In the past week we had a visit from the Polish grandparents of our boys. It was almost like going to Poland only much easier since we didn’t need to travel. No more cereal for breakfast or tea with milk, just bread with ham, cheese, jam and honey and tea without milk. It was a refreshing break from our regular routine. Kuba, Stefan and Patryk loved it too, including a suitcase full of presents and all the spoiling they received during the visit, especially from grandpa. Stefan, who normally uses his words sparingly, was shouting at the top of his voice from early morning : \u201cDiadek!!!, Diadek!!!\u201d (Grandpa in Polish<\/em>). Kuba on the other hand was trying to impress everyone NOT with his natural eloquence but rather with his surreal and repetitive ‘comical’ performances such as: \u201cChipsy!!! (Crisps in Polish<\/em>) followed by a silly face and loud outbursts of contagious laughter. I have to say, the most gracious and well behaved was Patryk who gave nice warm smiles to grandma and granddad and never shouted without a reason. We hope his friendly and gentle nature will not change much when he grows older.
\nWe also managed to organise a few trips to see interesting places in Scotland, taste some real Scottish food (fish&chips in this case) and experience some real Scottish weather, although, fortunately not too much of it. The only disappointment was an attempted meal at the Polish Club where after waiting for an hour in a seemingly open restaurant we were told that the kitchen staff was partially unwell and partially on holidays and no food would be served. Well, instead of indulging ourselves in barszcz<\/em> czerwony<\/a> and bigos<\/em><\/a> we opted humbly for the speed-of-light production from the local “Wok World” take-away. We should have known that in a Polish Club we would find not only original Polish food on the menu but also quite authentic Polish customer service \ud83d\ude42

W ci\u0105gu ostatniego tygodnia go\u015bcili u nas z wizyta polscy dziadkowie naszych ch\u0142opc\u00f3w. By\u0142o to prawie jak podr\u00f3\u017c do Polski z t\u0105 jedyna r\u00f3\u017cnic\u0105, \u017ce nie musieli\u015bmy nigdzie si\u0119 przemieszcza\u0107. Koniec z p\u0142atkami i herbat\u0105 z mlekiem na \u015bniadanie, jedynie chlebek z szynk\u0105, serem, d\u017cemem i miodem oraz oczywi\u015bcie herbatka bez mleka. By\u0142o to bardzo korzystne urozmaicenie naszego dziennego harmonogramu. Kuba, Stefan i Patryk te\u017c mieli wielka frajd\u0119. Dostali walizk\u0119 pe\u0142n\u0105 prezent\u00f3w oraz byli rozpuszczani przez ca\u0142y tydzie\u0144, szczeg\u00f3lnie przez dziadka. Ma\u0142om\u00f3wny do tej pory Stefan ju\u017c od samego rana wo\u0142a\u0142 na ca\u0142y g\u0142os: \u201eDiadek!!!, Diadek!!!\u201d. Kuba natomiast zamiast \u015bwieci\u0107 wrodzon\u0105 dwuj\u0119zyczn\u0105 elokwencj\u0105 pr\u00f3bowa\u0142 do znudzenia swoje ‘komiczne’ wybryki typu: \u201eChipsy!!!\u201d po czym niezbyt m\u0105dra mina oraz salwa \u015bmiechu, trzeba przyzna\u0107 do\u015b\u0107 zara\u017aliwego. Najgrzeczniejszy z ca\u0142ego towarzystwa by\u0142o zdecydowanie Patryk. Zawsze bardzo ciep\u0142o si\u0119 u\u015bmiecha\u0142 do babci i dziadka i nigdy bez powodu nie robi\u0142 awantur. Miejmy nadziej\u0119, \u017ce usposobienie mu si\u0119 nie zmieni jak podro\u015bnie.
\nUda\u0142o nam si\u0119 r\u00f3wnie\u017c zorganizowa\u0107 kilka wycieczek, aby zobaczy\u0107 ciekawe miejsca, zasmakowa\u0107 prawdziwej szkockiej kuchni (w tym przypadku ryby z frytkami) i do\u015bwiadczy\u0107 prawdziwej szkockiej pogody, na szcz\u0119\u015bcie w umiarkowanych ilo\u015bciach. Jedynym chyba negatywnym akcentem by\u0142a pr\u00f3ba posi\u0142ku w Klubie Polskim. Po godzinie oczekiwania w otwartej wydawa\u0142oby si\u0119 restauracji, zostali\u015bmy poinformowani, \u017ce obs\u0142uga kuchni jest cz\u0119\u015bciowo na urlopie, a cz\u0119\u015bciowo ‘na chorobie’ wi\u0119c obiadu nie b\u0119dzie. Zatem tego wieczoru zamiast delektowa\u0107 si\u0119 barszczykiem czerwonym, kotletem schabowym i bigosem, pocieszyli\u015bmy si\u0119 b\u0142yskawiczn\u0105 produkcj\u0105 na wynos z lokalu “Wok World” (ang. \u015awiat Chi\u0144skiej Patelni<\/em>). Powinni\u015bmy byli wiedzie\u0107, \u017ce w polskim klubie nie tylko dania s\u0105 autentycznie polskie, ale tak\u017ce obs\u0142uga klienta \ud83d\ude42
