bluemisiu 1 | - 10 Nov 2008 / #1Does anybody know of Polish restaurants around Oxfordshire/Berkshire which might be open for a Christmas Eve dinner? London is not an option I'm afraid... Thanks for any info!
osiol 55 | 3,921 12 Dec 2008 / #2I might just hijack this thread for my own evil purposes. Partly because answers to bluemisiu's question seem not to be forthcoming, partly the title is actually relevant to what I want to talk about, but mostly because I am evil.I have been invited to a Polish workmate's house on Christmas Eve. I gather that Christmas Eve is the bigger day for festivities amongst Poles rather than Christmas Day itself. I have been promised vodka. If anyone knows the hand-to-the-throat drinking gesture... well, when the word "drink" was mentioned, that hand gesture to accompany it looked pretty flipping serious, with tensed muscles and gritted teeth., so my question is...will I make it as far as Christmas Day?
osiol 55 | 3,921 12 Dec 2008 / #4Is it considered rude to bring anything with me (other than one or two Christmas gifts)? I mean, they're not expecting me to supply a carp or a swan or anything, are they?
