Love / Polish mail order brides? [89]

I used to work with a Ukranian one... I have to take my hat off to her - she was very canny.

UK, Ireland / Teenagers attack a Polish deli in Trowbridge, UK [27]

I think that the saddest thing is that I grew up near Trowbridge, and while there were always a couple of "village idiots" it was generally a bit of a chilled out kind of place.

Food / I can't handle it anymore...I'm cooking curry... [34]

A good curry is cheap to make - you can make a massive batch and freeze it, and then just reheat the portions. Plus, you can make it as healthy, with lots of fresh veg.

Life / Bad opinion about Polish people - rumour or the truth? [90]


Very true, but I'd also say that pubs near offices that attract the Thursday / Friday night post-work crowds are also rich pickings. You see a big pile of coats and bags in a corner, as everyone goes off to chat and mingle.

Life / Bad opinion about Polish people - rumour or the truth? [90]


A couple of years ago, I visited several cities across the world that had a bit of a reputation for crime (not going to name them... don't want to get sucked into offending anyone here) in a 6 month period. During that time, I had my credit cards stolen from my handbag and a couple of weeks later had my handbag stolen - a gorgeous Mulberry one, a b'day present from my husband :( . Where? Both instances in quiet wine bars just a few blocks from home....

Life / Bad opinion about Polish people - rumour or the truth? [90]


I also heard that when I was living in Germany, however what I bear in mind is that the German telling me this was a totally narrow-minded tosser who had never left his village in 60 years, let alone Schlweswig-Holstein.

So you're not called George, then? LOL

Love / Why Polish girls are awesome? [141]


Ahh... there are two meanings of the word common. One means popular, but I was thinking of the other meaning, so I was basically sticking up for the Kasias (including you) if you see what I mean.... <digging a hole> :)

She truly is... and the name just evokes so many great things ;) LOL!!

UK, Ireland / Bulgaria Named Cheapest Holiday Destination in Europe (for British) [10]

Hmmm... I spend all day working with the radio on, and it seems like every 5 mins, there's an advert urging us punters to invest in property there. I'd be put off on that basis alone, as I imagine that it would be too much like the holiday on the costa blanca that I had with the inlaws a couple of years ago... every conversation that I overheard in bars and cafes was about property and how many concrete boxes nowhere near the sea other folk owned <yawn>

Love / Why Polish girls are awesome? [141]

No - not common at all... it's just that the name makes me think of porridge:

I am sure that there are lots of lovely Kaisas out there, but I'm not keen on the name myself... sounds too much like a wholefood :)

Isn't there a Wetherspoons in Preston or Blackpool? Or don't you live there anymore?

Wetherspoons gets a bad press - fair enough, I've been in a few that are full of wankers spoiling for a fight, but there are still a couple of good ones near where I live. They all seem to have a good range of Polish beers (at least three, last time I looked).....AND they've started selling zubrowka and apple juice. :P

Indeedy - you can't beat British girls for wearing their quirky statements with a large dollop of humour :))


Have a good one!! I'm staying in tonight on account of too much Belgian beer and chivas regal last night X(

Travel / Central / Eastern Europe Travel Plans 08 [6]


I disagree - Warsaw might not be as classically pretty as Krakow for instance, however I love it as it feels real. There are plenty of things to see and do, and a great nightlife too.

Life / Dungeons & Dragons - big in Poland?/Who here plays it [45]

This thread reminds of when I was at uni and I overheard this guy trying (and failing) to pull some girl by telling her that he was the persident of the Dungeons and Dragons society :D

UK, Ireland / Poles in UK turn to fast food [29]


You see that in Germany a lot / in the Turkish places in Berlin etc.

Life / How will I be treated in Poland by Polish people? I'm an English person. [26]

Nationality aside, you'll fit in fine if your are easy going and pleasant enought. This is the way that I try to come across, and it people don't like me, then that's their problem - this applies anywhere in the world.

aaaah... many happy memories down Yates' Wine Lodge.....

Food / Polish hot toddy? [9]

I don't think that whisky is particularly popular in Poland... shame because Poles are really missing out - curling up on the sofa and watching a film on tv with a hot toddy is one of the best bits about having a cold.

I sometimes grate fresh ginger into mine :P
