UK, Ireland / Poles flee N. Irleand homes after World Cup riots [70]

'40 flee' after World Cup riots

More than 40 foreign nationals have been forced out of their homes following riots involving NI and Polish football fans, it has been claimed.

The claim has been made by the Northern Ireland Polish Association.

The trouble flared before, during and after a World Cup qualifier at Windsor Park last month. Eleven police officers were injured.

Real Estate / Foreigners: Please don't buy Polish Land! [823]

If Ola was living in second world war Germany

I wouldn't worry, Ola is a peasant.

The moderators have responsibilities to maintain the law.

They don't seem to care that the site owners could be jailed for whats posted on here. I suppose until someone complains it won't happen.

Its you who would like to censor argument, this is a open discussion forum where all views can be expressed, not just yours.
I quess you would like a forum where discussion is censored, like during the commie days,
get a life will ya.

So such thing as free speech. Post something that is criminal in one EU country and you can be extradited and jailed in another. Inciting racial hatred is a crime in the UK.

Two UK residents tried to escape to the US after running a racist website from the US - they were extradited back to the UK.

Real Estate / Foreigners: Please don't buy Polish Land! [823]

Poles just rub their hands and smile when they hear a foreigner is interested in purchasing their real estate.. greed works both ways.

Which is why I delegated buying our house to my girlfriend and their family. Still, our offer was 10% over asking price. The seller got 5x the value of her mortgage and we got a house an 2.5ha for a very good price.

Food / Foreign foods in Krakow - where to buy kangaroo meat, Vegemite? [28]

Dutch oven Refried Beans
David Herzog

Thats a pretty complex menu. I make them by adding cooked beans to fried onions, garlic and spices. Mash up the beans and its done. There are several recipes on the web.

If you want specialist food like Mexican its best to find online recipes and buy the spices in the UK or online, although many are available here.

Real Estate / Prices of apartments in Krakow are collapsing further down in 2010-2011 [150]

Both my girlfriend and her sister have inherited apartments in Krakow. About a quarter of her friends at nursing college own apartments here, something thats impossible in the UK at their age range (early 20's). Her parents own another apartment as well as being provided with accommodation as part of her father's job (Forest Ranger).

Life / THE BRITISH ARE COMING!!! [30]

Depends if they're Scots or English or Welsh, we're all quite different.

Or Irish. Ireland is part of the British Isles to, nothing to do with nationality just a collection of islands.
