In September 2005 Ciara and I made the trip to Oslo to see Eoin McGrath before he finished his studies there. It's a really nice city but you would want a limitless credit card to live properly there. And I was complaining Ireland was expensive... We still don't pay 20 euro for 3 beers! Did you know: The population of Oslo is 500,000 people; there are 40 islands in the Oslo Fjord; there are 343 lakes within the city limits... |
