And So We Praised The Lordi

Young and old, thirsty and curious gathered together last night to meet the monsters. There were over 90,000 of us poor souls.


At the same time, around Mannerheimintie by Vanha Ylioppilastalo, there was another monster and his party bus. Danny, we know you sport a rubber face just like our Eurovision Lordi, why don't ya come on out.




In the husky blue night of Hel, the biggest winners were the beer sellers.



Oh, all that tender joy of urine streams gliding on the streets of Hel.



Jesus tried to compete with our newest Lordi in the form of a party bus.

So How Safe Is Finland Exactly?

This wise map was published after the horrors took place in London underground.

The land of the pale and the boring is also the least corrupted land on Earth. They also claim Hel to be one of the safest cities in the world.

Hel - the art of uneventfulness.

The Incredibly Fantaaabulous First of May

There it was, the human sea and the heavenly sun, perfect with picnic tables and popping corks.

And there they were, the vast bins for sparkling wine bottle recycling. Child labour was boldly used with the lure of 'You get us 20 bottles and we give you a movie ticket'.

It worked. 20 000 bottles got recycled, and this was only the sparkling wine department. We Finns are so pro with our alcohol. All hail Wappu, the First of May!
