Love / The number of men seeking a Polish woman [85]

I have given up on the dating thing....I find it saves a whole lot of time if you just find a woman you don,t like and give her your house and everything in it.....

you cant expect everybody to know your language

Of course...we are British for gods sake....Its about time the whole world was forced to learn English , so that us Brits don,t have to learn any of these strange languages,,,AND , its also time we made all these people who drive on the WRONG side of the road do it the same way as the British....We are British , so our way must be the right way.....

UK, Ireland / Polish community in Leeds? [25]

is there a particular work around leeds that attracts polish workers?

Nothing special about Leeds i think , its just a city , and cities are the best place to find a job and a place to live....Most of the Poles i knew in Leeds went there because they knew somebody that already lived there , and could have a place to stay , and some help finding work....

UK, Ireland / YORKSHIRE POLICE SPEND 2 MILLION ON TRANSLATORS [32]

According to the Yorkshire post , the Yorkshire Police spent two million pounds on translators to help with comunication between them and East european people...The language most often required being Russian and Polish....I think its good that they are making the effort to cope with those that visit the UK....On the other hand , when i went to the Police in Poland with a problem they were not a bit interested , untill i returned with a friend who spoke Polish....I guess there are not enough Brits here in Poland for them to need to learn English , but i have a feeling there might be a lot of Ukrainian , and Russian workers headed for Poland....Do they have access to translators in the Polish police..????

UK, Ireland / Polish community in Leeds? [25]

I read some place that there are about 4,000 Poles living in Leeds...I am an English guy that lived in Leeds for 20 years before moving in the opposite direction..to Poland....I had a bunch of Poles living at my house in Leeds , and knew a lot of the Poles in Leeds....Many of them living around the Dewsbury road area....

Just to stir things up a bit....i noticed that almost all the pics next to peoples names on this post.....are animals....hee hee Seriously tho....i doubt there are more people in Poland into kinky things than anywhere else in the world.....Maybe the people in Warsaw just want to know what everybody else is up to.........

UK, Ireland / Polish teenager murdered after arriving in UK [117]

Don't trust the seeming safety of the nice neighbourhood,

Certainly not even in the nice areas there are gangs of thugs just waiting to attack at the first sound of a Polish voice....I admire the bravery of any Pole who risks their life in a city full of abusive English people......

It really does not matter if the guy was from the planet mars , he is a murderer who took a young life , and brought a lifetime of pain for her family.....Scum are not confined only to one race or colour....I am not sad and angry that a young Polish girl died in the country of my birth , i am just sad a angry a young girl died........

Life / Can you keep a right hand drive car in Poland? [57]

I too have seen right hand drive cars with Polish registration , but i don,t know how they did this....Everyone i ask says you can,t register a right hand drive car in Poland , but obvously some people have found a way to do it......If you are wanting a big engine car the UK is the chespest place to get one....You can buy a nice Audi , merc , or bmw for peanuts in Uk , especially if it has no tax or mot , Once its on the ferry you don,t need this anyway....One of the advantages over in Poland is that a right hand drive is less likely to get stolen , and nobody in Poland seems intersted if its taxed or mot,d.....Whenever i get stopped by Police they only want to see my Passport and vehicle log book......Only once did i ever get asked for my licence.......A polish friend of mine makes a living buying cheap cars in UK , and driving em to Poland to sell....He can sell the engine only in Poland for the price he bought the whole car in UK.....Try to get a car thats converted to lpg tho , its much cheaper than petrol......

agression from part of British people to Polish people.

I may be wrong , but i don,t think there has been any Polish person killed in uk , just because they were Polish.....Most Poles don,t have any problems with UK people.....A lot of people in UK are a bit worried about the large numbers of Poles coming to England.,,, but i don,t think there is any great racial problem......

Life / Can you keep a right hand drive car in Poland? [57]

canot register a right hand drive car in Poland

Everybody tells me the same..Unless its left hand drive you cannot register it in Poland..However i have been using my right hand drive UK registered cars in Poland for two years , and never had a problem.......My insurance etc is from UK , and covers me to drive in Poland......If you are planning on living in Poland it might be better to sell your car back home , and buy a left hand drive one......Left hand drive cars are usually cheaper in UK , so you can get a bargain......Yes they do have a yearly insprction of Polish registered cars which you must pass to get it taxed..Its not as strict as UK , and often they will pass it with faults they just tell you to get them fixed before the next inspection........Hope this helps........

UK, Ireland / Another girl from Poland murdered in uk [63]

Here is an idea for the moderators....Why don,t they put all the Brits who hate Poles , and all the Poles who hate brits in one seperate section.That way the rest of us can have a decent adult dialogue without being drawn into pathetic personal insults that lose track of the original post.....They in the meantime can insult each other without having to worry about silly things like good sense and reasoned argument......

careful what you say the coucil can fine you...

This was a tempory measure after i rescued these Poles from a dodgy landlord that had used a gang to commit violence against the Poles.....I managed to find a safe place for half of them....Some of them remained living with me.....The first few days we were a bit crowded out , but they were nice people , i had to help....Before anyone asks.....the dodgy landlord was a Kurd living illegally in UK......

UK, Ireland / Another girl from Poland murdered in uk [63]

Please lets not make too much of the fact she was a Polish girl who was killed in Uk , possibly by an English person.....Whats important is that she was a young girl murdered in a strange country a long way from home....She was not killed because she was Polish , she just happened to meet a scumbag who killed her....I made the first posting in the hope it would make Polish girls heading to the UK a liitle bit carefull in a strange city a long way from home , and not to fuel the anti British feelings of some Polish people......I am an English man who was quite happy to have eight Polish people living in my house in UK , most English people i knew were quite happy about Polish people living and working in the UK.....Posting anti British comments on here is not doing any favours for the Poles who are in the UK....Most get on just fine with the Brits , don,t spoil it.......

UK, Ireland / Another girl from Poland murdered in uk [63]

It was around 6.30pm in the evening when it happened , perhaps she was on her way home from work....The place where it happened was a dimly lit alleyway , perhaps not the best place for a young woman to be walking alone.....I just wonder if she was from some quiet Polish village where it is probably safe to walk alone in such places , sadly in many cities around the world it just isn,t safe to do this...I am sure the police will soon catch the person responsible , but that won,t bring her back to her family.....Cities are good places to earn money , but they are not always good places to live...This girl like the other girl who was murdred in Leeds was living in one one the less desirable area,s of the city....Unfortunatly many Polish workers end up living in these kind of places because its cheaper , or because they have friends already living there...Leeds was my home for twenty years , and i was lucky to live in a nice area....My small house became home to eight Polish workers that i had to rescue from a dangerous situation in the same area where this girl was killed....Go to the UK girls , make your money , but for gods sake be carefull , come back home in one piece........
