Time for another now and then diptych. To the left how the restaurant at Allévägen in Tungelsta looks this winter with lots of snow and a very icy road. To the right how it looked back in September 2007 as a few workers where giving the old building a new layer of paint. The restaurant has changed name (and owners), a few times in recent years. They have Karaoke nights here quite often, so you will never find me in there. This was once the post office and before that a Konsum grocery store. When I was a kid it was a cafe here where I used to play pinball machines with my friends. They also served delicious meatball sandwiches back then. Today it's more of a pizza place, and in the summer time the veranda will always be filled with thirsty beer lovers.

Nice photos, Steffe. And I enjoyed your commentary very much. Pinball machines, heh? So that's where you wasted your youth? ;-))
Are you sure you don't want a little more snow this winter?
Great contrast shots. I always enjoy these.

Meatball sandwiches and pizza I can go for. The karaoke they can have. Great "then and now" Steffe.
la baraque est plus blanche en automne qu'en hiver ;) cela doit venir que la neige prend toute la lumiere
Pinball machines... Now they are much more complicated. It's worrying that I remember fondly all those wasted hours and I din't even play much, just hung there with friends.
I enjoyed this look at a special place at home. Nice shot.
I hope you got the seed for the birds and maybe the squirrels.
I like the new paint much better than the old plain white paint! Not much of a karaoke fan either.
They offer take-away lunch as well. Just to reduce the risk for any close encounter of a Karaoke kind.
I think I prefer the autumn look, myself. What a drastic contrast!!
