D: What’s Greek Night?

Me: It’s like a party and there will be greek music and greek dancing.

D: Awesome! I LOVE parties! Can we go?

Me: If you can stay awake until late – it doesn’t  start until 9.30.

D: I can, I CAN! What’s greek dancing?

Me: You’ll have to wait and see, it’s a special kind of dancing. Sometimes they even smash plates!

D: Why do they smash plates? – It’s naughty to break things.

Me: I don’t know, it’s just one of the things they do in a different country to celebrate. YOU shouldn’t do it.

D: Why?

Me: Because they’re adults and they buy the plates, so they’re allowed to smash them.

D: Do they break the ones we use for breakfast and tea?

Me: No – they use special ones.

D: …I don’t want to see the greek dancing, I think I’ll go to bed.
