Lovely place and very quiet too. Norway is a wonderful country. We love going there.

This is where I live, it is possibly the most romanticized pic ever taken (all the industry and ugly bits cropped out), in reality it is a block of flats by an old dock, but I like it :)

Yes very good. The only thing that gives it away is the uneven roof line of the buildings. Otherwise could be Scandinavian at a stretch. :) If that makes sense?

It does make sense, yes :)

I could never understand why they were all built without uniformity.

But to be honest, if Britain looked like Norway I wouldn't appreciate the pic of Norway half as much as I do.
