Glad you are doing okay Thor. Thanks so much for another great session. I really appreciate your having scheduled it for Saturday. I know that isn't everyone's preference, so I appreciate the flexibility. Great conversation. everyone. I will have to look into some of the books everyone was showing off.

I will implement some self-imposed regulations for the next meeting: I will not open a beer untill 5 PM (the "party" starts at 6 PM, three hours prior to our meeting, with a different Zoom chat). I will drink slower. I will have a max limit of 6 strong beers. I will stop drinking at 11/11.30 and move to water for the remainder of the time. I will also continue hunting for this elusive coconut water. Come to think of it, I might have seen it in the store -- but only in a can, intended for cooking, not in a bottle or anything.
Again, sorry for causing unnecessary worry, for not being there to let Graham and Thomas back in, and for any other mishap there might have been.
On a more positive note, I loved Onya's initial set-up of palm trees and tiki drinks. You were too far away from the microphone, but you get the prize for the best backdrop.

It was my second rum cocktail of the season, plus we just got a set of vintage Arthur Umanoff bar stools for our vintage Arthur Umanoff bar, so I got a little carried away!
Hope you are feeling better!
Perhaps next time you could give us a little tour round the bar?

Onya had a Rum Barrell, a Stolen Idol, and a Jet Pilot.
Ms. Birri had a Rum Barrell, Three Dots and a Dash, Mai Tai, and Planter's Punch.
A splendid time was had by all!
Sounds like a great time. Does the place have a website?

Very authentic drinks, many which are also on the Mai-Kai menu!

I could quite happily work my way through that menu!

And on a Monday even?!? No, seriously, sounds like a blast, Onya.
Summer weather washed over Norway this weekend (temps close to 30C yesterday), and will continue for some time. Spent Saturday afternoon, evening and night on a roof terrace down by the pier (a friend owns an apartment in the building). Another friend brought champagne. There was also beer and wine consumed, untill I stumbled home at 3 in the morning. Silly amounts of people out and about after the lockdown was eased up a bit last week.
Here's a pic I took at dusk (the bear is my friend's upcoming gift to his niece, but we thought it provided a nice statement):

Sounds like fun!
Today is a holiday, Memorial Day, in the US, so Sunday night was like Saturday night.

Thor, what's your opinion on alcohol-free or low alcohol beer?
