Love / The relationships with the Polish girls? "Platonic friendship." [36]

it'll be platonic for a long, long time if there was 0 reaction to your moves.

Life / Dogs and taxes in Poland - who is responsible? [7]

dog laws are on a county level but cities and towns may have their own ordinances beyond the county. i'm not sure what a license cost here; not many peeps do. $2-3 would be my guess. for agressive dogs one has to have a permit and possibly a bond (insurance.) there is a leash law in effect here, 6ft but nothing about muzzles which surprises me greatly. pits are legal and not all fall under the category of a dangerous dog. the local pit lobby has been working hard with good success.

vaccines are mandatory - rabies only. we have a 3 year shot here so if your pet has one of those then they have to just go back every 3 otherwise it's every year. none of our laws are strict or enforced so, for the most part, i haven't bothered with many of these tasks.

ll, since you are spanish, this relationship will feel like a platonic one 4 ever. if you don't think you feel it anymore, don't waste your time.

UK, Ireland / Social control in Polish communities in Ireland, UK and elswhere [40]

i think the main reason for this is that a foreigner wouldn't feel all that comfortable with all polish speak and all that. that's the only reason i sometimes exclude my non pl friends from my pl activities.

Life / Whippet dogs in Poland? [18]

hmm.. definitely not a curled tail.. body is similar though but not the head. now it's buggin me to know what the heck that dog is.. anywho, it is not a whippet. :)

Travel / Pets on a plane to Poland? [16]

call LOT and find out. on US carriers it's really not problem. you have to have an approved pet carrier and you may want to talk to the doc about some dizzy pills for the animals. there may also be an issue of vaccinations etc.. again, best to call the airline.

Life / Whippet dogs in Poland? [18]

yes, whippes is a fox, wabbit dog.. very fast but compact. they are terriers however.

History / Identify medal from Austrian area of Poland [36]


are you sure?? i can't tell what that is at all from that pic.. it looks like a shadow but can't ID beyond that.

i'd say your best bet would be some military history freaks forum. someone out there will know.

how do you know it's for Galicia? maybe that's "blinding" your search?

also, what's on the reverse side?

the color wheather yellow or white are purely guesses that's why i asked. it could also baby blue or some other color that is badly faded. the ribbons seem to be the best clues from my experience.

History / Identify medal from Austrian area of Poland [36]

may want to also describe the medal, ribbon collor and size.. etc.. anything else you may know about it. how do you know it's Galicia related?
