Urm... I just noticed that my power cord might not be pluggable into
Finnish sockets. 

Does anyone know anything about that?

Or, possibly preferable, if anyone owns or has access to some kind of
universal socket adapter, can he bring it to Bromarv? Not sure I 
can manage to buy one tomorrow morning...

christian I'm flexible and I'd enjoy doing something on Tuesday. I
christian might stay around another day as well for that matter. So
christian far I haven't decided if I'll fly there, or go by ferry and
christian motorcycle/car.

Looking at the timetables, only Finnair gives me an arrival date of
11h40 on Thursday (which is OK to catch the bus), but the return would
have to be on monday (12h15) or wednesday.

Last week there were many other flights, and with more interesting
rates :(

But in principle I would like to stay until tuesday.

Originally I was thinking about Thursday-Monday as usual but given the 
timetables that'd mean absolutely no work on Thursday and Monday, which 
is a bit below business as usual. So I think about taking the return 
flight on Tuesday - which, otoh, would not be _that_ nice if I were the 
only one hanging around in the waters of Finland ;-}


So: When do other people come?
