We meet at the "Ramp" of the Egger Brewery where we start off with a few drinks. Stefu explains the events of the night. My Irish cousins, Al and Dicky, listen in.

Schorsch puts the bedsheet on me then makes me grip the beer mug while he...

...actually plasters it on. Yes, when the bandages dry, that's hard-as-wood plaster.



By the way, Schorsch sells Snow Saws used in cutting snow -- ice fishing, making igloos, that sort of thing. Visit his site here.

This "shirt" won't be white by the time the night is over.

Schorsch explains the first "task" of the night.

I'm to walk to the nearby train station while playing the pipe. I have to play for money and earn enough for my fare into Bern.
