My son Samuel ( 5 ) & myself had this conversation. " Dad ,Santa lands on the roof with his reindeer & delivers the presents down the chimney ?" " Yes, he does " "Santa eats a bit of the mince pie, doesn't he ?" " Yes, he does " "And his reindeer eats some carrot ? " I nod. "But his reindeer doesn't come down the chimney " "No he doesn't, no" I shake my head... "So how does he eat his carrot & leave some down here?" I shrug my shoulders. "That's a bit weird isn't it ?" I do the blank face here. "Well, I think Santa takes it up onto the roof for him" I say. " .....then brings back the end bit after, that's stupid " Is his reply. "Errrm..... !" W**F

I get some curious looks at times Worse still is when it snows, as each end of the lane kicks up a tad, enough to halt all but the smuggest 4x4 driver. I can see the look on their faces "Yeah 4x4 in London, not such a bad Idea now ehh ? " Still gauls me though, that is until I decide to buy one, then I shall defend it as an "absolute necessity" "oh but when it snows, you'll see" I'll cry W**F

In brief its very cold now, minus 5 degrees but add the wind blown off the North Pole & you can imagine, parky comes to mind. My head froze like a lolly on the chair lift. Snow flurries whipped around us chilling our bones I did see the Northern lights on Tuesday, very grand in blue, green & yellow. Fussii came & got me up at 1.30 am to show me. You quickly give up the notion of early in the morning or late at night, it all becomes pretty arbitrary when it's dark most of the time. They really look forward to the snow here, it brightens the winter up. Obviously they are very well geared up for it, roads are cleared & all the houses are heated to 21+ degrees by ground pumped naturally heated Volcanic water. Basically a huge pipe runs round the towns , tapped into like we do with the gas. It heats the houses by way of underfloor piping, very cosy it is indeed, low energy too & they hardly use any gas here. I'm definitely coming back here as It's an intriguing place, I fly to the capitol in the afternoon tomorrow for a party before I fly home Sunday, yes they are warming up that retro-twin-prop in anticipation right now, I'm sure ! Would I recommend it, well I have stayed with friends so it makes it very different than a short break however,the people are very warm & welcoming. They genuinely think it is normal to help you out & get you sorted, it seems instinctive in them. We all know there is a global crisis & this country has been hard hit, though I have seen a lot of trading between people here, not necessary for cash but trades & goods swapped for services rendered. More though what surprised me is their sense of humor, laughing is a massive part of the way the people get on with each other & that combined with a relaxed can do attitude is refreshing. I really like the Icelandic's I have met so when I'm planning a break it's North that i'll think of heading For now W**F ( I am trying to master loading pictures onto post, I know there's a whole thread on it but...Duhhh I'm struggling somewhat )

OK 1. Yes, I am still alive 2. I haven't felt this alive in years My god what an experience, the guy next door is the one in the you tube clip riding up the big wall on a turbocharged 1000 cc skidoo thingy. He's known as the farmer & is rightly famous for his antics on snowmobiles & Ice motocross bikes here in Iceland ( deffo my new favorite place ) Will get back to this, just off backcountry skiing now... Lorks, if I'm not dead yet, i'll be crippled for sure Later W**F

I have been here a couple of days so far, on business & staying with friends in the Northern mountains It is quite an amazingly strange but hospitable place, I do like it but it is a bit bonkers Firstly the light or lack of it, at 9 am it's pitch black, more like 4 am at home. The light slowly increases to our equivalent of dawn at around 11 am. By about 1 pm it could be said to be day light, but a long shadowy and cool light, though the skies are blue with a pink tinged edge & you can see the sun It starts to go dusk like at 3 pm & by 4 pm it's properly dark So all in all 4 hours of "day light" followed by varying degrees of darkness for 20 hours. Now you would think it would drive you crazy. Well it does effect people in strange ways, yes they are very studious however , there is definitely a thirst for adrenalin fueled activity, mainly the men & boy it's quite out there. The women just seem to ignore them " Oh that's just what they do" kind of attitude, in it's self quite refreshing. The men & women here seem pretty equal in their status & seem to share most tasks as one For example , the guy next door & his pals have full on motocross bikes equipped with metal spiked tires, they go out in the lightest hours and basically try to ride to the top of the mountain at 1500mt. This is covered in snow by the way. Oh & I go with them tomorrow, no fuss, bikes, kit all laid on from others in the community as is normal I'm told When the snow is deep enough they swap these for even faster high powered skidoos, these can actually get to the top of the mountain with two people on they tell me ( I've seen the pictures ) "If you like you can ski down" "it's normal, or snowboard, no problem" my eyes "welled" at this point This is what I like, there is a real shared community feel. I know it's a tiny country but they look out for each other, neighbors call round, kids stay over on school days, people visit each other. Yes & do they love a mobile phone & a 4x4, I've even seen a 6x6. I went on a factory visit to a stone manufacturer, made the necessary details & changes. All good, no issues ,they just listen & take it on board. We all went to lunch in a small local diner, it's an industrial & fishing port. The special is cured smoked lamb ( like smoked ham ) potato, white sauce, chopped beetroot and fruit salad in whipped cream . All served on the same plate , yes even the fruit salad bit, which was a bit strange . More like dessert and main together , delicious though slightly unusual. I nearly forgot this comes with a cumin seed poppadom like giant cracker, what else ? I passed up on the fermented shark & wad of tobacco under the top lip for afters, you have to know where to draw the line, don't you. So far so good, snow is forecast for Friday/ Saturday , so the flight ( if it goes ) in a vintage twin prop, through the fjords & mountains to Reykjavik could be "interesting" Will keep you posted W**F

Seriously though, she will need more "pots & pans" even engraved ones would be really nice I bought Mrs W**F a new washing machine but pretended it was for myself, I do let her "Borrow it" though ( at least twice a day ) Seeing as her wooden wash board has split and the likes Gives her more time to read the cookbooks & get inspiration, so it does W**F
