Up at 06:00 (0400 BST) to get underground and electric train from a suburb of Helsinki to the airport. Uber modern electric trains and huge underground stations (apparently they double as air raid shelters - the Russian border is not that far away and these guys have previous with each other) - all public transport, (buses, trams, underground and trains) in and around Helsinki is uber modern, fast, integrated and relatively inexpensive - £4.60 in total to get from the suburbs to Central station and to the airport. Next stage 55 min flight to Stockholm. ☺

Cheers guys - on the bus to Stockholm from the airport and staying on a boat 'Red Boat' near the old town. A bit of sightseeing is in order I think.

Sipping a beer in O'Leary''s - an American themed pub believe it or not- right next to the Friends Arena. Sipping because there is still just over 3 hrs.to kick off and, as predicted, the beer is £7.50/£8.50 for 50cl. 😧

I did say first up on this thread
'Try not to greet at the price of a pint'
How the fvck do they ever get p1shed in Sweden at those prices. Or is getting p1shed an alien concept
Never been to any of the Scandi countries and I'm not in any rush to go either.

If you remember the scene in 'Good Morning Vietnam' where Robin Williams says 'they are all gorgeous and they all look alike'. Same applies to the stunningly, beautiful girls on the Nordic countries.
