UK, Ireland / PASSPORTS FOR POLISH PEOPLE TO COME TO ENGLAND [103]

Yes you are very right, but the way it is being portraid here at the moment is like it will be a kind of big brother thing, ALL and I mean ALL your information will be kept on this card.

But it also shows how important the card is and what value it has.

Yes you are so right, I think that most countries should adopt this type of ID it is much easier as you can carry it in your wallet/purse, I for one dont carry my passport everywhere only when needed for ID purposes or traveling, so it makes it a much easier for everyday use.

has all your basic information on it, some digital prints and citizenship number

This actually sounds like a very good idea, I still presume most Polish people still have passports etc for ID purposes when looking for work or bank accounts here in the UK, or will the ID card still work for that..

I have seen people enter the UK on an ID card.

What is this ID card ?? I thought that even though Poland is part of EU you will still need a passport, the onlay place I can go without mine is Ireland, Scotland or Wales... Can you leave the UK back to Poland with this same ID card ????

Love / POLISH SIBLINGS SLEEPING TOGETHER! [172]

Its a very simple logic really, if you walk into a shop and blatantly pick something up and walk out with it in your hands without paying, knowone tends to notice you because you are not trying to hide anything,

whereas is you walked into the same shop and shiftely put it into your pocket, looking around checking knowone is watching then you are more likely to get caught.

i will appologise in advance, yes i have been drinking but i still think i make good sense

Yes but then if it isnt hidden then it isnt suspected !!!!!

UK, Ireland / Do Poles integrate well into British society? [18]

With such large numbers of Poles influxing into the UK, do the indigenous local communities find they integrate well and do the local communities make alot effort to integrate with the Poles?

So far so good in oxford, They seem to mix very well in our community here, in my local we have about 4-5 regular polish drinkers, who know and get on very well with everyone. 95% of the Poles i have met here also talk very good English and can communicate on a very good level, with exception to the odd wrong word or missunderstanding, so yes I think they have intergarated very well.

Love / What do men want with Polish Girls huh??? [72]

so give them a F__kin break

If someone posts on here looking for a Polish girl in the SINGLES section then they are perfectly within there rights to do so, if they dont get a reply its hard luck.

Its not exactly taking advantage of them is it ??? And also like you say most Polish girls are very inteligent so why would they fall for this ???

Its harmless fun

Life / Price of beer in Poland [90]

Imported can run you 10-13 zł

I guess its better to stick to the local beers then :-)

When you say large and small, is this in litres, or pints ?

It depends where

I will be in poznan, I guess it will be quite expensive there

Life / Price of beer in Poland [90]

What are the prices in Poland for things like Beer, whisky, vodka etc ?
And same goes for eating out in restaurants ?
Obviously I know that the prices will vary according to product and type of establishment but I am just looking for general price comparisons to England.

Cheers
