Hyvaa Paivaa
I have recently returned from Finland, one of the cleanest countries in the world. Whilst in Helsinki, myself and my wife saw one piece of litter (see picture - it's below the traffic light on the left) It was gone a few minutes later.
We flew up to Ivalo for a few days. As the aircraft was coming to land we realised the music they were playing to stop the passengers screaming was Phil Cunningham. Everyone seemed very calm and contented.
A few years ago I went to Helsinki to learn to fly at night. Owing to the weather and various restrictions it looked as if I would not finish the course in time. The instructor managed to get all the international arrivals re-routed on to a different runway at Helsinki International Airport, so that I could fly some circuits in a light aircraft at a nearby airport. I don't think they would entertain that idea at Heathrow Airport.
