Reykjavík Grapevine - 07.10.2016, Blaðsíða 4

This
Issue's
Winner
Dear Reykjavík Grape-
vine,
Ég heiti Sabina.
Ég er frá Tékklandi. I’m
sorry, but I’m taking
Icelandic course these
days and I finally had the chance to use
this phrases. YAY!
Anyway, I want to thank you for doing
these papers. I’m in Iceland almost two
months, and I already read four of your
issues. It’s nice to read news and stuff in
English, When all you can hear all day
is Icelandic. I mean Icelandic is a nice
language and I really enjoy learning it,
but still i’m just a beginner. So your issues
make me really happy. And I already gave
you like on Facebook, so I can be still in
the picture.
I’m open to new music, and when you
mentioned Sin Fang in your last issue, I
immediately check him out. And I must
say, I really like his music. So thank you
for that too!
In the end, I want to wish you lots of
satisfied readers (as I am, haha). And
enjoy the autumn, even if it’s the villain
of the issue.
Best regards,
Sabina
Hey Sabina,
Thanks for the kind words! We
always like to hear from satisfied read-
ers. It makes a nice change from all the
weird racists we get commenting on
our Facebook posts, and the spammy
emails asking us to order machine
parts from China.
We’re glad you like Sin Fang! We
do too, so much so that his last record
swept the board at our annual music
awards. You’ve that to look forward
to early next year if you’re after some
more interesting Icelandic music.
Also, we at Grapevine often have
different opinions on things. For
example, the person who nominated
autumn as villain of our last issue
clearly doesn’t know the first thing
about autumn, which is easily the best
season. It’s the season of scarves and
soups, nice coats and swirling leaves,
reading books in cafés, and that enjoy-
able French movie type of melancholy.
So some of us here will be enjoying
the autumn, and we hope you do too.
Perhaps wearing the Grapevine t-shirt
you just won.
Bestu kveðjur,
Your friends at the Grapevine.
