Two beers please #6

by

Turku is the first city you reach at the southwestern corner of Finland. You know there's going to be a problem when all the roadsigns and street names are in two languages. OK, OK, so there's a large Swedish speaking minority on the west side of the country. But two thirsty Brits out on the lash don't need complications.

Me and my boss found the nearest bar to our downtown hotel. Ever the showoff, I went up to order some beers.

"Kaksi olutta, kiitos" I said politely.

"Två öl?" the bartender queried pointedly.

"Fù queue!" I said. He understood that.
