There's a Brazilian guy here at work who is leaving today to go back to his family in Finland. So, we went out for a few drinks last night to see him off. As always, things began in a civilised fashion with nice Asian food at Pan Asia in Hackesher Markt. Next stop was Ambulance on Oranien strasse for shooters, cocktails, beers etc afterwhich we moved on to a fantastic, authentic little Brazilian bar where Luiz knows all the staff. Three chaps were sat in the corner playing the most wonderful samba music, whilst we supped on extremely strong South American concontions made with sugar cane alcohol... When I finally got into my bed in the wee hours this morning the alarm clock read 4:41am
