Finnish article about me

I was interviewed into a local free newspaper called Helsingin Uutiset (News of Helsinki). The story was on today's paper. You can find it from my website. Unfortunately it is in Finnish. I will try to translate it as soon as I can. The teasers at the frontpage and next to the content are translated already. :winks:

(Let me know if there are some typing errors. I translated the text very quickly...)

That's great news Yonna & I love the picture of you in front of your smurf cabinets. I don't think I've ever seen a picture of you before so know I know who I'm 'talking' to :)

Maybe people in Finland will start or re-start collecting smurfs after reading the article. Let's hope so :D

This article was also published in two other newspapers, Vantaan Sanomat and Länsiväylä. Now the story is out everywhere around the capital city area. So about 1/5 of Finns have seen the article. There are over million people living at this area. :razz:

Well done Yonna.

One can't help but feel we are like the Smurf version of the united nations, representing the smurfs to our respective regions. Its a pitty Imps dont feed us inside information and pay us in small blue bodies (the only really universal medium of exchange within our UN). :cool:

That looks like a great article, though I don't understand anything. :) :D :-D
It seems like very many finnish people have read it, so you are now a well-known collector! :D
