Thanks a lot LN I had thought  there would have been more corrections to it  frankly I think I'm getting obsessed - well just a little !!

Sæir good I thought it was subjunctive because he is asking not making it a foregone conclusion

> Bergþórshvols
> Bergthor's Knoll (?hill)

Yes, the modern spelling 'hvoll' = 'hváll' (gen. hváls, pl. hválar).

> og spurði Njál hve ráðlegt honum þætti að hann færi utan.
> and asked Njal how he advised to him that he go abroad

"how advisable it seemed to him (to Nj.) that he (G.) go abroad."

> en eg vildi að þú sæir um búið meðan með móður minni
> and I want you and my Mother look after (?from sja? - to see)

"and/but I would like you to look after the farm in-the-meantime
(while I'm gone) and my mother with it (i.e. I'd like you to look
after my mother too). 'sæir' is the 2nd person sg. past subjunctive
of 'sjá' (past tense to agree with 'vildi' "would like" in the main
clause). 'sjá um' "to look after, take care of, see to", cf.
'umsjón', 'umsjá', 'umsjó' "care, supervision" .

> og svo hafi eg siglt til Bjarmalands.
> Permia may be thought of here - as Part of the Russian (then) Empire

"...and Bjarmaland/Permia too."(?) "...including Bjarmaland"( ?) I
don't think it's saying that Bjarmaland is part of Garðaríki.

> Where they say Haralds hins hárfagra - is not fine hair better

because they were not all necessarily - Blond were they - just a
notion I have

Haraldr Hálfdanarson is supposed to have sworn not to cut or comb his
hair till he'd conquered all the other kings of the provinces of
Norway. This took ten years, earning him the nickname Haraldr lúfa
"tangle-hair" . But once he'd made himself king of all Norway, he had
his hair cut an combed, after which it looked great, so they called
him '(inn) hárfagri' "hair-handsome" , "the one with fine looking hair."

Haraldur konungur var á veislu á Mæri að Rögnvalds jarls. Hafði hann
þá eignast land allt. Þá tók konungur þar laugar og þá lét Haraldur
konungur greiða hár sitt og þá skar Rögnvaldur jarl hár hans en áður
hafði verið óskorið og ókembt tíu vetur. Þá kölluðu þeir hann Harald
lúfu en síðan gaf Rögnvaldur honum kenningarnafn og kallaði hann
Harald hinn hárfagra og sögðu allir er sáu að það var hið mesta
sannnefni því að hann hafði hár bæði mikið og fagurt. (Haraldar saga
hárfagra).
