Bloody Cold

It is the middle of winter in Poland, It has not stopped snowing and I have had enough of cabbage. Coupled with that, It is exam week at school. I have had to deal with people who, well there is no other way to put it, CHEAT!

It comes from the Polish habit of not wanting to learn Russian, so they would do anything to make the compulsory exams easier. Writing on hands, inside pencil cases and on the back of postage stamps. Quite incredible to see, I confiscated one, and the writing on it was so tiny i could barely read it.

I wish I could go for a heated bath and massage like my friend Katie. Spare a thought for me next time you get a massage, what I would give.

Anyway, what awaits me now is the endless marking of papers, papers.............

Oh! I forgot to mention, they do this thing in Poland called warm beer. It is a mix of herbs and spices with, well, beer. It certainly takes your mind off of being cold.

Time to brave the snow storm and get a beer, erh!! I mean mark my papers.
