Drinks

23.11.2007 20:15 I couldn’t help but reflecting how cheap things are here. I was in Stockholm last weekend and paid the equivalent of around 45 euros for 4 drinks incl tip (2 strawberry daiquiris, one vodka drink and one beer). This evening we paid 7 euros for 3 drinks (1 gin&tonic, 2 beers) also incl tip. So ok, the drinks in Stockholm were more fancy, but still. The difference is not corresponding to the income levels. But I happen to know that everybody, absolutely everybody, in Sweden cheat on their taxes because the tax percentages are far too high. You wonder why? Of course it is to be able to afford the drinks…
