According to the report, the conversation between Putin, Støre, and Stubb did not go well, with Putin spending most of the time interrupting the other two and ranting about history and Russian "security concerns" while slamming the door on any potential ceasefire.

I have a relative in Norway who is due a baby soon. I'm wondering if there is a ready made meal (fresh or frozen) delivery service that I could use to gift them some meals to save them from cooking? I've seen the services that deliver meals directly from restaurants (like Wolt and dinehome) but where they are located (just outside Drammen) there isn't much choice, so looking for other options.
I've seen Spisriktig but the reviews are very mixed......wondering if anyone has a better suggestion? Thanks!

I’ve been trying to buy things on Finn recently and every time I offer to pay cash they shut down the conversation or stop replying. Im not Norwegian and don’t have vips so bank transfers can take several hours maybe even days to process so it would be the easiest for everyone. Sure there are some scams out there but in the uk most gumtree/marketplace purchases would be in cash for convenience even though bank transfers are basically immediate. I know the country is pretty much cashless already but there are major pitfalls to this with wifi connectivity/electricity requirements and after what happened in Spain and Portugal a couple of years ago with the blackouts it showed a physical currency has value (pun intended). Not to mention the % the banks take for each transaction which over time essentially removes money from circulation.
So why won’t you take my money?

Anyone who can help me out? Im looking for stainless steel panels for interior wall coverings, this is for a hospitality interior. Im searching online and cant seem to find anything ... Anyone can point me in the right direction?
Thanks

Hi, im planning an aurora hunt in Tromso, but I honestly have no idea how am I supposed to do it, if forecast shows clouds and rain for the most of the month, so here's my question. Is it even possible to see the aurora if there are clouds and rain? I heard very mixed opinions, some say, in season it's always at least faintly visible no matter the weather, some say you need to be really lucky to see anything. I know the usual "it doesn't look like in photos", and I also know chance to see it should be higher in Tromso since it's further north, so pls help. How is the aurora visibility in season, generally in Norway, maybe in Tromso if someone lives or travells there

Plz help this anxious person. Thank you.

I was with my wife in a cosy little restaurant in Alicante, Spain (where they use Euros of course) recently, on a trip to buy a modest holiday home. We were naturally talking about finances, in English, quietly (but just loud enough to hear if you trained your ear) about how she could move “2 million” to a certain account, and how “2 million” from my savings can be used, and how an apartment worth “3 million” could be bought outright, or with a mortgage of “a million” etc etc.

It occurred to me after the conversation that the woman next to us was looking at us a bit curiously. Then it occurred to me that she heard us casually talk about our millions but of course had no idea we were talking about Norwegian Kroner, not Euros or Pounds.

I do wonder what she was thinking of us!

Edit: The number of people missing the point is alarming. It’s about the misunderstanding about the 10x number of Kroner compared to Euros, and how “millions” sounds crazy to most Europeans. It’s not about currently conversion, and certainly not about bragging (it’s nothing to brag about anyway. So what if some people can buy a holiday house? Thousands do, or buy a fancy house in Norway. We have a modest house, so can afford a small holiday house or cabin).
