October is *the* time for treasure hunting in Finland โ just pick up a basket and head to the nearest forest. One of the late mushroom varieties is the funnel chantarelle. Its mild and autumnal aroma complements many dishes, from pasta to meatballs ๐

Smith was a six-time Olivier nominee and was the recipient of the 2010 Special Award.

"I feel more exhausted than ever in my life. This marathon is really at the edge for us wheelchair racers, especially the 5km cobblestone section up the hill to the Champs-Elysees. I have never ever had that experience. I really thought I was going to die."

Finns are more extroverted than their reputation suggests, says Kishore, who moved to Finland from India. "We didnโt hesitate to ask for help and that way we got a very good response, a very warm response in fact." ๐

Farage and Tommy Robson only started condemning the violence after they realised they were in deep shit. Robinson incited the riots from his 5 Star Hotel in Cyprus and now the full force of the law will be used to bring him and Farage to justice. They are domestic terrorists.
