What's going on in Scandinavia

According to the counter on my website I got visits from people in Germany, USA, Netherlands, Vietnam, Estonia, UK, Serbia, India and Poland in the last 24 hours...so it seems to be working fine.

And @staff: I remember you recently also commented on my photo thread on Nancy, France...so this seems to be a recent problem..right?

[Balth]

I can't see them either. Your Chinese threads are also not showing.

EDIT: I can't even enter your site. It's totally dead.

[Ltrain]

I dunno I can see them.

I need to visit europe.

R@ptor,

Yeah, it is very recent. Only a couple of days ago I could see your pics, if I recall correctly. I guess we can rule out the Swedish police censorship part (it has been known to block some completely random sites for no reason) too since Bergenser cannot see the photos either.

It might be a problem with my web hosting company...they are not exactly the most reliable. So far the only people who have a problem accessing the site are the ones from Scandinavia. As I said earlier, I got visits to my homepage from all over the world today and I can access everything as well. If anybody else can't see the photos, please let me know it. I have already contacted my webhosting company about this, so hopefully it will work again soon.

Anyway, in the meantime for those that can actually see my photo here's the newest update.
Ayutthaya was the former capital of Siam and one of the world's largest cities in 1700 with an estimated population of 1,000,000 inhabitants. However it was destroyed by the Burmese in 1767 and the capital was moved to Bangkok afterwards. Today the city only has a population of approx. 55,000 but the remaining ruins are still really impressive.

Hey hey hey... that's profiling mate!

Here in jolly old Denmark we see the pics just fine, and we love your pics

Nice to see Sydney - that's one of the places I realy want to visit - sadly the damn buggers have desided to turn the year around and have winter when I can find the time to visit

When did you visit?

[staff]

Still not working here (but working when I bring my laptop to school in Copenhagen).

That's the Swedish regime making sure the people of Sweden doesn't get any funny ideas

I think it's crazy, just because the dude shares his server with Bin Laden doesn't mean anything, I mean I used to share my underwear with Kim Jong Ill and I turned out just fine!

I love this thread already!

When did you visit?

The last time I visited Australia was for two months in March/April 2005, which is IMO the best time to visit. The worst of the summer heat is gone and it's only around 25-35 degrees along the coast and 35-42 degrees in the outback instead of 50. Also the rain season in the northern parts of QLD and the NT ends in mid-March.

Seems like it is more a problem with a few specific internet providers. Nightsky, who is also from Malmo has just commented on my HK photos today and obviously he can see the photos.


Today we are paying a visit to Istanbul, the only city located on two different continents. The Suleymaniye Camii (built between 1551 and 1557) is Istanbul's largest mosque, larger than both the Hagia Sophia and the Blue Mosque and given its prominent location on top of a hill in the district of Beyazit visible from most parts of the city.

Swede found the reason why some of the people from Sweden and Norway currently can't see my photos: http://www.thelocal.se/10692/20080325/
Let's hope this will be settled soon.


After I showed you photos of structures that are several centuries old during my last 3 updates, I guess it's now time for something more modern.

Your thread is still interesting enough for me to check it every single day, even without photos in it.

[Bergenser]

I CAN SEE THE PICTURES NOW!

Nice thread.

The Palais Grand Ducal is the official home of the Duke of Luxembourg and located in the middle of Luxembourg City, the capital of the world's richest country (per capita).

Today's update takes you to Europe's green island - Ireland. The docklands area is where most of the current development takes place in the Irish capital and in the front you can see the Famine Memorial dedicated to the victims of the Great Famine of 1845 - 1852 which reduced Ireland's population by 20-25%.
