Life / Do Poles do hand shaking EVERY TIME they see friends? [30]

friends I haven't seen for a long time, we will shake hands

This is what I was talking about :) only when meeting someone new or seeing a good friend after a period do I shake hands.

Polish people are different, once they get to know them and they realise that they aren't offending some cultural belief of yours by shaking your hand too much then it's a shake hello and a shake goodbye! I personally like it, I think it feels more personal.

I'm not quite sure about the kissing of the girls though...

News / how to use SMS to send message to cell phone in poland [30]

What the 'beta' one ?? If so yeah I installed it and within 20mins had uninstalled it lol

I think it's alright, not as simple as the old one though. You can tell they wanted it to look nice like Vista.

News / Important Dates in the Polish Calendar [25]

I made the mistake of taking some comedy Halloween cakes to my Polish colleagues. They responded by telling me about 1 November and what they do on it. Talk about foot in mouth :(

Bless you. You weren't to know that now were you!

I've been trying to call a business in Poland today and been getting annoyed because nobody answers the phone! Now I know why that is.
