Different priorities

While having a caffelatte (yes, a real one! They used Illy Italian coffee!) in a café downtown the other day, I saw in The Mongol Messenger that the new Mongolian ambassador to Qatar had just presented his credentials. Sweden closed its embassy in Luxembourg recently and will close the one in Belgium soon. Mongolia of course has an embassy in Belgium.

The Mongol Messenger is one of two newspapers published in English here. The other one is the UB Post, check out the web site here: UB Post. Unfortunately the Mongol Messenger site isn't available at present.

Outdoors the temperature dropped from 12 degrees to -1 during the afternoon, and there is now a storm. I think it will start snowing soon. On May 15 the heating will inexorably be turned off, so I'm hoping that tomorrow will be the last cold day.

  1. Idag har vi haft 24 grader varmt här. Jag och ett par gamla chefskollegor satt ute vid en restaurang vid universitetshuset på kvällen och var tvungen att sitta i skuggan./Inger
