      @Filthy:

      I wonder why that area of of Finland is called Lapland? Is that where they invented lap dances?

      [emoji1]

      The Laps for which Lapland is named are really called the Samí. They’re an indigenous people whose traditional lands stretch from northern Russia through northern Finland and Sweden and into northern Norway. They have the same relationship to the reindeer as some Native American tribes have to the buffalo.

        That's where Santa Claus lived before he emigrated to the North Pole, right?

            Sorry, probably not funny. But every time I  hear about that area and reindeer and stuff. I think about mushroom shamanism and flying reindeer and stuff.

              They’re provided with appropriate clothing and some sustenance then sit their for two or three hours waiting to see something. He reckons one in five groups get to see the show.

              Exactly.  I'm not loving the idea of a trip like that for a 20% chance.  Now if I could hang out with some lap dancing Laplanders and maybe see Santa Claus, that would be different.

                  Fixed that for you.

                          @hajduk I hope that your daughter's ankle heals up well. It sounds like it's a stressful situation to find yourself in. 😞

                            @hajduk that is awful, I hope she recovers well. It is terrible to see your child in pain.

                                    Shiiiiit… so sorry to hear that buddy. She’s young though and with physio and good help she’ll heal up great I’m sure.

                                      I think it will be ok to the end.
                                      She gives lot of cries but also lot of forces. Amazing kids…
                                      I learned a lot these last weeks how kids can accept pains and thinks positive...
                                      Starts soon daily strapping ankle support. At least 6-8 weeks and physio. Full pakka!
                                      Thanks Reuben[emoji3577]
