    The Nazi Women exposed as every bit as bad as Hitler’s male followers

    Portrayed in soft tones and pastels, their beatific gaze stared from billboards and freesheets across the land. Blonde, fresh-faced and pure, these were the women of Hitler’s Third Reich. They were prolific mothers, skilful homemakers, hard-working secretaries and dedicated auxiliaries. They...

    New Years Eve

    Had a great New Year's Eve, lots of nice people, lots of good food and drink and when the clock turned 12 we turned off all the lights, laying the farm in total darkness and started up the fire works (I love fireworks).

    What's for Dinner?

    I'll have no one backtalking lutefisk please. It is part of Norwegian traditional Christmas food and I admitt that it is an aquired taste (I hated it as a kid) but once you get used to it it is swell food. Served with bacon, mashed peas, pork rib fat and potatos. And Akevit and Christamas beer...

    What's for Dinner?

    Fresh fillet of pike in mandarin sauce with roasted almond flakes, wild rice and veggies from the wok. There was a one and a half cm layer of ice along the shores as I drew the nets this morning so I guess it was the last really fresh pike this season.

    Cap question

    I often wear flat caps or a sixpence as they're usually called around here. My favourite for this time of the year is a woolen charcoal one made by Ralph Lauren. It cost me an arm and a leg, but this is the fourth autumn I'm using it and it still looks new so I guess it was worth it
