Hello Ststone,
I can imagine your nostalgic feelings being away. There is a special atmosphere around here these days as you know.Children are tense because they know they are getting presents.Parents ask themselves if they have prepared everything well.
But I think this is the ultimate example of threadjacking !
Sinterklaas will take you and me to Spain I guess for not obeying the forums rules.

line 1. Mid-Winter Nights cold and hard
Viktor Rydberg : Tomten
In nordic folklore, a tomte was a kind of - not always benevolent - vätte (spirit or minor deity) connected to a farmstead.
Rydberg's immensly popular poem, first published in 1881, transformed him into a combination of fatherly guardian and philosopher. Combined with the gift-giving Julvätte ("Christmas vätte") of Rydberg's earlier story Little Vigg - and, of course, with foreign influences - he then evolved into the modern Jultomte, local version of Santa Claus.
The young artist Jenny Nyström (1854-1946) illustrated both the poem and the story - and thus embarked on a 60-year career devoted to creating the visual image of the Swedish christmas.
In 1960 the poem, suitably adapted by Astrid Lindgren, was made into a children's book with new illustrations by Harald Wiberg. In this form it had - and still has - considerable success on the international market.

How to understand the Swedish people
do not forget to use special keyboards commands
for å, ä, ö (aa, ae, oe)
http://www-lexikon.nada.kth.se/skolverket/swe-eng.shtml
I am afraid this national poem is slighly paraphrased (twisted)
midvinternattens köld är hård
mid winter night's cold is hard (tough)
I am afraid you have to have winternights like the swedish or canadian, to get the feel of it

said above >>>"Why Per has to leave ?
Sigh............... I said it in jest since Peranders had used my rehabilitation as an example. It was a bit of harmless fun and I don't want anybody to go away."
This is typical of forums and part of the problem. One never sees a face or hears the tone of voice. Tongue in cheek, irony, etc.. is often taken seriously or if you start down a road that is taken poorly by someone (knocking the pet project whatever) you never have a chance to take a "facial" reading and adjust accordingly..
Anyway, Im kinda new here and do not post much, but I wish everyone would come back in...... Frank, Dice ........
The collective IQ went down with their leaving.
Tis the Season

Re: Re: fowl
I am sure several of us did, but it's hardly fair that native
speakers of swedish point it out.
BTW, you ought to go to sin bin for posting a travesty of
Rydebergs classical christmas poem. OTOH, posting the whole
original in swedish would probably have been more than most
people could bear. I don't even remember how long it is.
