Mark swears that he's going to post about Norway tonight, so I'll leave the serious post to him and put a zany post on - all the crazy street signs in Bergen!! Part of it is just bodgy translations (Norweglish??), and the rest is just that things are slightly different cos it's a different culture..Here's the sign for our local Bergen Now Age Shop - except by the time we got into the shop it wouldn't be Now anymore, so what's the point?
This is the pedestrian crossing sign in Norway. I love it cos the little dude looks so shifty - like an old school spy with his trench coat and fedora. Mark was going to pose underneath the sign in the same shifty pose, but there were too many people around all the time...
And here's our local Netty Undertoy store - this is an underwear store, in case you can't see through the reflections on the window, that's why Mark's looking so happy standing in front of it...
This is technically not a crazy Bergen street sign, but it's still pretty funny - a travel agency ad.And the last one is just for Ray...
And lastly, Mark's news of the moment is that he is anti-everything-i, except ipaqs. QED.

Fartsmuseum! Yes, I did crack up when I read that! I assume there was something else before the F though?
There were a couple of letters, but I can't remember what it actually said. It was something funny and Norwegian. But that's an insignificant detail!!
