Nowy kleparz is near the student accommodation, depending upon which way you drive. Come on tell us the name of the pub, I shall not bring my British friends there I promise, really really really. I am curious,I think that I was possibly in this bar, after a concert at the university. If you tell me the name I shall tell you the price of the beer at that time.
Nope, not there, nearer nowy kleparz

Love / Just met the man of my dreams. I'm an American girl, he's Polish. [49]
Randal it might have nothing to do with the nationality, it may be the case that you have fallen in love with someome who is different to whom you usually date. She has unearthed something that has laid dormant in you for a while , and brought back that side which you had forgotten about.
A bit like finding something in the attic from years ago which used to make you smile, but then you got all mature and outhgrew it, then suddently it appears in your life again years later and releases the inner spirit, that has been dead for years.
Some people make you feel like that, but I have to admit they have to be special.
I know just how you feel. My Polish girl caused me to become a grinning, babbling idiot when I was in her presence

News / Forget Ukraine! The question is: " Is Poland going down??" [36]
Oh okay so they knew what they were doing, but did not really care about the consequences, because they knew directly they would be okay.They just have to give up one of their holiday homes, that they frequent once every summer, unlike many people who are losing their homes and their main source of income.
I wonder if the nation would be more forgiving if a pilot took off with fuel. Sometimes in life someone has to take responsibility. Seems this has been forgotten.
there were enough people who warned for the bang...

News / Forget Ukraine! The question is: " Is Poland going down??" [36]
There is alot of truth in that statement. It beats me how some of the top paid, top educated people at the top of their professions could not see what was about to happen "almost overnight". However, surprise surprise they appear to come out "glowing", whilst the rest of use have to sweep up the crap.
Sorry I just have to say this. Everything I as brought up with honesty and moral values appears now to just turn around and bite me on the ar.... Just what type of society have we turned into where we would rather see Jade Goody's suffering than watch Mastermind.
This financial crisis is artificially created.

News / Forget Ukraine! The question is: " Is Poland going down??" [36]
I don't wish polish people to go back. I have no problem and never had any problem with this. I take people for what they are, whatever their nationality.However the £ to the zl is bad, and many will go back because jobs in the uk have rapidly decreased almost overnight. It is hard in certain areas for people of any nationality to get a job, it is really that bad.
Depressing as it is, it is an everyday occurance for companies to announce that they are closing down, or shredding their workforce. Even the menial of jobs, many people are applying for.
Of course some people are going to come back but not a majority, despite your best wishes.

News / More and more jobs moving to Poland from other parts of Europe... [50]
No Sean its the same opportunities for a cheaper price! Large firms relocating to Poland has beeen going on for the last 10 years I don't see why there is such a panic now amongst the British. I suppose when the "chips are down".
Yes, lesser, but what jobs are moving? Surely it's just a case of different opportunities in different countries.

This is the precise time to invest if you have the money, of course it is. The clever people in the banks predicted this 2 years ago and got their cash out, and now are willing to invest again with a hugh profit. hey are the winners all the time. The ones that read the market are the survivors. They are the first ones with the information.
Investors take their chances but who, in their right mind, would heavily invest now?

Love / Whose Life is it? Polish girlfriend under family "house arrest" [224]
I can remember commenting to my friend in Poland that very rarely do I see retarded people in Krakow, such as Downs Syndrome, people mentally retarded in wheelchairs or any such disability which is visible. She replied that they keep them in the house and very rarely expose them to society. I know that there are not very many facilities for these people to go, in the day, unlike in England. (day centres etc). I suppose that it will change little by little, but it does seem a little draconian!
Thanks anyway.

Really, is there such rejection of mential illness that the family do not want to be associated with this. It sounds so much like the 50's in England.
I am just interested does this bring disgrace on the family? that they just don't talk about it.
2. she has a history of mental illness (high stigma that never wears off)

Love / Polish women are known for their beauty, but men are so ugly (most of).. [250]
I think that some of the girls are attractive, and have lovely figures but I would not say that they have a real reputation for outstanding beauty, otherwise they would soon become supermodels, which there does not appear to be many from Poland.
I also agree that young women from the Uk and other western countries have become so overweight it is hard to see their real beauty, and behave more like men than women, which I am sure can be offputting for many men.
The spanish have some beautiful women with beautiful figures, but that does not mean to say they are known for their beauty.
