Hei Jari

Kiitos for the link. Your town looks wonderful but my suomi is not good, so I have to say 'En ymmärrän' to all of the text!

I couldn't see a flag either Mike, but I typed "in English" into the box and it came up in English.
You must despair of us only understanding English Jari!

To be fair Marian, all of the Scandinavian and Baltic countries all have their own languages and Finnish is very different apparently. I was talking to an assistant in a dept store in Helsinki and she was telling that she can't speak Swedish and so usually ends up talking in English or German to customers!
