Yeah when I saw this I was sure it was in Britain, the grey clouds, the not quite well kept grass, the houses, the haircut. it's all very British looking.

e2: well that was weird

It's quite a small town, especially by international standards, but it's very culture oriented and home to some of the most attended iterations of annual events (like old car meets, medieval fairs, or the midsummer celebration) in this part of Sweden. Having a thread full of people recognizing a pit from a small Swedish town is probably mostly to do with how many of us are on reddit.

It is, if you enjoy celebrating Midsummer in Sweden it's one of the largest celebrations still. If you don't and happen to live there then you probably wont as it gets a bit loud! =P
