Hello from Sunny Sweden, where the weather is at its best right now! The most common question I get this time of year is why am I in Sweden when its summer in Australia now. Anyway not much to do in winter here besides watches, drinking and beautiful blond snow bunnies

And now for everything I have in my apartment that comes form a country that begins with the letter S....

That would explain the why the quality is so average...

Where... Sweden or Australia? Both have decent government cover but you still would not want to rely on it. People who can afford private will get it. We pay for it in high tax, very high!

Sweden. I've read it is among the best in the world although I've also read taxes are pretty steep. How does private coverage work there...is it supplemental to the government care or completely different care?

They are a 5 min walk from my place to the bar I am meeting some I am meeting a few snowbunnies there in an hour. Stockholm is a great place to be single

and most of the girls around where I live wear some decent watches (rolex, ap, and of course lings). I'm happy to share the snow with you but not the bunnies :mrgreen:

As you can see plenty of snow.... this was from a while back when we got the first snowfall.... 14hrs of heavy snow, stockholm basically shut down.

Hejsan Scuba Mike, I'm getting scorched by the sun here down under right now but will be visiting Stockholm in January.
Perhaps a quick get together over a glass of warm glug wine?

Cheers/wessa.
