Catastrophes, wars, terrorism, ecological disasters, deadly diseases, poverty .... The list of tragedies - both personal and public - is endless. Every day and hour media, politicians, experts - and charlatans - bring us a never ending barrage of bad things. No wonder that many people feel depressed and weary. This blog tries - in a modest and personal way - to contribute to a more balanced view. After all, there is so much to appreciate and enjoy in life ...

Dutch cargo ship Isis with problems in Øresund?
The Dutch cargo ship Isis (111 x 14m, 3990 dwt) appears to have some problem right now. The ship, which is supposed to be on its way from Swedish Gävle to Nador Marocco, was going northwards in the Sound, but just after Helsingborg it turned around and stopped. When I am writing this, the Isis still lies anchored outside of Hittarp (waiting for a tugboat?).
PS ( at 7 PM)
After lying still for about 5 hours, the Isis turned around a few minutes ago and is now continuing northwards in the Sound. If it was a technical problem, which is likely, the crew apparently was able to fix it. Hopefully the Isis will have a safe journey to Nador Marocco!
