LC, I agree - always enlightening and informative. My wife and I were lucky enough to visit Svein, at his home in Norway, about a year ago. We had a week of being treated like royalty at his lovely home, situated on a hillside overlooking a lake. He picked us up from Oslo airport and it was like 2 old friends meeting again. He is a warm and amazing person and I have always been impressed by his breadth of knowledge and interests.
In that week, he showed us around his local area and took us on a couple of trips to Oslo visiting museums and places of interest. All this in spite of battling his illnesses but notably, enjoying his favourite cakes and ice creams.....
It was a fabulous week we enjoyed immensely and had planned for Svein to visit us this year but
Covid prevented that. Hopefully we will get over to see him again soon when the restrictions are loosened enough. We write to each other regularly so that will have to do for now.

JJ.

PS. Svein, did I manage to write all you told me to? .............Just kidding!!
