New Year - New Resolution
Happy New Year to all of you. It is time to decide on the future of this community. Many of you may not know that I pay $99 per month to keep it free for everyone. This amount is what I make from my YouTube channels at the moment. I don't mind, but only if this community becomes more active. We currently have many members who are still on Level 1 and inactive. So, I have to decide in the next 20 days. I have three options, and I would like your feedback before deciding on the next step.

Move to Patreon. I follow half a dozen YouTubers and support & follow about as many on Patreon. I'm sorry, but I have no time for this forum as a separate thing. I like the idea of it, but it's not for me.
Monday HAPPY HOUR
Ok, let's try again and make it happen. I hope to see some of you, if not all, tomorrow for a Monday Happy Hour. Let's kick off the week in style 👍

Sorry, but 30 minutes past midnight is way too late for me. I have to get up at 4 am to work :-D
Introduce yourself
Let's break the ice 🧊 and get to know each other. There are no rules apart from one. Be NICE 😉 I'll start first. You all know me probably from my videos, and you know i love being a bartender and presenter. But i also love deep diving, cooking, travelling, country music, photography and doing DIY around my house. I am from Bulgaria and started behind the bar in 1995. I worked in many places, travelled the world, and met fantastic people. I used to own a cocktail bar and a Rock Club, but one day i decided to travel and spend 7 years at sea.13 years ago, i moved to the UK, and it has been a good time, but it is time to move again. I plan to move back to Bulgaria with my family next year and hopefully open my bar again. YOUR TURN NOW 😉

Hello all! I'm Jarkko from Oulu, Finland. In the daytime (well, also night time, unfortunatly) I drive buses, but when I'm not, I'm most likely doing cocktails or fixing my website about cocktails (links below, hope that's OK...) I've never worked with booze or cocktails professionally. I got really interested in cocktails just before I turned 50 three years ago. Before my bus driving years (4 of them so far) I was a nerd working for Nokia, IBM, HCL etc for 10+ years but I got fed up with that world. But I'm still kind of a nerd and proud of it :-D So the links I mentioned: I also make cocktail videos on youtube but in Finnish: https://www.youtube.com/@miksologia Everything I do and have concerning cocktails & booze I put on my website (Finnish again...): https://www.miksologia.fi/here-it-begins/ I have gotten a lot of inspiration and recipes from Georgi so thank you, Georgi!

I should add, that I drive buses because I want to, not because there's nothing else :-D
DON'T MISS THE HAPPY HOUR
Just a friendly reminder: I am hosting our first Happy Hour on 23rd October. Who is coming? Check the calendar and save it so you don't miss it. Please stop by for a drink 🍸, and let's chat. I want to meet as many of you as possible. You can have a coffee if it's too early for a cocktail. 😉
