Your Letters
This
Issue's
Winners
Dear Grapevine,
Thank you for your funny, gracious
and smart Twitter coverage of Ice-
land's triumph at the Euro Cup. I am
incredibly proud of the team's (and
country's) success, but I am deeply
impressed by the Grapevine's ability
to see the best in a situation and
to be grateful. That shows a purity
of spirit I will strive to cultivate in
myself.
Thanks for a great tournament so
far, and I am looking forward to
cheering on Wales with you!
Sincerely,
Anita Dey
PS - My husband and I were the
tourists whose car was hit by a
port-a-potty in June 2013. Our travel
agent said that the story made the
Grapevine.
Dear Anita,
No, thank YOU! We’re pretty damn
proud of the team, and rest assured
that most Icelanders are as well—it
takes more than one loss against a
bunch of baguette-crunchers to get
us down.
We cheered our hardest for Wales,
but to no avail (sorry, Wales). We also
tried our hardest to find the story
about your car being hit by a port-a-
potty, but also to no avail. Too bad,
because that sounds hilarious (unless
you were gravely injured, in which
case… sorry).
We look forward to your support
again when we compete in (and win!)
the 2018 World Cup.
Sincerely,
The Reykjavík Grapevine
