Love / Help-my polish bf doesn't fancy me! [94]

what is more important to you? Bjs or cars wrapped in ribbons as birthday presents for you? (a hard one, i know)

A well trained woman would deliver the BJ in the new car. Get with the program.

One must be careful to clean up any liquids that may stain the interior, pronto.

We have shipped packages to Babcia and Dziadek via ocean (never a full / part container, though) and used these folks.

USA, Canada / Shipping between Poland and Canada [8]

Well there is the underground tunnels that connect all the major skyscrapers. Used mostly as an excuse to avoid the winter storms that come off the lake. They were talking about a tunnel connecting the downtown Island Airport, but I think it was cancelled due to not enough technological advances to carry it off.

I know DHL operates in PL as well. They have a depot near Dziadek's dzialka in Bialystok.

If you had asked me for an unintelligent guess, I could have provided one. But none of the intelligent sort. Sorry not my rice paddy of expertise.

Edit: Whilst returning nutrients to their source, I remembered this organization as well.

Food / How often do you have Polish Food? [49]

Dunno why people pay for mass produced garbage like Heinz etc.

Lazy and or time crunched. Stuff like that is a last resort in this house.

Life / TESCO SUPERMARKETS IN POLAND. Where are they? [15]

Have a tin on me.

Zywiec that is, not the beans.

Edit: Google maps - locate your city, then in the search box, type in tesco (or any other large shop) and a listing will come up with all the nearby locations of said shop.

Law / Exporting Polish Alcohol to Canada [10]

/lcbo-ear/lcbo/product/details.do?language=EN&itemNumber =547679

That will teach me for searching for

Gorszka

instead of Gorzka and for vodka instead of WÓDKA. Good show on you!

Life / Why are Polish people so ruthless? [87]

I always want to know the relationship status of sb so that I don't tread on toes.

Especially your wife's toes.

Life / Consider going back to Poland? [90]

If you see a stranger or tourist or hear someone speaking a different language, just go over and give them a big hug and say 'WELCOME'

I think you found Lodz-the-Boat's Stash, haven't you?

History / What if scenario´s for WW2 and Poland [112]

But Germans fighting the whole world is really a stunt.

Actually, a cunning marketing plan to get the world to drive fine german motor cars!

Just a little advertising campaign.
