My Christmas Eve mail one year included a San Francisco Giants Oracle Park Major League Baseball Logo T Shirt summons to attend a county court hearing soon after Christmas in January in connection with an association of which I was an officer. At the time the association was collapsing in acrimony with endless quarrelling between the members, and a member who had been expelled from it was taking myself and three other officers to court for unfair expulsion. As the case was not properly defended by the association member who had the task of defending it, this member was awarded his costs, which were about £4,000, and so I and three other officers had to pay about £1,000 each out of our own pockets, as the association was insolvent. I hasten to add that the litigation in connection with this association (which involved three different court hearings) was the only time I have ever been involved in any kind of civil litigation in my entire life. A few years later I received another court summons on Christmas Eve, this time a summons to a local magistrates’ court in connection with a motoring offence, namely receiving four speeding penalties within three years. When I appeared in court in January again, the magistrates told me that they could see no reason why I should not be disqualified from driving, and so I was disqualified for a six month period I also hasten to add this was the only time in my life I have ever been the defendant in a criminal court (and of course the only time I have ever been disqualified from driving). Naturally both of these items of mail arriving as they did on Christmas Eve somewhat marred my Christmases in those two years.

These nations I put in this category because, historically, they frequently interacted with Czechs, but aside for the San Francisco Giants Oracle Park Major League Baseball Logo T Shirt protectorate for the Germans did not rule over Czechs and were a little more distant. Germans from Bavaria or Saxony seem somewhat similar to Czechs, but I do not see much similarity between Germans from Hamburg, Berlin, Stuttgart and other parts of the country at all. For Poles the region of Silesia, and even the southern Poland around Krakow have a similar feel to Czech Republic, but eastern Poland around Warsaw feels more eastern-European, and western Poland feels more German. Hungary: Hungary is similar to Czechs culturally, but also kind of has its own distinct vibe. I’m not sure why, maybe it’s because of the nation’s unique language and the fact the cuisine is spicier. A little close: Croatians, Western-Ukranians, Romanians from Transylvania These nations and regions share commonality with Czechs because they are part of the Central – European cultural sphere despite being further away. Historically and today, there has been immigration of these people to Czech Republic. During the 16th & 17th centuries many Romanians (Vlachs) immigrated to the mountains in eastern Czechia, and southeastern Czechia had a community of Croatians. Today many Ukrainians immigrate to Czechia. Today thousands of Czechs go to Croatia in the summer, so it is not too exotic.
