thinking about opening a pub called "hope for trondheim" near 90. 20% benefit for msn users included, of course. Drinks served from 45% upwards, below doesn't really help you. And you have the ferry to clear up again.

Did you find this by pure chance? Everything else I try is a straight line.
Scenic indeed

No, a friend of mine sent me the link & details in an email. Perhaps somebody who lives in Norway who wished to make that trip discovered it? He should be passing near where Hubird lives about now...

You are all welcome to trondheim,

kr 4200 for red light driving (500 euro)
