The clip where Ulla talks about the dream has been widely circulated and was published by the initiative Elderly contact, which works to break the loneliness among the elderly. During a live broadcast on News Day, Ulla was faced with his idol directly via video calls – and there came the long -awaited invitation from Per Skoglund.
“One hundred percent, it’s obvious that we should do it,” he said, promising to invite Ulla to lunch.
He offered to pick up Ulla around lunchtime and take her to best friend Jonas Svensson’s restaurant, where the chef promised to open only to her.
“It sounds wonderful,” Ulla replied, and accepted the invitation.
“I’m blushing”
Ulla says she chose Per Skoglund because he seems warm and caring, not least when he talks about coaches, horses and trot. She also appreciates that they both have a strong interest in food
– Firstly, because he is so nice and he talks so well about those who are in the trot. I think he is a good person.
– It’s so cozy when he eats. And so he likes to cook himself and I think so too, she continues.
When Per Skoglund himself is connected to the conversation, he is noticeably moved by Ulla’s words:
– I blush now that Ulla tells us what she thinks about me. I love you my heart friend!
The wish is realized
In the clip that elderly contact posted on Instagram, Ulla first told me that she doubted that the dream of a dinner with Per Skoglund could hit.
“It’s not possible, such a famous person … it would be too expensive,” she said.
But now it is clear that Per Skoglund plans to pick up Ulla after the TV broadcast in News Morning and then drive her to the restaurant.
“Around the 12-stroke I pick you up, then you will be ready,” he said with a smile.
Thus, the 100-year-old’s desire is close to being realized, and she seems to look forward to an unforgettable lunch.
