That’s some balls explaining Finland to me. The biggest reason we have everything so swell is we developed highly functioning education and healthcare, and social safety nets that are free for all in the sixties and seventies. With tax money.

    Obviously I’m not explaining Finland to you. I‘ve spent one day in Finland and I don’t really know much about it.

    I will say one thing about the Finns, they are nice enough but can come across as quite strange. And I don’t get why a lot of the men have like really croaky voices, what the hell is that about?

      Think he’s just making sure your fixation with the yanks doesn’t mean you haven’t a scooby what’s going on where it actually matters, ie. where you live, mate!

        Would like to hear Hannu’s sexy gruff Finn voice layered over his mixes. Could see his listen count and likes on Soundcloud skyrocket.

        We ate here in Helsinki

        Probably one of the best restaurants I’ve ever been to.

        Half-way through the meal the waiter marches over and gruffly states, without a hint of a smile:

        ”you are having a good time”

        Not a question.

          C_J lol! Think Hanners employs the same bloke to whisper in the ears of revellers at his gigs too.

            Pared back Scandi food served in a horribly pretentious restaurant that has absolutely zero atmosphere.

            Not for me thanks.

              Smallman1 Yeah, stick to ‘North China’ (which serves third generation southern Chinese food) or ‘Sea Containers’.

                I’m all about Le Manoir nowadays Dave.

                Nobody knows the UK restaurant scene like me.

                Grant knows his stuff too tbf.

                  Couple of cheese swervers, if you know what I mean.

                    C_J no it doesn’t. It’s been exactly the opposite. Nothing can be disrupted if one company has bought all of theIr competition and turned their products into just another brand. InBev is the perfect example.

                        Homegrove lol I totally agree with you, however I do seem to recall you explaining the American political landscape to me on one or two occasions 🤗.

                            zackster Zack, take 2 seconds to google the 5 year ANHEUSER-BUSCH INBEV share price.

                            They are an analogue company is a digital world. A dinosaur.

                                C_J yet they dictate the components used in most all mico brews. Try to find wheat that that they dont own and genetically modify to retain patent rights over.

                                And I think that the recent events in the world have proven that the “market” is a total joke. The us markets have all rebounded despite unemployment being at an all time high and a global pandemic still fully underway.
