Today, a bomb like thingy was spotted under a car entering the site of the US embassy in Oslo@Norway (which is fairly close to the castle of our king). Result: Full alert, widespread evacuation. Enter bomb experts who found the thingy to be a bomb lookalike, recently used for practice at the embassy. They'd forgot to remove it afterwards.

Well, sh*t happens, we did get a test of our crisis handling routines which we needed and the embassy was satisfied with the response. And from where I am at the moment (500 km from Oslo) it was kind of funny. Afterwards.

pibbur who as it happens wonders what would happen if this happened in Denmark
