I think that was a rule to preserve the adults' sanity. 20 sleeps until I next board a plane but I will lose count 10 times between now and then. <br />Hope everything is going to plan.Paulinehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15276284964859313257noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6784891745623390957.post-42537108760417424462010-10-25T19:21:38.906+01:002010-10-25T19:21:38.906+01:00Come on.

I think it sounds nice! The Swedish word for sleep does not have a plural form. But we might use "nights" instead of "days" even if probably less common.DawnTreaderhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13956409908791716009noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6784891745623390957.post-89647815303497682072010-10-25T17:47:27.496+01:002010-10-25T17:47:27.496+01:00Wishing you a safe journey over to here.
