That is more difficult then it sounds as our english TV wont pick up the swedish network without a swedish VCR (which we do have but is currently not working). We had also decided to spring clean the flat and take up all the (well over due) xmas decoration up into the attic. Luckily Paul is such a genies and he managed to fix the video with an hour to spare. Mum and Ulf were fashionable late so we even had time to get dressed up.
Luckily Mina helped otherwise we would never have finished in time....
We started off in Cheers. A kind of American styled bar with friendly staff and even friendlier drink prices Norrlands Guld or Jinx cider 25kr!! that is cheep for Sweden. A bit empty but good atmosphere
and a very nice burger....
Next stop - the bowling ally!
This was defiantly the hangout for kids under 18 but we fitted right in, well so I thought (Paul had to remind me that I looked like the embarrassing older woman who refuse to grow up when I was dancing along to Black eyed pea's 'I gotta feeling').
Best of 3 and I won!
Once outside, we did a great summersault - its amazing how 'cushioned' you feel once you've had a few beers inside you. Well it was very slippery, the streets are like an ice rink with snow on top, not safe! So we headed back to Cheers. A bit more crowded this time (the youth just above legal swedish drinking age) and our neighbor (a moody goth) who I waved to when she was sitting all alone being miserable when her friends had abandoned her (but she pretended not to see me). And I got chatted up too. Interrupted actually ,when having a conversation with my husband, by a bloke who thought I looked like Gry Forsell (is that a complement by the way?) who is really fit he assured me.
One last drink, one for the road - a rose tequila (going down memory lane....)
