That’s okay that unless it’s gruelling back breaking work, fair play pal, do you have to pay to fish the river, any the decent salmon rivers here are either daft money or you can’t get on unless you know right folk, or willing to  go night walking ?

Yes what is an ok pay relative to ordinary Swedish salorys, I just bought an expensive house (for the area) for ~60000£. Most jobs are adapted to modern standards and are subject to union regulations. For fishing you just pay the local fee.

I was born in to this climate in october, most times of the year I can find hunting and fishing opponunitys even in the coldest months.

What was his name off here went over to do the slaughterhouse job. Loads of money in the Nordics mate ;)

Mate of mine worked in Norway for 5 years shoveling snow off house roofs (obviously not in the summer lol). 5years and he earned a full pension, at last value worth 40k€ a year.
