For instance they burned down our neighbour city Norrköping in the 1700`s. Our king Karl XII tried to take russia in the same centurie, but as later conquers he failed. In russia they used to tell storys for their children about the evil swedes. During military service, and I did mine as late as 1999, we still had our exersices with our drill instructors shouting: "When the russians come"...and so on. I think this has given us a picture of Russia similar to yours. I`m glad you had a nice experience of "the russian bear". /MAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-32973186.post-50395291823950616752007-11-25T13:09:00.000-08:002007-11-25T13:09:00.000-08:00Yeah Russia!!!!!I'm so jealous! :) Did you have pi...Yeah Russia!!!!!I'm so jealous! :) Did you have piroshky???Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
