    • 2021 December 6, Kristian Alm, “Coop satsar på framtiden”, in Norra Halland[1]:
      Så om inget går snett med den planerade vårdcentralen i gamla kaféet så kommer Kungs Frilles torg bli ett riktigt centrum för Frillesås, med fiskbil på torget och Coop där man kan handla, spela, hämta post och träffa bekanta.
      So if nothing goes wrong with the planned health center in the old café, Kungs Frilles square will become a real town centre for Frillesås, with a fish truck on the square and a Coop where you can shop, bet, collect mail and meet acquaintances.
