Drinking with Friends


Finally! A picture of a typical end of the day drinks! In the picture is Alan, Josef’s very good friend in the village. Alan makes his living by building old cars and bikes on commission for people. He is always doing something in his workshops. Josef tells me that in his younger days, Alan biked from Czech Republic to France and back again on one of those old bikes with the huge tires. It would have been a feat that I’d like to have witnessed! Alan knows many different languages like French, Russian and German. Unfortunately, his English is a bit lacking. He knows a lot of English words, though. And when he does speak, he makes sure that his grammar is correct.

The only other thing to say about Alan is when he’s drinking at his house, beware. He will make sure that you go home well into your cups!
