Merry late Christmas cuz, cuz in law and 2nd cuz! (the list is growing....ha ha) Thanx for the nice video cuz and family. Your video sparked and old memory for me. My mom told me that when she was a kid growing up her father (my grandfather Einar Robertson, the fisherman from Lysekil) didn't have much money so Grandpa used to go out in the woods for his Christmas tree. Most wild trees are kind of spare, so he cut branches from other trees and take those home too. When he got it home, he'd drill holes into the trunk of a spindly tree and poke the branches into those holes to fill it out!! ha ha Clever old cadger, eh?......gotta watch dem Swedes...... Take care and see you soon.

Merry Christmas cuz and cuz-in-law!! You have a way of making me feel like I'm right there with you guys! I saw some pix of Sweden 1967 where overnight you guys went from left hand drive to right hand drive. THAT must have been a mess. I'm used to right hand drive and in my travels I always was apprehensive (scared CRAPLESS actually ha ha) when as a pedestrian I crossed a busy city street that was left hand drive, plus sitting in a taxi front seat where "normally" (to me) the steering wheel SHOULD have been. Maybe it was a good thing that I usually spoke a different language than the driver who almost killed me..the words I threw at him as he drove away!! *&^%*%%*& Take care and thanx for yet another nice video.
@CarinaMalmstedt11 күн бұрын
Thanks for your nice comment cuz! Well I was born in 1967 so I don't remember anything of that, but my parents have told me that it was not easy going from driving to the left side to the right side. I have been driving in England, where they still have left driving and that is something for the brain. It was not easy. We will see if we will drive in any left driving country with our RV. I wish you a very nice christmas and we hope for some snow, but I think we have to live without that this year as well. Take care and talk to you soon. 🥰

Oh and another thing.....both you guys being scandanavian, but sure to keep your hockey sticks....they make great back scratchers.
