Winter was slowly turning to spring, and believe me, in the North of Finland it really happens slowly. In mid-April we were finally over the worst, and it was no longer completely dark at 9 pm. I was driving home from my other hobby (yes, I have other hobbies than UE too), when I noticedContinue reading “Let the Destruction Begin”

I also wonder, why they had a railway track upstairs and why a wall was built right acrossContinue reading “A Grand Piece of Sawdusty History Part II”
