    Since gf works at Scandic hotels, she gets discounts at other Scandics; in Stockholm we got a view to the garbage cans, a bed that rattled rythmically (by itself) and no minibar. In Bergen they left her a personalized greeting card and a fruit tray. They are not very consistent!

    It was always normal for me to go get groceries with short pants and a t-shirt during early autumn, in Norway, it was always perfectly normal. Summer in Norway always extended until October, and possibly beyond. It's fine! IT's FINE, I'm not sarcastic at all, it's normal.

    I'm usually into paleontology, and without exception, no article has been submitted there for years. There are sites that let you ask the author directly, but again, papers are typically constrained by their publisher.
