Life / Help Needed, Which Snow/winter tyres tires to buy in Poland? [7]

The only thing that really works in snow is four wheel drive , but once the snow has been cleared a bit with a plough you should be able to drive safely enough in a normal car with normal tyres...Some cars are better than others in the snow , i have a Honda accord which is front engined and front wheel drive , always better to have the weight at the same end as the driving wheels , its also got abs which makes stopping a bit easier...The most important safety factor in my case is twenty plus years of racing which means i know how to react if it slides about a bit....Drive slowly , steer and brake gently , and carry a shovel , warm clothes , walking boots , and maybe blankets and a flask if you are venturing out in the sticks....You will be fine with normal tyres , just take it easy...if it gets bad , trade your car in for a 4 x 4....

Genealogy / Assistance required to locate my father in Gdansk [4]

I wish you luck with this...but bear in mind he may have a life and family in Poland that might get a bit shaken up by a part of his past making an appearance...It may be he has not told his family about this....

Life / Bisons of Poland - your thoughts? [90]

Bison don't have maps,

Sadly neither do wolves , or they would stay on the Polish side of the border where they are protected as opposed to the Belarussian side where its legal to shoot em....

Life / Bisons of Poland - your thoughts? [90]

Actually we were hunting the wolves , with a camera...i got talked into driving a film crew around in a Landrover after rescuing them from a deep mudhole with my Landrover...The guy they had driving was not exactly an expert off road driver...Whilst chasing the wolves about we saw quite a few zubr , and some funny guys with machine guns who told us we had inadvertantly crossed the border into Belarus..oops...not so many years ago they would have shot us , now they just escort you back over the border...There isn,t a fence or a sign or anything , so its quite easy to stray onto the wrong side of the border if you are not keeping an eye on your map...
