– It is frykteleg sad, I think forferdeleg much on Gerd Kjellaug and Harald who has built up the hotel and have it as their life’s work. It is clear that it does not drift here through the summer, and I’ve not managed to think ahead. It is almost uverkeleg.

the Hotel has been Sold say storstove tell Pound. He has good faith that the hotel will be built up again.

– Yes, it I think. We need to have hotels in Willow, and this is sad for the whole community. The last time there has been enough negative things that have happened in the Willows, so this is two nights we could not.

Pound was weight early notice of the fire, and was down by branntomta in morgontimane. He explains that being with others is good.

– I had hardly managed to sleep though I tried on it, so it gets to be in team with others, it is good to talk and to get thoughts slightly away.
