Food / Eating out in Poland [43]
When I'm in Poland there is always a lot of home cooked food but I also like to eat out, if for no other reason than the variety of choices. Of course that includes the traditional Polish restaurants.

Travel / Warsaw - a good place to meet young Polish girls? [20]
Damn............that explains why I never meet any in Wroclaw. We always walked (stayed close to Rynek) or our cousins drove us.
Just speak english on the bus and you 'll get all the girls.

News / POLAND's ENERGY -WHAT is it? WHERE is it from? [29]
I think it is primarily coal but an area of interest would be natural gas. Poland lies at the eastern end of the Permian basin which stretches from the Southern North Sea and contains the natural gas fields of the UK and Holland. The Polish area is comparitively under-explored and it is believed that Poland could contain some 30-40 TCF of natural gas. The exisiting producing areas needs to be re-surveyed by modern seismic.

Genealogy / Has anyone taken Genealogy DNA tests? [87]
I came across this recently and was tempted but have not made up my mind. Since my father and grandfather were only children and my great grandfather was the only male child, all my relatives in my fathers line are distant cousins. Our family surname is quite rare so it is possible that other persons who have the same surname but are from regions other than that known to be my family's, may be related....................but I would have to use a DNA test to be sure.
Has anyone who is Polish taken any of the genealogy DNA tests that are out there? What were your results?

The "big" US beer brands like Miller, Bud, etc are a waste of time. Poor quality beer.

Love / My girlfriend is polish [43]
This year is 10 years since I started using the damn thing. There are some (few) upsides to it. You get through airports much more quickly. My brothers now make sure they are with me so all of us get through customs and immigration before everyone else. Also it's nice when you are behind a woman who has a great ass:) It is my dream to be behind Jennifer Lopez in a long, long line.
No.

My ex-girlfriend has a lot of family in Holland. They were originally from Suriname. Where they live and work has quite a few Poles and they speak very glowingly about them. They are described as being polite, friendly and hard working.

Genealogy / When did Poles adopt surnames? [27]
I have copies of the birth records for the Sokal parish dating back to approx. 1781 and earlier which gives my family's surname and others in the town,
I find that odd. The first Census in Austrian Empire - southern Poland had all the surnames listed for each family. That was 1797.

2.3% ? Bloody hell.
According to a 1990 surname survey there were only 52 persons in Poland with my surname.

It's also only 15 minutes walking to the Rynek. And yes, the prices are quite good. I only ate in the restaurant a few times. Food was very good though. Every day we were in the Rynek trying a different restaurant each day. The evenings was home cooked meals with family.

Has anyone flown through Gatwick on their way to Poland? What's it like? I'm accustomed going through Heathrow but our airline no longer does this and I have to go through Gatwick.
I know the connections ex Gatwick are nowhere as good as Heathrow and I will probably have to over night in Gatwick on my way to Poland.
