaking here). Point is, I started to feel the urge to vomit really bad.
No prob, head discreetly towards the bathroom. Just one minor problem, there is someone in there already. Just another problem, you really are going to throw up in about 10 seconds so think really fast...
The best option seemed to be to vomit silently in the stairway, where the puke could easily be cleaned up. Said and done, open the door and let it rip....
After I had stopped convulsing, the one person I knew at the party came out to look for me and put on the lights. At this time I lifted my head and realised that instead of the stairway of the house, I was in the kids' bedroom. With the kids sleeping in there. Oh, the embarrassment.
What can I say? If you are one of the children and you read this in the future - I really am horribly sorry and will be happy to pay fore part of you therapy.

Norwegian Disco!
I was helping a friend move when an elderly gentleman held a door open for me. Imagine my surprise when it was Åke Blomqvist, the dance instructor who was mistaken for Norwegian in newsletter 166. (He actually is Finnish, as was later pointed out.) Brilliant man.

» Evidence that you're getting old
Lottery millionaire.
A couple of years ago a mate and me decided that the best thing to do if we ever became rich all of a sudden, would be to get a huge bag of assorted drugs.
Now I think that it'd be nice to have a Range Rover and a dog.
Oh, and earlier tonight I declined to go out for beer because "it's cold outside"... I'll die soon, I just know it.
