Cheers for Friday

Mrs Lifecruiser Cheers

In Swedish: Skål för Fredag!

It’s foggy outside this evening… and obviously even here on the inside… *lol*.

We decided to cheer for the fact that it’s Friday. Seems blurry to you? It is!

Swedes do have problems with the alcohol - it’s too expensive! We pay bloody high taxes, so no wonder that we love to shop tax-free…

We can only buy alcohol in special stores, called Systembolaget. Not in ordinary stores. Well, sort of, very light beers, but not wine or anything else.

Have a toast with us! What can we offer you to drink? Champagne? Campari? Martini? Whiskey? Mixed drink with a colored umbrella?

C H E E R S. . .

Oh, and you better hurry up with your orders while we still are able to mix your drinks properly - if you don’t like surprises…

    That’s just fine. Although I don’t like to admit it the Irish have some MacBean blood running through their veins.
