Remember, remember!
The fifth of November,
The Gunpowder treason and plot;
I know of no reason
Why the Gunpowder treason
Should ever be forgot!
I do not intend to weigh in on the interpretation of this old English verse, which brings the relationship between Catholics and Protestants to a head. I must admit, however, that I have entirely different reasons for remembering this particular date.
It just so happens to be my birthday!

I don’t really have any plans to celebrate, other than the fact that—for once—I’m going to watch a handball match this evening. It’s a European Championship qualifier, and Sweden is facing Greece here in Växjö. Actually, "for once" is a massive understatement; come to think of it, I’ve never even been to a handball match before.
As for the rest, I suppose I’ll just see what happens. Unfortunately, before that, I have to attend a meeting I’m not looking forward to at all. We’ll see what comes of it. I can reveal—without saying anything more—that the stakes are quite high.
