Hehehe, you make me laugh, CK. No, really. Have you looked at Russia on a map lately, CK? HUUUUUUGE!!

Up to but not including? Ah, ok, I see. Crìochan na h-Alba are quite strong.

Love / How can I conquer a Polish woman? [84]

You got to crush her like a Pepsi can! LOL, Ali G is a nutter but a funny one.

Very good for Russia, LOL

News / Tusk's Proposal to Change Poland Constitution [27]

Some reading for you, Crow. Were you the author by any chance?

News / Tusk's Proposal to Change Poland Constitution [27]

Well, the commonality is that Tusk acts with a view to the next election and preserving power. Putin is of the same ilk.

ft.com/cms/s/0/28e6867a-c4c9-11dd-8124-000077b07658.html, some interesting reading for some.

News / What do Poles think of current President of Poland? [23]

He allegedly did well at the latest EU Summit but, then again, it's just the opinion of the media. The media shakes more than just hands ;)

News / Tusk's Proposal to Change Poland Constitution [27]

Yeah, that appears to be true. For what does Tusk need to arrogate in such a fashion?

Genealogy / Polish Silesians? [25]

I felt that this one should be revived. Silesian language and culture is rich.

News / Is the E.U. good for Poland?? [180]

It's good for some and bad for others, simple.

News / All this mess about Danzig... [122]

I know, I was talking generally.

Some helping hands were stretched, yes!

History / "The Struggles for Poland" - the documentary series, where to find? [3]

I have the book by Neil Ascherson, quite an interesting read.

Documentary "The Struggle for Poland"


My wife's stepmother has a show on TVP. If it's get-able, she can get it. I'll ask.

News / Tusk's Proposal to Change Poland Constitution [27]

Not enough is said about Tusk on the forum. Is this man really so unspectacular and mundane?

Life / Presents that remind you of poland [15]

This might be a good thread for Poles at Xmas time, thinking of loved ones both at home and abroad.

Love / polish boyfriend has wrecked my english [48]

On the party would be one of the first to seep in.

Just keep tabs on your article use ;) Then you know there is a problem if that drops off.

News / All this mess about Danzig... [122]

A land that doesn't commemorate the valiant efforts of its forefathers should hang its head in shame.

Well done Poland for paying respects!!

News / What did Poland get out of the wars and struggles for others? [1108]

The Art of War by Sun Tzu was a disappointment for me, but it espoused some useful words of wisdom.

I'm glad Softsong has clarified matters somewhat. George Bush jnr once said sth like, 'America and Japan have formed an enduring alliance, we have been great partners for 100 years'. LOL, oops

News / All this mess about Danzig... [122]

Who would commemorate the Russians that died, other than Russians themselves? Are you proposing that Poles should hold memorial ceremonies, CK?

News / All this mess about Danzig... [122]

We usually don't have too much sympathy for those that start wars.

Work / The qualifications for teachers in Poland? [101]

basilpaterson.co.uk/tefl_courses/celta.html, this is where I did my CELTA. It's a rigorous course but Jill and Berenice are highly experienced and know their trade.

You are constantly more analytical and reflective. Teaching in Japan became very mechanical, so natural after a short time. The CELTA, however, begs different questions. A fuller awareness is required.

Yes, who's that frowning German tho? ;)

News / All this mess about Danzig... [122]

Do dupy chyba ;) :) ;) :)

News / All this mess about Danzig... [122]

Why the need for change? Do you value the trait of seriousness?

Love / polish boyfriend has wrecked my english [48]

My schools have earmarked other teachers to teach beginners. I did at Callan and NOVA but not now.

Is teaching me patience then. Geez, be patient girl ;)

News / All this mess about Danzig... [122]

Do you find Germans to be serious people, BB?

Love / polish boyfriend has wrecked my english [48]

Self moderating, that's exactly it. Thankfully, I don't teach any beginners so I can up the tempo a bit. It was like pulling teeth sometimes.

Still, it taught me patience.

Life / Indian moved to Poland [532]

I welcome any Indians. Indian food is absolutely delicious and rich. Pasanda, Korma, Bhoona, Biryani, Dansak, Rogan Josh, Jalfrezi, Vindaloo, Ceylon, Madras, Dupiaza and many others.

I'm disappointed that the Indian restaurant closed here.

It's the true (sic), LOL

Seriously tho, little things slip from time to time.

Life / The Polish Moustache [35]

It's hard to top Artur Jorge, former footie coach of the Swiss national team.

Google Images him, not for length but for his brush style

Love / polish boyfriend has wrecked my english [48]

No, you are not alone in this. I find myself unsure of prepositions sometimes that I used naturally before. This is from being exposed to Polish people, not my fiancee. I don't think he has changed your English so drastically but little things sink in.

UK, Ireland / Aberdeen's Polish Community [15]

He's from America according to his profile. There are a few Aberdeens in the world, hence my question Osioł.
