UK, Ireland / English tossers give Brits a bad name in Poland [139]


To me, English louts are the same as Scottish, Welsh, Irish or any other Country abroad louts.
I don't think a couple of thugs throwing pigeons around should condemn a whole nation. How many peaceful citizens go abroad, enjoy their holiday and don't cause any trouble? This is not reported because it's not news, but I would not mind betting that it is a high percentage.

Maybe it's because England's population out numbers the other home countries by 10 to 1 thus more English travel abroad and more trouble reported. There are good and bad in every country.

Please keep" homeopathy" out of the discussion, it does not belong in this thread. Thank you.

Language / Accent marks in Polish language [22]

I asked this question myself a couple of years ago, and some answers are here Two years later and I still hear some words pronounced with the "ę" sound. I have come to the conclusion that some words need to be like this, to hear the difference in sound between similar verbs like chcę (I want) and chce ( he/she/it wants). Maybe a native Polish member will clear this up for us:)

Wasn't Katowice a German town called Kattowitz many years ago? Maybe the meaning is something German?

News / WHY DOES POLAND, EU PERMIT FLOOD OF CHINA JUNK? [40]


Dewalt make good quality drills but are 3 times more expensive as others in the UK. Still it is the first choice of professional tradesmen in the construction industry. At the end of the day you only get what you pay for. Other good quality tools here are spirit levels from Germany, and trowels from USA. Again the most expensive, but the first choice for the trades. As they say "buy cheap and you buy twice".

It would be interesting to know which quality tools are popular in Poland as opposed to cheap imports from China etc.

Life / Internet Problems in Poland, need help connecting. [26]

But surely a router would solve this problem.;)

Life / Internet Problems in Poland, need help connecting. [26]

My first thoughts are that you will need a router to share the same internet connection on two or more pc's. With my cable modem provider, each network card in a pc needs to be registered with them to work separately. Having a router connected would help your problem, as it basically, sees all network cards as one.

When you open your, "Open Network Connections. " Does it say "Local Area Connection"?
Do you have problems opening websites?

Feedback / Can someone tell me why my threads are disappearing from the forum?? Aniol X [10]


If starting a new thread topic asking for a translation, it pays to add a few words from the translation into the title. It would also help if you have already started a similar thread to post your new request in there ;)

Just salt and pepper;)

Here is a link that I found for it.

Irish stew

UK, Ireland / What do Polish people in Ireland think of Irish food? [90]


The Irish stew that I have seen (in the North of Ireland) has only 4 ingredients + water, potatoes, onions, carrots and meat (stewing steak or lamb). I dare say some people may now add extra ingredients like swede but I have always seen it with the former.

This is simmered for about 40 minutes until most of the water has evaporated and the stew is so thick that you could serve it on a plate rather than a bowl. :)

Like the Polish bigos it gets better when you reheat it next day.

I never talk about religion because it is unimportant to me what a persons religious beliefs
are. Now are you going to keep on topic or shall I close this thread?

UK, Ireland / What do Polish people in Ireland think of Irish food? [90]


I have lived there for 16 years and have not seen it in an Ulster fry.


I believe not every one marches on the 12th. I thought this thread was about food:)

UK, Ireland / What do Polish people in Ireland think of Irish food? [90]


The two ingredients that makes it different from an English breakfast is the soda bread and the potato bread. Irish bacon and sausages, seem to taste better as well. In the picture there appears to be some black pudding, but I can honestly say that I have never seen it in an Ulster fry. Just as well as I can't stand the stuff;)

Another ingredient that I have seen is "vegetable roll". Its a bit like a half size hamburger made with sausage meat and has some kind of green herb in it. Some cafes would add a fried pancake as well.

It's no wonder that it is known affectionately as" heart attack on a plate" ;)

UK, Ireland / What do Polish people in Ireland think of Irish food? [90]


Not quite ;) The legendary "Ulster fry" holds that crown. Simply the best fry-up in the world;) Known as "heart-attack on a plate" it is definitely worth taking a gamble on it now and again;)

Travel / Best connecting airports to Poland from the UK? [9]

One option might be to fly direct to Krakow from Liverpool. Not too far from Manchester and there should be good connections to the airport.

Would it not be easier and cheaper, to drive it to the UK from Poland?

Life / Do I need a special adaptor for my laptop in Poland or will hotels provide this? [23]


I would imagine it is the same as everywhere else, you pay the hotel a fee and they will give you a password, simple really.
