Interesting thread.
I am a Scottish born half Polish man who used to be a fluent Polish speaker but lapsed over the years :( (there was a reason for it).

I live in the Inverness area and would like to reacquaint myself with the language and in doing so, maybe be able to offer some linguistic help to a Pole(s) who could use a "buddy" for mutual education. Any takers?

Scottish Pole = Caber :)

I suspect I will get struck down by lighting if I cross the threshhold of a church nowadays and I suppose loitering about outside would look a bit suspicious too.

I did try posting on a local Inverness Polish community but nic so far.

I have managed to shop in Pawel i Piotr Polskie Sklep and be understood enough to come away with sausage (kiełbasa) etc. and make a superb bigos which my Highland friends devoured with joy.

It might be useful for there to be a thread where similar minded individuals could contact through the forum and get some cultural exchange in their local area.

Sozzz, I just saw the Penpal thread ...ooops przeproszenie

Brilliant ! The only downside is that it serves to remind me of how much I've forgotten.
