There is one pub and one ice-cream shop/bakery in Tynec Nad Sazavou, so the local cronies spend most of their days bickering over beer at the pub, while the kids enjoy ice-cream next door

As they packed up, the trumpet player caught my gaze and I rolled my eyes in sympathy as we shared a moment of exasperation at the authorities.
