UK, Ireland / Night school - Polish language classes in the UK [8]
I know one in Central London (near Oxford street). Prices vary according to length of course and how many classes a week you have. They do classes starting around 6pm and 7pm for 2 hours either once or twice a week. Average price is around £200 for a course and there are different levels, but best check out their website for all the details: polworld.co.uk. I know some others in London too, but this is the cheapest Ive found.
I started a course there a while ago, have to admit I dropped out, but am planning to go back.

i worked for them once, they promised me good money, but I got only £1.50 an hour for 12 hours shift and was treated terribly. I think they are really a front for money laundering and not a legitimate business.

dont eat eggs or sausage myself.. I like bacon, beans, tomato mushroom bubble & squeak and/or hash browns and bread & butter... and maybe a can of Coke or a hot chocolate (dont drink tea and coffee).. avg. price £4.50 in London (variable).
Sorry, felt the need to revive the hangover thread to go with the other one.. anyway, thats pretty much it for me.. Im off down the pub. Have a good one.
wow.. sounds good, so I guess you order a crate of that to go with your crate of dogfish.

Kefir is a cultured, enzyme-rich food filled with friendly micro-organisms that help balance your "inner ecosystem." More nutritious and therapeutic than yogurt, it supplies complete protein, essential minerals, and valuable B vitamins.

Love / Polish Girl and American Guy? [33]
OK ..well my man spoke hardly any English when I met him and I didnt know a word of Polish.. despite that pretty big barrier we moved in together 6 months later and we have now been together for 2 yrs. Hie English has improved and I know a bit of Polish, but I have to admit that it hasnt been easy at times, not only because of the language, but the cultural differences are huge and at times we have come close to splitting because of this.. however, we love each other (most of the time). I think Polish guys are different to Polish girls (which is obviously not a bad thing)..anyway, I wish you luck with your relationship and feel free to contact me any time.
Sapphire....I would very much like to hear about your experiences

sorry dont understand what that means (circumcised?). John Bobbit became a porn star later didnt he? (he had a penile extension at the same time as having his tackle reattached). Still its a bit madder to cut them off yourself. Wondering if I have an unhealthy interest in this subject? maybe my bf needs to start worrying :)
