Poland in photo riddles

Correct answer: It's a GIGANTIC, grilled kielbasa, located in front of a restaurant in Old Town Warsaw :)

• 
  Gigantic Kielbasa!
  

I am sorry. It is NOT a gigantic grilled kiełbasa.

Then it's a sun ripened wichetty grub ; )

Nope. It is a gigantic grilled PARÓWA. :):):)

I bought certain second-hand antiquated device which I used to have in my childhood. Many of my sweet memories are attached to it. Now, I use it again with my kids and they are fascinated, despite being surrounded with modern gadgets. They frequently ask me: Dad, when will we .....?

What do I mean?

PS. We use it in the evening.

in this house it would mean the tv.

Nope.

But you are partly right. There was a period in my life when I hadn`t had a TV for about 10 years. :):):):) I bought it when our first kid was born - for my wife who stayed at home a lot then.

it can be many things. commodore64? ;)

Nope, though it involves watching and reading.

Slide projector?

Hail to you, genius! :):): Yes, out of pure sentiment, I purchased an ancient slide film projector. Many sweet memories from my childhood are connected with our "home video" sessions back in those 1970s.

I didn`t know they made hundreds of films, while we had only a dozen or two.

Nwahh, happy memories eh?
I remember my grandad used to spend hours sorting his slides for our occasional sunday night slideshows....but,hey, how posh, he even had one of the mini movie projectors (no sound), 3 home movies,one of a road journey in spain....and a 7 minute Western :)

How did you know I set Sundays for our mini slide films shows?

PS. I have just found a set of ten mini flims in a forgotten drawer. Holy cow!


Ooops, emptying the forgotten drawer at Midnight:45 caused a little noise.
My wife asked: Do you drink too much or too little?

But it was worth it - I found 10 mini films.

better than You Tube !

My turn;
ps,look closely at what is written. ;)

  where?
  

where? Palac Kultury i Nauki

Each Pole should know this. :):):)

lols, easy for Poles I grant you :)
But, what made me laugh was the fact that the local who took me there hadnt noticed that part of the X in Marx had been rubbed out to leave it as, MARY ENGELS LENIN :)

:-) He must have had a practical mind, converting a communist symbol to a religious one: Maria degli Engeli.

This invokes an old image ...
During my university days, my wife and I rented a room from a lady of hard hearing, who was also 90% blind (a war incident). Our room was facing a main street where the Corpus Christi procession passed every year. On that day all balconies around were already decorated with garlands, flowers and holly icons - only our balcony was still empty. Bending under social pressure she asked us if she could borrow a sizable image of Holly Mary, hanging in our room, and place it at the balcony. She even did not blink when we explained to her that it was a reproduction of Mona Lisa. - No one will ever notice - she answered with a cunning smile.

haha, I got the basic religious message with Mary but hadnt realised it was even more cunning than that.
For all us protestants,what does "Maria degli Engeli" mean ?
Its a few years since I took the photo,but if I remember right it looked to have been worn down after it was in place ( i suppose that would be a no brainer as it would never have got past the foremen) and looks to have been done a while ago,so, could it have been in the 80s? I seem to remember photos of big demonstrations around there.....if so,more subtle than giving Churchill a mohican :)

I corrupted it on purpose; it should be "Maria degli Angeli", Mary of the Angels.
There is a Basilica Santa Maria degli Angeli e dei Martiri (Basilica of St. Mary of the Angels and the Martyrs) in Rome.

Thank you.... :)

Ooops, why don`t you remind me to post more riddles?

What is going on?

Did the gentleman fall down and twist his ankle?

He fell down but didn`t twist anything. His mind had already been twisted enough.

something to do with the result of drink.

He's recently rediscovered a liking for being breastfed? ;)

Yes! The guy had exaggerated and his poor wife tried to transport him home, probably the 445th time during their marriage.

There is a small statue/figure in the tower. What?

'had overdone it' is better, pawian san :) :) Przesadził is more of a Polish expression here.

A victory salute of some description? Is it Odin? ;)

looks roman to me. a roman watchtower and a ceasar figure.

Sean, after 30 years of my English language career, I have learnt that almost anything what I say or write goes. This exaggerated is included in it too. :):):):)

Thanks, anyway. :):):)


Nope. We aren`t Vikings. :):):):)


Nope, we aren`t Scots opposite the Hadrian Wall, either!
