Winter in Bodø

[Chap]

@neph93:

I’m tempted to start making a menu already… but @Chap is the genius in the kitchen. That being said not having Lutefisk or Pinnekjøtt seems like an opportunity lost.

We need to have that, I am always open for local food

I will be removing the possibility of Smalahove immediately however.

Ah… sadly it's already after Christmas then

The maniacs in the west of Norway eat that all winter. Leave it to them I say.

@endo we need to be careful about how much booze we are allowed to import, it's one of those prohibitive countries

@endo:

A Welsh, a Franco-Croatian, an Austrian and a German meeting in a cabin somewhere in Northern Norway …

Sound like the beginning of a very bad joke,
or like a perfect weekend. 

I’m dying to know what will happen when the beverages are flowing and everyone slips into their native tongue.

But we have an excellent (if expensive), monopoly store in my town. Top drawer for beer, solid for wine…

Have a great time guys! Looking forward to the pictures. I'll likely be on a cold and rainy picket line in February.

Sounds good… but of course would like to bring some local stuff from here for you

Chap and endo will talk amongst themselves. Everyone will understand me, but I will understand no one and hadjuk will be talking to himself.

Don't worry, I am sure one of the outbuildings has one of these in it…..

[endo]

Many people around here distill their own Schnaps in the backyard… learnt (painfully) to forgo

Yes… never tried our local moonshine, never will. It is a time honoured (illegal) craft here, but despite apparently high standards there are multiple poisoning deaths nationwide every year.

Lovely to see! I look forward to embarrassing pictures and ribald stories.

Had some homemade moonshine 20 years ago on a US Car festival in Sweden
Had to crawl back to the camper, was a horrible trip ‍ .
Never again , when thinking about it I immediately feel sick , even after 20 years

From a patient today, I think some of the better stuff
