(the only other bit of swedish I know, goes like this: Orn-dish de born-dish der-rinn der-git de-goo...but I don't think the Muppets' Swedish Chef really speaks anything swedish, does he?)
Have you had any more golden-hand type jobs in the pipeline at all?

A very happy birthday to a very interesting letterhead. I remember when my son was doing a science project about paper towels and you gave a lot of input...and since then you've shared a lot about your part of the world.
We have half of our town being Swedish, there's a lot of Swedish pancake establishments around here! Sounds like a good thing to eat right now, and we'll have some tomorrow and toast to you!

Many thanks to all of you for your wishes and thoughts, doesn't feel much different being 50, the only worrying thing is its less than 10 years to 60!
We clebrated with about 30 friends at home on saturday, Valentines Day and I got my old blow up heart out, a left over from touring with a well known band.
With the love of my life!
Åsa's sister and the guys that work with me.
and the little jewel in our lives 4 year old Lettice, our teenagers were there too but I wont bore you further!
Yesterday was the real day, and my day was preoccupied with trying to contact Chuck at Letterhead fonts, but they don't reply, even after agreeing to help. They have banned Sweden amongst other countries from buying on line, due to our laws on piracy, which is an irony as the largest site in the world for that is in court here this week, there servers were raided and closed here in Sweden in 2006 and with that a 1/3 of Europes internet traffic ceased overnight.They have 25,000,000 users worldwide, we are 8 million up here.
Sweden is fighting piracy, and I feel very angry and frustrated that I as a loyal supporter of LHF over many years am now effectively banned just because of where I live.
I even tried to re register using my name and address in the UK, I still am a British citizen, and hold a UK drivers licence, but Chuck has listed all the English counties but forgotten that Wales and Scotland are apart of the UK too, I lived in Powys, Wales the second largest county in the UK!
Anyway that kind of took the edge off yesterday,
I was trying to buy:
Tallington Lakeside Signmaker Saddleback Red Sable script
I even called Dave Corell, I would love a current phone number for Chuck Davis, I have 2 numbers on old reciepts that are no longer in use, and my mails address to them was wrong, but I believe I am using the current one.
Just seems a shame that honesty gets punished too. I would gladly pay double the LHF price for the same fonts direct to the designers to make sure the money went in the right pockets, but then they all have contracts.....what a crap world at times.
Edit for pic error!
