UK, Ireland / England, Dirty, Expensive and a dangerous place to live? [205]

I have noticed one thing on a totally seperate thread by a lady ( Becski) who mentoined saving herself a fine by moving her car to other side of the road she lived in so the street could be cleaned on her side .

It appears wherever she is living people are given times they can and cannot park in places so as to assist in the cleaning of the streets .

Every first and last friday in her case i seem to recollect thats brilliant what a good practice and so easy to put into practice .

I think i speak for a lot of people in England when saying we are never made aware of when , where or what time a roadsweeper will be around or in which area , town or street .

And to be honest we are lucky to see one more than two times a month and i only live a few miles from large town i think we Brits could learn from that practice

How true Salisbury is wonderfull place go there four or five times a year mainly for the horse racing gorgeous cathedral and very friendly people .

An d you are correct about the south of England but make a piont if possible of going to the South West area Plymouth , Paignton , Dawlish , Exmouth , Dartmouth , and travel along through To Newqauy surfers paradise in sumeer time.

Try to get to Poole in Dorset and Weymouth Bournmouth to all along that coast is fabulous happy travels

UK, Ireland / UK HATRED TOWARDS POLES GROWING? [122]

Hi every one i would just like to say there are good and bad in every race and culture , it is much easier to see the good if you try .

We have a large amount of Polish were i live in West Bromwich and all the surrounding area and to be honest i find them polite and friendly and helpfull and have made some good friends .

They at least make the effort to speak english and learn it to a high standard how many English would be willing to do the same in Poland or other places not so many i fear especially the young chavs as it is put i maybe wrong but i can only speak from my experiences.

Each and every country has it's good and bad things we just have to look glorious old Buildings , woodland areas , local festivals and produces , lakes and mountain ranges , wide open pastures , we all live in this wonderous world we should all learn to live together.
