An oldie from Sweden comes to a new forum....

[Niked]

Welcome to the Planet Oh friend from overseas ! We had a load of your mates over here a few hundred years ago wearing helmets with horns on !!! just joking mate seriously I bow to your superior knowledge and experience but if theres something you dont know and I do, which is very doubtful, you only need to ask!!!!

Only a truly ignorant person think he knows it all... so I will surely ask. Btw, the vikings did NOT have horns on the helmets...

Hi mate and welcome

Roller is my current fav as well (with a KFL) .. you got many stores etc in Sweden ?

Thanks! Yes its beutiful!
No, just a few online stores that are overpriced... Thats is why I rather order from good suppliers in the UK even with the shipping rates.

there is quite a lot of evidence that suggest the Horned helmets were a romanticism during the Viking romance period in Victorian times

very impractical for fighting in

Yep!

Blimey I was only having a laugh, I didn't know I was going to get a History lesson !!!!

Its important! Otherwise you get a false impression... and how would the besserwissers survive... ie me!

Welcome to POTV ! Do you know Bjorn Borg? Great intro

Ehm... no... But thanks!

Welcome to the planet, I must admit, I would personally like to thank you and your fellow countrymen for the following exports, that has shaped my life: -

1. ABBA
2. Saab
3. Ikea
4. PORN!!!!

1. Only being appreciated in recent years
2. To bad they died horribly...
3. Yay, taking over the world!
4. Well... maybe in the 70's... not so much today (sad to say!)

Anyway, thank you all! Quick reply!!!

Hi Niked and welcome,

Thank you!
Its nice, but it could be better... I dont like the cold during the winters! -20 is not for me. Maybe I was ment to live in spain or somewhere hot... But the nature is nice, if you like that kind of thing. I like indoors and a computer -vaping!

I can cope with -20, kits a small price to pay for empty spaces and a bit of proper wilderness...
