Hum.

We obviously frequented different bars. Vodka is why Russia is christian
& most who move into the area develop a taste for fermented
potatoes/corn/barley/various fruits/anything with sugar in it (including
simply emptying bags of sugar into a vat).

I am sure the Christian club was just round the corner from a proper
russian bar serving all.

& it sounds like that is where this scrap started.
