No, huh?

Okay, anybody want me to bring back somethin' for 'em?

If so, Email and I'll consider it. (No Saabs unless you pay shipping.)

And en route I'm in London for lunch this Friday 15 July at 11 am, Coach & Horses on Greek St., Soho. If you're in the vicinity, do drop in.

Ouch! Saab is a Swedish company - the traditional rivals of the Finns due to their occupation of Finland.

If you are looking for something to bring back, Finnish textiles are very nice

Well yeah. We'll be in and out of Stockholm for 10 days before the con, so I've been in swedemode for a while now...

Our Flight to the Finnish won't be until 27 July.

The mere title of the Con concerns me a bit...

Hope "Hang 'em High" isn't the in-flight movie.

I can think of a few things I would like to see if they exist... I mean, I know they do, but not very likely found in the US. Maybe I can email you, Frank.

Those who can, don't. Those who should not, do.
