A Night on the Town
The streets of Vienna were awash with footsteps and cosmopolitan echos. We entered a wine store – make that a wine bar. Hoighty-Toighty. Blazers and ascots. Connoisseurs in their realm.
Blair handed me a bottle of red for five euro off the shelf. I approached the counter.
“Can you open this?” I handed the bottle to the clerk.
“Yes. Will you be drinking it here?”
Hmmm. That sounds more expensive.
“No, we will drink it outside.”
“At the tables in front?”
“Um, no…At the park.”
“Very well, sir.”
Obviously we are out of our element here. Look just open the fucking wine, okay? After all, this IS Europe. We are civilized, not European, but entirely Europesque.
