The following is what I went to post yesterday, when the internet became caput:

I tried on more wedding dresses yesterday. I had a whole gang of spectators and helpers: Mita (my sister), Ingvild (my friend), Mum and Margaret (my mum's friend). I must have tried on about 20 different dresses, none of which were nice until I tried the last one. That was a really nice dress, kind of similar to the one I tried in Liverpool. They were all oh'ing and ah'ing, but I stood there wishing I was wearing the Liverpool dress, so I think I might have to go for that one.

Last night I finally caught up with some of my friends. Thomas came over and later on Brita came down as well and we all walked around Vikanes together. That was really nice. Thomas came home with us afterwards and watched Desperate Housewives. Second episode of the second series. Looking forward to the second series starting in the UK. A larger gang of friends are coming to my place tonight at 7: Brita, Thomas, Bjørge, Kjersti and Astrid. Anders might come as well but I haven't heard anything yet. Can't wait to see everyone again!

Amit, Mita, Craig, Randi and I made gingerbread cookies yesterday. Probably made a few hundred. They tasted pretty good even though mum had put too much flour in the dough. She always puts too much or too little of something...

The apartment in Neasden seems to have been sorted out, so we are moving in in early January. We're meeting up with the landlord when we get back to the UK on the 27th, and hopefully it will be free for us to get the keys etc then. I really hope there will be no more problems or uncomfortable situations...

Today Craig and I will make pizza for dinner for the whole family so I better stop now as we have to go to get the ingredients...
