No. Coolness made the group and PM'd me, I joined mostly because this immigrant life of mine does not offer so many opportunities to use my own language. Jfar is an honorary Finn, thus entitled to join and Marimbo (nationality unknown joined for reasons unknown to me.

So we are four members. Two real Finns, one honorary and one fan https://www.sevenforums.com/group.php?groupid=43

If i search typical Finnish names (Kari, Jari, Matti etc, using Advanced Search > user Name), I can see that we have surprisingly many Finns here, considering that the whole population of my native Finland is 5.3 million. Almost every first name from the Finnish Top 20 list brings a few, though from those 12 you can find searching for Kari only three are certainly Finns.

Wow, thanks for the clarification :)

Kari, my late but sincere congratulations on your medal. Well deserved.

Thank you, Wally. How's life?

Good, thanks. I returned from Boston yesterday, had a good business trip. Working from home today, my wife went with my son on a field trip, so I am Mr. Mom for the day today. I prefer quarterly reviews....
You still have a couple more weeks to go until Angie is back, right? How many kilos did you loose already.... ?:)

No, 5 days to go. Angie starts from Rome Monday, drives slowly and stays two nights on the road, trraditional stops we always make when driving this route. First night in Toscana by our friends, second night in Swizerland Lake Lucerne, home Wednesday afternoon.

I've been these past weeks in a 'liquid diet', not lost any weight. It seems beerdoes not help you to lose weight
