UK, Ireland / Research for article -mixed Polish-British couples and Christmas [19]
annamaria,
I have posted on this subject already. Please, read the Christmas threads.
I don't mind if you send me a PM. Then I will answer your question in full.
I might not be the right candidate though, because we now live in Poland.

There are people here who might take exception to what you say. But I have to agree with you.

Food / Christmas Dinner in Poland [33]
Decorator.
If you see a candle in the window of a Polish home on Christmas Eve, there should be an extra plate for an unexpected guest.
It's up to you to find the candle.

Life / Are Polish People Racist? [1037]
The terms "Polish concentration camps" and "Polish death camps" are something the Polish [government I think] have been trying to do away with for the last couple of years. I imagine that modern youth in some countries don't know their history [as a subject] very well and the folks here just want to make the facts clear.

annamaria,
I don't have to watch TV to know what is happening in Poland. I live here and my work involves speaking to young and middle-aged people every day.
The Polish government don't have deranged ideas. They simply have no ideas. Hence the problems with the coalition at the moment. :)
What is this rubbish about gays 'coming out'. We have had gay clubs here for years. No-one [certainly among the young] cares about sexual orientation.
As for what people say on TV. I have done enough interviews to know how the world of media works.

Cyprian,
All families have their history. All I ask from you is that you have a little more respect for members when they post.
One good post far out-weighs ten bad/insulting ones.
Yes, be proud of your roots as I am proud of mine.

Work / Finding work in Poland as an Englishman [11]
What is a proofreader ? It is an Englishman checking a text and pretending he's important.
A proofreader needs skills in English Language, Grammar and a modicum of knowledge in the Subject Matter. It is also anyone who checks a text, however short.
"Have your private lessons with me [for 100zl ] and watch your marks [in my class at university] rise through the roof."

Matyjasz,
You don't need a native speaker as your language skills are better than most.
While you're at the computer you could try listening to on-line radio. With your interests BBC Radio 4 will help, if you think you need it.
