All you April fools...

Today is April Fool's Day.  A day where, all over the world, people are subject to practical jokes and hoaxes - albeit usually all good natured.

Fancy getting your hand on a £25 voucher for our Scandinavian Kitchen web-shop?  Well, well, all you have to do to be in with a chance of winning is find out which ones of the following statements are April Fools - and which are true.

  1. Sweden is the 3rd largest EU country in land area, after France and Spain
  2. Finland has won the Eurovision Song contest 9 times in all, most recently with a song called "Ruislaari, ohralaari, kauralaari"
  3. NOKIA is from Finland.
  4. A high-rise building in Norwegian is called 'Hytte-paa-hytte-paa-hytte' (literally, hut-on-hut-on-hut)
  5. Every year, the World Sauna Championship takes place in Finland
  6. Whigfield has received the 'Order of the Elephant by the Queen of Denmark (highest order given by The Queen), for her services to music
  7. Swedish people have the longest life expectancy in Europe
  8. You can only by wine and strong from special alcohol outlets in Norway and Sweden, no other shops.
  9. Norway is set to join the EU in 2019
  10. There is a town in Denmark called Middelfart

Pop an e-mail iloveherring@scandikitchen.co.uk over to us with which ones of the above are FALSE - and we'll enter you into the draw for the voucher for our on line shop.  By end of today, please (1st April).

Usual competition rules apply:  no employees of SK and SKt can take part, no cash alternative, only valid on-line (not in cafe), the judge's decision is final.  And so on.  Winner will be notified by pigeon - or maybe e-mail, if the pigeon is tired.

You can visit the online Scandinavian food shop - stocking food products from Sweden, Denmark, Norway and Finland, here: TAKE ME TO THE SHOP  (orders over £50 are carriage free)
