Tampere....














Two days/16hours of intensive sitting in the Karate's World Championships... otherwise pretty well organised but unfortunately the organisers had more like "Karate-Kid-the-movie"-games in their minds than World Championships. All the cliche rock songs with the help of an announcer with all the "Are you ready ? I said ARE YOU READY ? Look at those tiger eyes of our lady competitors ..."-cliches and 20 seconds National hymns instead of the normal a bit more uplifting stuff one would expect from world championships. Well maybe it's just me...


Tampere is great ... I like it more every time I visit it. The view from the room in the 15th floor in the Hotel Ilves was nice. Specifically love the fact that there is still a working factory with all that steam bursting into the air. The lakes everywhere...

Say No - it is great

"No thanks. Not interested." - what a wonderful & respectful response! Good straight forward fast "No" keeps thin...
