Amazing and much-deserved!!
Hoping the book is translated into English soon!
I used to be indecisive, but now I'm not so sure...

That's an achievement indeed,
I used to love the Oliver Postgate books of "noggin the nog" think this was Norwegian. Also saw a great film from Norway "insomnia" set in the arctic circle, very well done........guilt is a terrible thing .
I don't have a plan......so nothing can go wrong!
