Tales from the waterside... a bit of this and a bit of that, and the view from my kitchen window

Yesterday was the day. After a weekend of stuffing boxes and finding yet more things to stuff in boxes yesterday was the day the lorry came to pick up life in Kallhäll and dump it all down in the city.
So now there's just the unpacking to do. My furniture is in and the bed is back in one piece and it would all look quite normal were it not for a sea of boxes...
Unpacking - looks like that's a game I'll be playng for a few weeks to come.
A bit over a week ago now I was back in the hospital. My eyesight was improving but I was getting a lot of 'floaters'... Things floating in my field of vision, and out to the right.. Well there wasn't anything out to the right. I could think of a number of plausible reasons, but one of them was that my retina wasn't as fast as it should be. so, rather than wait for my next checkup I took me off to the hospital to sit in the queue.
He didn't exactly suck through his teeth, but after a good look round the doctor said there was fluid under the retina at the edge, and please come back on monday so the surgeon can check it over...
So for two days I was really walking on egg-shells and somewhat morose - but monday morning bright and early I was sat outside the doctors office.
and the verdict was that there was no fluid.. And seeing nothing out to the right is OK because they used lasers to close the holes, and that causes local damage.. which should improve a bit with time - but not much I reckon.
Still, all in all, I prefer my second second opinion.
As someone that's recently bought a flat here in the City of Stockholm I was interested to find an article on the world's most expensive property.. a flat in London selling for a mere £115 million.
Or just down the road and a little cheaper - £20 million for a flat at One Hyde Park? At £6000/sq. foot that works out at a tad over 825 000 kr/kvm.
Cheap at half the price?
I think I got a bargain :-)
