Speaks Polish?: Very little, just basic greetings and some phrases, can speak it more than I can write it.

UK, Ireland / Three more Polish males lose lives on Irish roads [18]

Hardly the same level of seriousness, but my Polish girlfriend gives me constant grief
for my driving (which admitedly isn't great), but she claims Polsih are excellent drivers.
Going by this thread she's telling fibs, I've also found that she drove her own car into
a ditch once, and had to get it dragged out by the fire dept. - I'm saving that nugget for
later :-)

Life / Must See Movies in Polish? [65]

I've only seen a couple of Polish films so far, the best one called
A Short Film About Killing by legendary director Krzysztof Kieslowski,
which although it's pretty grim subject matter, its actually quite gripping.

HMV in the UK usually have a few in world cinema section or I've just
discovered polishmoviesonline.com who I'm going to try out,
just to practice the language more than anything else.

*It was subtitled in English

Life / Poland and Valentines day [5]

My girlfriend is from Poland, and she give no consideration for Valentine's day at all, says she can't stand it because of commercialism etc etc.

Of course, she could just be really unromantic :-)

UK, Ireland / Polish Easter celebrations in London [8]

My Polish girlfriend mentioned that Easter celebrations are a pretty big deal in Poland (bigger than UK anyway).

I realise it might be a bit early to ask this, but, I was wondering if anyone knew of any Easter celebrations for Polish people in London that we could go to e.g. big parties, cultural things, or is mostly family stuff back home ?
