New best friend

Waiting for the bus to Vienna, I had a 45 minute wait in Bratislava station. I migrated to the bar. My only Slovak being 'dve pivá prosím' (two beers please), I needed a friend for 45 minutes. I sat opposite a guy whose other friend was leaving. My new best friend was disconsolate.

Seeing my opportunity I pointed to his half-finished beer, saying "Pivá?" He said something Slovaky, "áno prosím", but I just took his nod as my cue. Expertly, I ordered two beers at the bar.

After several beers, I moved us on to borovička - yeeha!. Time flew!
