And the new 365 year and Christmas carolling get going. We played at the lighting of the Christmas tree in Hoyvík, and I have never been so cold when carolling!

I DID IT! This, my friends, is Photo 365. Read more here.

HUGE improvement today - I was able to go for a bit of a stroll, and I thought I'd take a photo of my favourite bookshop. I love this place! It was also the place to come for all your Mariah Carey-sticker needs, but after I mentioned them on my blog, they obviously became collectable, and are no more.

Rough and needing a shave, I was able to sit up (and even take a shower!):

Wednesday, November 26, 2008

I woke up this morning, unable to move, eat or drink... I have never felt this rough in my life. By 6pm, I'd managed to get to the shop over the road because I knew I had to drink something with sugar in it. While it may seem like a boring photo (well, it is), getting this bottle was a major achievement!

Not content with building their homes on the edges on cliffs, the Faroese like to make it as tough as possible to get in:

Today I received a DVD with some episodes of Harry Hill's TV Burp from England. Please tell me this Hole in the Wall programme isn't real... Faroe Islands, I'm sorry, but my people need me!

I've never seen this before...

I don't know how clearly you can see it on the photo, but this tree is a court case waiting to happen...

This is me sitting working in the library. Take note of the massive metal light next to my head. Every time I hit my head on the light (not a rare occurrence), the lampshade works as a giant gong, sending a HUGE ringing sound around the building...

The choir from the Salvation Army did a concert at this church on the island of Vágar (and unfortunately, due to the tunnel being closed for buidling works, we had to wait until midnight to travel back!).

ARGH. That feeling when you realise the trousers you've been walking around in still have this on the leg:

Thinking about it, this was a stupid time of year to shave my head...

The Christmas village is open at the SMS shopping centre!

I decided to have a new profile picture done (well, by me) for my blog, rather than one that says I have bad hair and I like Neighbours (although I don't know whether I like this one as much as I did when it was smaller on my camera...).

Saturday, November 15, 2008

I'm VERY excited about my advent calendar... (It's a proper Cadbury's one and everything!)

Friday, November 14, 2008

You'll notice that my shoulder has no bag on it, because it was nicked :( (not from my shoulder!)

I need to do something about this hair...

Local election day is today, so these signs are everywhere.

John has a spring in his step today!

An earlier version of the Faroese flag. I don't know why they changed it!

Saturday, November 8, 2008

I went for a walk today and found a river right near the centre of Tórshavn that I didn't know about...

Metal sheep outside the Nordic House. I like these :)

You don't see graffiti very often in the Faroe Islands. In fact, this is the only piece I know of. But I thought it was quite interesting because it's in Romanian. How did that get here?!

Fireworks Night, and not a single firework in the sky. They could have at least tried.

Tuesday, November 4, 2008

I've always been one to live on the edge... I was supposed to leave the fish in water for two days, but instead I left them in for a week, and look at them now!

Monday, November 3, 2008

Shattered, after getting up at 4.45am to catch the ferry back to Tórshavn... This was taken at 9am, and I was already ready to go to bed...

The Salvation Army corps (church) on the South Island (Suðuroy).

The island of Lítla Dímun.
