Luckily for me the neatest Ikea is way too far away, plus no desire or need to go there.
Lots and lots and lots of classic American cars, there's a car meet at Vasteras. One poor guy in a big black Ford thing had run out of juice. Now when we do that a 5l plastic can I see enough, not foe him, he has a full 20l jetty can. And from the way he was carrying it, it was full.
Some classic car pics, uploading while eat my cheese rolls.
SWEEEEEEEEEET

Safely on board, though nearly panicked when I looked up and the cars in front of me were gone!!
New Dee tucked up til tomorrow.
And I’ve seen my first real signs of Swedish football fever.
Cabin is great, room for me & bag, said bag being a bit heavy with provisions.
Plus I can watch the footie, in Swedish of course!!
And I get a nice view.

Don’t start with that malarkey, I’ve already had to stop myself heading down to check!!!!
And I’ve double dibbed the locking so the alarm won’t go off. But it won’t be rough, it’ll be flat as a mill pond.

And can I point out that this is a very European, in spite of my wicked Brexit tendencies. Sitting watching the footie, in Swedish, on a Swedish registered ferry, in a Swedish port, that will sail through Danish waters to Germany, while drinking Polish beer and with Finnish soft drinks and Norwegian Reindeer Droppings in the bag, before driving through Germany, the Netherlands, Belgium and France to Blighty tomorrow.
All very European.

if during the night an emergency on board, you already know three siren touches, and they had to throw a passenger, and only one, overboard to continue the journey, imagine who would be? lost in translation!

Luckily I'm a Scotsman. We get the luxury of supporting absolutely anyone we want as we naff all chance of supporting our home "nation".
And I’ve double dibbed the locking so the alarm won’t go off.
er … isn't it single-dib = locked, double-dib = deadlocked and ultrasonic alarm active ?

Well spotted that man, you win the prize.
No, double dibbed as set one press to superlock via the IID. I know it works coz when I was sleeping in the car first night I forgot about that and only single dibbed, then sat up and the alarm went off. Sorry Chinese peeps in the nearby lay-bye.

View from the pointy end, ISTR nautical types call it the bow.
Note sad peeps huddled over phones. The general conditions are one of depression. I am so dead if I’m caught smirking!!
