Travel / Getting from Wroclaw Airport into Town [23]
When i was in Wroclaw (January) i took this bus to the city centre and then got a taxi from the rail station to the Qubus hotel. Taxi was 20 zloty but from the train station you could walk it in about 15-20 minutes. Hotel is good with a nice short walk to the rynek or Dominika.

UK, Ireland / The Daily Mail's Swans Are Back [29]
The rarer fish in the UK are protected species such as the Vendace, Burbot and Powan. Sturgeon in UK waters are also protected by law, technically they are owned again by the reigning monarch.
Contrary to Shelley's opinion the water quality in most rivers in Engalnd and Wales is actually pretty good and many of the fish are good eating and perfectly safe to eat. Species such as Pike, perch, carp and zander are all good if prepared correctly. Just remember that there is a maximum of 2 fish to be removed a day.
in fact I dont fcuking know of any fish that's protected

Trapping crayfish in England and Wales is illegal unless you have a permit from the Environment Agency due to the native white clawed crayfish being under threat. So do not go down to your local river and do this without a permit:

Supposedly the best way to get seagull is to put 'alka-seltzer' in a piece of bread and give it to a seagull. Due to there inability to belch/burp/flatulate something inside bursts and they die!

From what I have looked up, prices for a 1 bedroom flat, range from about 500 to 700 pounds per month, is that right

High wages have drawn scores of Eastern Europeans to at least one corner of England. But not everyone welcomes this new workforce even if unemployed locals themselves refuse to do the same jobs.

Another holiday is needed in the UK. We have fewer national holidays than most of Europe and why not celebrate being British.

For me and most of the people i know, being English is associated with drunken louts and chavs. Being British is more about stiff upper lips, crumpets on the croquet lawn and tweed.
it's only the English that are happy with the title "British

Im afraid i disagree all of what you have said. Theres a type of tea called 'English Breakfast tea' doesnt mean the act is called that and it never has anywhere i have been. Never heard of English tea cakes, just tea cakes, (have heard of English breakfast muffins, love those!) and when people talk about louts abroad they usually say English as that is the typical attire they wear --> England football shirt and England flag. Brits abroad are usually classed as ex-pats in my experience.

UK, Ireland / Gang attack Polish man with knife [87]
Comes as no surprise. Boston isnt a nice town. Its a place with a high number of immigrants from all over the World; Poland, Russia, Portugal, Iraqis, Kurds etc. Some pubs have signs up stating "No English" on the doors. Large scale fights between the various nationalities especially the Kurds and Iraqis occur on a regular basis.
Lots of BNP support among the white working class. Most work is unskilled and low paid and with immigrants, often illegal, taking jobs there isnt much left for the poorly educated.

Im afraid its not funny G. Maybe taking was the wrong word. Its a fact that the gangmasters employee the people willing to take the lowest wage and that is the immigrants particularly the illegal ones as they have no one to complain to and are just grateful for being here and having a wage.

No one has been arrested for the attack. How do we know who did it? Maybe it wasnt a British person, could have equally been, Russians, Portuguese, Kurds, Iraqis or even other Poles.
Food for thought.....
