Elizabeth from Norway just informed me that my new copy of Ladeboken is enroute. It was 450 Norweigan Kroner = 76.5 USD.

I should have bought it last month when the exchange rate was 17% better.

I have the book in hand.

It is very good.

Is there any shortage of doctors in the EU? Country doctor to live out in elg territory??

Lawndart.
I guess as a doctor, you could choose wherever you wanted to live and work on the Norwegian and Swedish countryside ( after a crash course in the native language )

Today meeting foreign doctors in the Norwegian rural comunites are more than common.
Germans, Dutch, Asians...you find them everywhere.

And as the local doctor, you are a part of the local VIP society, and would most sertanly be invited to participate on as much hunting as you could take on

Even if we have gun regulations, owning arms in Norway and Sweden as a hunter / competition shooter, is not that bad after all.
And handloaders and stuff for handloading are all over the place.
There is a lack of American powders though, but Norma and Viithavouri is found in every little sporting goods shop
