To my knowledge Norway didn't gain sovereignty before 1905. Or are you merely implying that being freed from the evil danish empire in 1814 and given to the swedes is why the norwegians are celebrating? Correct me if I'm wrong - just curious here.

Technically everyone is right. Unless you are Norwegian, I doubt anyone would really understand what Constitution Day would mean and it just sounds silly. National Day is probably the best description but for those who care:
The Constitution of Norway was signed at Eidsvoll on May 17 in the year 1814. The constitution declared Norway to be an independent kingdom in an attempt to avoid being ceded to Sweden after DenmarkโNorway's devastating defeat in the Napoleonic Wars.

You should know better Kultur. 17. mai is both independence day AND constitution day for Norway, so Kultur is by no means wrong. No, this is simply wrong. Norway did declare independence but Sweden refused. This led to a war where both parties quickly realized that they could not sustain a war and a union was negotiated. Norway accepted Swedens king as King of Norway and Sweden controlled both countries foreign policy. First in 7 June 1905 Norway finally declared independence and on 26th. of October the same year Sweden accepted this, thus the union was formally dissolved that day.
So on 17th of May Norway celebrates its constitution, an important step to become an independent state.
Fun fact: Norway and Sweden was formally at truce until some years after year 2000 until someone discovered that the final peace treaty was not formally signed.
And know, back to Pรธbel

Still waiting for my Ice Ice Baby - been going through customs in Coventry for the last 2 days by the look of things. Heading to Cornwall for the week tonight - will hopefully be waiting for me on my return.
Really looking forward to getting this.

Don't understand the tax charges at all - Ive had three from Norway recently and paid the following:
1. BOT - ยฃ35 2. Dolk - ยฃ0 3. Pobel - ยฃ25
All three have had values on the outside - the Pobel had just ยฃ50, the Dolk ยฃ350 and the BOT ยฃ90. Totally random charging.
Rant over.

As you have charges in ยฃ i assume your UK based? I thought, and i've spoken to UK customs and they said the same, that if your purchasing something from the EU to the UK there is no charges at all?
The following is taken directly from here : www.hmrc.gov.uk/customs/post/buying.htm
All other goods If you're ordering or sending purchased goods (other than alcohol and tobacco) to the UK from another EU country then it's just like shopping in the UK: there is no Customs Duty payable there is no import VAT payable, unless you're ordering or sending purchased goods from one of the EU 'Special Territories' and if the value of the goods is ยฃ15 or more, however from 1 April 2012 all merchandise sent to the UK from the Channel Islands is subject to VAT - see below there is no Excise Duty to pay
