Hi
Rahel,

Danke shön für Ihre svar(?).

I
dont know what answer is in German.

I'm sorry I haven't
learned German at school, as you know, even if I tried to learn some
words, when me and my sister visited you and Ellen, in Switzerland,
in 87, as you might remember.

I also had four German
flat-mates when I studied in Sunderland, in 2004, so I picked up a
few words there as well, but not nearly enough to write a message
with them.

But anyway.

But I've noticed, that Ellen
didn't teach you Norwegian, that your mother writes to you, in
German, even if she's Norwegian.

Or half Danish and half
Norwegian, since Ingeborg is Danish.

Why was it that your
mother didn't teach you Norwegian then?

And why didn't she
keep your fathers last-name, after she divorced him.

Isn't
that a bit strange?

I haven't of course understood that much
of what went on in Switzerland, since I only was there once and
visited you, so that's why I'm a bit curious about what has been
going on, since your mother moved back to Norway now, etc.

But
I can try to contact her on Facebook a bit later, we'll see.

You
didn't answer me what your father was working on, in the village, we
visited with you, my sister and I, when we were in Aesch, in 87.

And
how it could be, that your half-sisters name is Solveig?

Did
your father get a new Norwegian wife then, after Ellen, since Solveig
is a Norwegian name, I mean.

And what's with the pictures of
sigarettes on your Facebook-picture?

I've quit smoking some
years ago.

It was my sister, who got me to start smoking, when
we visited you and Ellen, in Basel or Aesch, in 87, as you might
remember.

Thanks again for the answer!

Erik
