Language / A Native American or a Native Pole: Who is better into which language? [116]

A small Polish school gives you 900 pounds per month towards your rent plus wages? You must be drinking some of that funny stuff.

Sorry I meant 900 pound from the rent of my house in UK.

Michal does it take you a long time to think of things to say? Try to follow forum rules and keep everything in as few posts as possible.

Life / Polish legal drinking and smoking laws [7]

They enjoy a drink and usually people's believes here dont hold them back from partying.

They probably attend church on Sunday mornings, so be prepared you might have to go with them :)

You will have lots of fun. Polish people are very warm and friendly. This is general of course because everywhere there are some grumpy old buggers who like to complain all the time.

My maths is not a strong point at the best of times If he is earning over 700 pounds per month maybe I will change my mind and join the Brits in the teaching profession

Again Mickey not everything is about money. More money could be earnt working in a supermarket in UK. Some people just like to experience new things and feel like they are helping people.

you take it all so seriously that you ask for advice before you dare defend yourself. Oh, it is acceptable I have just asked a student

Michal I asked about the word 'bo' when I first heard the word. Look at the times of posting old chap, its end of school year so how would I ask a student for confirmation. Let it go and try to move on with your life.

He wouldn't understand,,he has a 5 bedroomed house in guildford

Actually then this guy is a decent fellow.

Its good of him to make sure his wife has enough rooms to escape to.

My dream job would be to move to Poland and work in a school and helping them there. Only thing holding me back at the moment are my two boys as i wouldn't want to disrupt their lives to much. Maybe one day. :-)

Its good you have a dream and are doing things to realise it. Dont listen to Michal I think he has had some bad experiences in life and it has made him bitter. I really hope you get to move to Poland and I see no reason why you wont.

Powodzenia!!

However, there are lots of English teachers in Poland from all over the World. They will survive without us

I think they will always welcome bright people into their country though. Good luck Lisa hope to see you here soon!

Life / Renewing my English passport in Poland [23]

to be countersigned if there is no major changes to the details held within the original passport these days. I would have thought that there must be an official web page covering all this somewhere.

Im not sure because of all the fake applicants and terrorist problems the rules are changing. Also I was always told on forms the photo had to be signed by someone who is in a respectable postition. Not a builder for example.

Life / Renewing my English passport in Poland [23]

The nearest to you is Poznan, I would imagine, if you are in Bydgoszcz

Well im in Torun but its the same deal. I must say im suprised at your help and I much appreciate it. Have a nice day. I mean that.

Well im in Torun but its the same deal.

Actually after looking at the trains journey times there is about 30 minutes difference between going to Poznan and Warsaw. As the passport office is very close to Warsaw train station and I know where to go in Warsaw I think I will just go there.

So it would appear michal is correct

Who needs to sign it?
Usually only you need to sign if you are applying to renew your passport.

But, if your appearance has changed so much that it would be difficult to recognise you from the photo in your current or last passport, you will need to get your form countersigned at section 10. You should ask someone who works in a recognised profession or has good standing in the community (tell me more about who can countersign my application form) who has known you for at least two years to do this. They must:

This is from the UK passport office. So Im getting different information here. Maybe I should just play it safe and get it signed.

Well im going to take a gamble and not get it signed. Its going to be a wasted journey if they wont do it but I cant travel to my school today to get it signed. Thanks for your help everyone (yes even you Michal) although I dont understand why sites are giving different information.

??

So went to the embassy today and if you are applying for a UK passport outside of UK you must have someone sign it for you. Lucky I have a "friend" who lives very close to the consular office who was able to do it for me.

I some how don't think the people in Jersey would like that.

It could be done overnight. Or arange a massive festival and while they are all attending this , we could build some houses and ship the muslims in.
