As the Swedish guy here. I can post som really useless information about IKEA

IKEA stands for

Ingvar The Founders First Name
Kamprad The Founders last Name
Elmtaryd The village where the Founder grew up
Agunnaryd This is a hard one to translate...... almost like yours "County" where the village are located

Maybe good to know if you end up in the chair in the "Who wants to be a millionair"

Thanks

As the second Swedish guy here (Lindahl) I have no information to provide but can forward the above information from our first Swedish guy to my German wife so that she knows IKEA stands for something of no importance.

Cold, rainy, and muddy here too. I keep waiting for Dracula to come walking out of the woods. It won't be long until Arrowheadfred jumps on here and taunts us with "Florida!".

Pretty warm here today 22 deg, 14 deg with the windchill. Thw wind is out of the south making it really damp. We're used to a dry cold.
