David: Hi, Christina. How are you? Are you in the mood for holidays?
Christina: Hi, David. I’m fine, thank you. I am, of course. Seven hours later we’ll have Christmas. By the way, Merry Christmas!
David: Thank you, it’s my favourite holiday. My family is already getting ready for the feast.
Christina: What are they cooking?
David: Well, my mum always cooks a roast turkey with rosemarine leaves. It is incredibly delicious. You should come and try it sometimes.
Christina: With pleasure. In fact, I’m free after 7 pm today and can visit you. However, it will be a quick visit, as I still haven’t bought the postcards for some of my friedns.
David: No problem. Come to see us. I think the turkey should be ready by that time and you can have a slice.
Christina: I’ve never tried turkey with rosemarine. It should taste good. What else is your mum cooking?
David: She is also in charge of the desserts. Her main specialty is Christmas pudding.
Christina: My parents also cook pudding but with small good luck object in it. So in case you try a piece be careful not to swallow anything. Did you know about this tradition?
David: No, it’s the first time I hear about it. Which object do you mean?
Christina: It’s an old British tradition which my parents follow. They put a silver coin, a thimble, a ring and an anchor charm in the pudding. A person who gets a coin is supposed to be lucky and successful all year round.
David: How about the other ones?
Christina: The person who gets a thimble gets a sign of thrift. A ring is an anticipation of wedding, an anchor symbolizes a safe year. In fact, it protects the receiver from possible dangers.
David: That’s an interesting tradition. We’ve never practised it. What other Christmas traditions do you follow?
Christina: By some reason, my parents always place the presents under the Christmas tree.
David: We place them in the stockings which hang above the fireplace.
Christina: That’s what most people in Britain do, don’t they?
David: Yes, you’re right. What else do you do on Christmas night?
Christina: We often go to see the fireworks after midnight. Would you like to join us?
David: With pleasure. Do you mean the fireworks of the Central Square?
Christina: Yes, it’s almost round the corner. Why not to go and admire the city festivities? Apart from fireworks there is always a merry fair and some carousels. Everything is lit by cheerful colors and lights. I like the atmosphere of this day.
David: Me too. Let’s go there together.
Christina: What are you going to do after the 25th of December?
David: Well, I’m having a short holiday after that and I hope to spend these days usefully.
Christina: My school is also on holiday. Let’s pick a day to go skiing in the woods, shall we?
David: Sounds like a good idea. I’ll tell my dad to fix up my skis. One was broken last year.
Christina: I see. Then let me know when it’s fixed and we can have a small ski adventure.
David: Ok, I have to go now. Hope to see you a little later today.
Christina: See you.
