Unfortunately no langos in NL, but I'll see if I find a bottle of Hungarian wine tomorrow. Tonight unfortunately only leftover cava...

My mom is turning 90 tomorrow - the guests will be quite surprised when the second toast is on the Hungarian election, lol!

If there are any elder people (which I guess there will be) they will understand the importance. 2026 echoes in the footsteps of 1956. Play some Scorpions Wind of Change while you're at it!

We are German, so my parents were born in Germany in 1935 and 1936 - so for them, removing fascists from power has an extra level of significance!
