Here I am, with a new load of energy, though it's nearly 3 a.m. in my country!!!
Neil, your Polish is cool! The song "Kuku³eczka kuka, ch³opiec panny szuka" (The cuckoo is singing, the boy is looking for a girl...) is a well-known folk song sung by the Mazowsze group. However, I still have no idea about the Danger song... I know lots of soldiers' songs, not necessarily revolutionary ones, but not this one!
Katlaughing, thanks for all the nice compliments!!! As for jumping, we've got a saying in Polish which goes more-less like this: "The goat was jumping and jumping till it broke its leg..." Hope it won't happen in my case!!! :)
Noreen, believe me, it happens sometimes that after 8 pints you don't even know which language you're using... It's quite possible that we were singing John Kanaka in Dutch, too!
Yes, Mary, I like the pope singing, too. Old as he is now, many people in my country love and respect him, no matter what they believe in.
Thanks for all the encouraging messages, both in the thread and the personal ones, I'm already a member!Thanks for the warm welcome!!!
