This is about a conversation that took place in Swedish, hence is it hard to write about in English. We've tried to make a translation further down.
Frun till sin man: -Har du sett, trillingar!
Mannen tittar ner i vagnen, konstaterar faktum och tittar sedan på mig.
Mannen svarar sin fru: -Det kunde man väl räkna ut. Se på honom - så smal! Han är ju helt slut!
Han gör en paus och brister ut i ett härligt leende för att bekräfta sin ironi, och säger till mig: -Bra jobbat!
English translation:
Conversation around our big triplet pram "Potemkin, the pansar cruiser", outside the local mini-mart, where I and all the kids had gone to buy Saturday candy. The wife to her husband: "Have you seen, triplets!" The husband looks down into the pram, notice the fact and looks at me. The husband responds to his wife: "You could figure it out - Look at him - so skinny! He is totally worn out!" He pauses and a big smile breaks out in his face to confirm his irony, and tells me: "Well done!"
