Picaresque.

This is the artist Guy Allott who explains the work of several UK artists, including himself, who are exhibiting work as part of the exhibition "Picaresque" at Hå Gamle Prestegård.

It amazes me to listen to what artists can come up with regarding meaning and thoughts.

Sometimes it is a little like "The Emperors new clothes."
(Sorry, if I offend someone here, that is not the meaning.)

Anyway, this is a place that I have seen so much I like, and sometimes too much of things I dislike.

The SALE´S are (soon) over.

The SALE's are over most places.

Today it has not stopped raining, so it is one of those days when the city is quiet and the shopping malls are packed.

I look forward to warm clothes and new wellies.

Tore Renberg.

I had the opportunity to meet and hear the author TORE RENBERG (from Stavanger) presenting his new book together with the publisher.

He is just back from a tour in the UK, where his book is out, and where he visited several bookshops to meet the readers.

This is the book I will start reading this weekend.

Take a look at this link for more information:

Sporty woman.

There are some sporty people around .......

A new donkey.

My friend and I were out on a "Walk & Talk" trip today, and discovered that the donkey family at Ullandhaug had got a new family member.

(I like the farmland we have, just 10 minutes away by car from the city centre.)
