IKEA ?And I was thinking that our Sven came from a specialty shop like Cartier! Didn't we, shipmates? You mean I could have my own "SVEN" ? (running to the car to drive to Ikea in Pittsburgh to see!) Mb

I know what to do. I know what to do?Get in car and drive to Pittsburg? working back...... "Registered is best, first class and Air Mail (for those pesky international packages) second preferable." OK transport level specification understood. "These people keep him for one week and send him on, having taken pictures of themselves with the moose, which should then be posted up on the board (you can find some examples of piccies on the 'Wanna Know More?' thread on the old All Saints Board." Interaction protocol is identified. I'm beginning to catch on...... "If you want him, you send me your address by email." Aha! Here it comes. BTW, how about a "Story of Sven the Moose" with FAQ, goings, comings, and picture-archive as a ship feature, just like the "Fruitcake Zone" and "Gadgets for God"?

Yes, Elizabeth, He's quite the moose, isn't he? I think a permanent Sven page is absolutely perfect! He's an international STAR for heaven's sake and more than deserves it! I see we now have more members of the A.O.S.O.S. now, don't we, girls? Mb A.O.S.O.S. North American Chapter

that soon? wow, i guess so. truthfully towards the end of summer would be better... i thought of combining his vist with the opertunity to take my daughter to some of those things that normally you don't go to unless you are showing visitors around (specifically i had the statue of liberty in mind... been meaning to take her for several years now)... but i'm sure we'll work something out.

Oh well, doesn't sound like Sven is going to make the "Wedding of the Millenium" as someone in the Cafe (Paul Vickery?) called it.

Any pics of Sven yet, Elizabeth?Moose business: I've compiled a revised list of people who should be getting the Moose on North American continent... How about we do it like this? George in Montreal Siegfried (CA) RuthW (CA) and then back to the other side to Nicolemrw (NY) JP (NY) before coming back onto this side of the Atlantic... ? Comments, my people? By the way, anyone else want Sven in the States or Canada (of South America for that matter)? Speak now or forever hold you peace.

Sven at the Cottage Bar for lunch with Jeff and me. Sven perused the wine menu, but I stuck with water and Jeff had Guinness.

Sven with my niece Jenny. Sven really liked her t-shirt, but alas, they don't come in his size.

As of 5 p.m. today, George had not yet received Sven. However, we are not concerned. We know that Canada Post can take, at times, four days to deliver a letter to the next block.While we wait, we are trying to find someone to translate our national anthem "O Canada" into Moosish, as it is one of the less challenging requirements for citizenship in what, sorry Scandanavians, might just be his country of origin. We are optimistic that his arrival this week will allow us to take him on a field trip to the Granby Zoo planned for next Monday where, if we are lucky, he might meet some relatives. A search of the canons of the Diocese of Montreal has come up blank. We are unable to determine if moose can receive communion!

Well, Sven has certainly been baptised, George, if that's any help.
