Greetings Turnips!
 
A delayed Turnip.... but better a late Turnip than no Turnip at all.
 
If your Christmas/New Year was truly Swedish you should still be constipated from the excess of meat and potatoes and nursing third degree burns from the anarchic street fireworks as Sven and Svea let down their hair between five to and ten past midnight on New Years Eve.
 
Throw out the Julbock, Kalle Anka and Glögg, bring on the Haggis, ‘neeps and tatties.......
 
Let The Turnip be the first to wish you a very happy Burns night!..... or maybe Valentine’s Day.....
Svenska Hörnan

Things we still giggle at........
Den Nakna Kocken
 
This really isn’t funny.
 
Jamie Oliver is a hero who deserves to be knighted - we love him....
 
.....but the king of pukka tucker has his knockers and there are some that must take more than a little pleasure in knowing that Sweden tunes in to The Naked Kock.
