Day:258, Words:258

The end of the week has arrived although there is little fanfare. Øksfjord lacks that certain Friday evening energy to celebrate the coming weekend. I suppose the coffee drop in rate increases and if it is a nice day, there might be a few heading up the mountain. One of the missing aspects is a social meeting place. Some afternoon drinks where work collegues are able to put a tough week behind them and relax with an ale or a chardonnay. Perhaps a dart board, a pool table or a good old fashioned karaoke machine would do the trick. On second thoughts, lets leave it the way it is....

An allegation of match mixing in the lower leagues of Norwegian football has produced a sour taste in the mouth of officials. A linesman was accused of betting on a game between Hammerfest and Lyngen and then having a direct influence on the result by awarding a controversial red card. The referee maintains that he did not bet on the game, although there have been officially registered compaints to the appropriate authorities.

An idiot that has been speeding on the roads of Troms and Finnmark has finally lost his license after posting videos of himself driving recklessly on You Tube. He has for years been driving in a dangerous fashion and his idiocy has finally caught up with him. There are very few police cars seen in these parts, so it is good to see the youth helping them out with their stupidity.

Have a relaxing and fun weekend!!
