Hello, I’m back – after 19 hours of travel. I left the hotel at about 7:20 this morning and got home at about 5:30 p.m. which was 2:30 a.m. Stockholm time. You see what I’m getting at. 7:20 Sunday morning to 2:30 Monday morning, on the road. It’s a bit fatiguing.
But never mind that. I had the most brilliant, incredible time – it was the best ever. I met all these terrific, brave women…
like Sara Mohammed of Never Forget Pele and Fadime –
like Sara Mats Rasmussen who burned a hijab in Norway on Women’s Day 2009 and has a regular column in Aftenposten
and many more. And that’s quite apart from what a great place Stockholm is.

no one is sure if it is tribute, political message or mockery?
Is it however fodder for B&W …
Yes, welcome back – I’ve been missing my daily dose of sanity.
Will three hours be enough? Hahahahahaha…
Thanks scott. Yes, fodder, I think.
Uh………right.
