@Fafnir Hi there,
Greetings, Isn’t Fenrir a wolf, son of loki according to Norse Paganism?

Yep, that's right. Fenrisúlfr is the son of Loki, killer of Odin and father of wolves. Frænir, Fafnir as I've written it for tagging convienence, is also a Norse saga character being the son of the dwarf king Hreiðmarr who becomes cursed by Andvari's magic ring Andvaranaut and a curse he put on Gold stolen by Loki. Turned into a dragon by the curse, Fafnir is slain by the hero Sigurd.

Onboard KNM Utsira, one of six Ula class submarines in service with the Royal Norwegian Navy. The Ulas, also known as Type 210, are a heavily modified Type 209 submarine, so modified it's considered a one-off class of its own. The Ula class submarines are scheduled to be replaced within the next five years by a joint German-Norwegian Type 212 development down as Type 212CD/NG.

Excellent pics, but in future would you be kind enough to label them as well?

Label how? What the equipment is? I generally just give an overview of what's happening in short detail unless it's something special, then I'll go into much greater detail. I occasionally profile certain pieces of equipment or events if I have a good picture set. I'll mostly just post pictures though, but if you want an example of what I can do when I feel motivated, you'll want to check out a few other forums where I'm (or rather was) more active. When I'm feeling it I can write some of the best stuff you'll see.

Norwegians eat more pizza per capita then any other nation. It's in our blood.
