Trying to find out what Poles like to do in the UK

I have no experience of the Poles in England but I have been in so many flats in Poland for breakfast and they all do the same thing. They make breakfast and produce the same horrible black coffee with the powder at the bottom and the same disgusting kanapki- bread, butter, salami meat and then of course to finish off the table display is the God forsaken Polish television. I never listen to any of it, it disgusts me!

This is all very much out of date. We don't drink tea out of glasses, we have instant coffee, tea comes in tea bags. It's a different Poland to the one you speak about. We go to Tesco for the shopping the same as you.

Please, do some research on modern Poland.

I never listen to any of it, it disgusts me!

You said on another thread that you do watch Polish TV. You said that you watch one of the Polish soaps to keep in contact with the language.

I do not think that even until recently the Polish Nation has ever seen white tiolet paper or would even know what to do with the staff.

Yet again, do some research.

I always suspected Michal was full of s**t

This is strange for someone who knows nothing of Poland or the Polish language so thank you for your comment but keep it all to yourself. I have now gained planning permission to convert your little semi in to a swimming pool to put against my house.

You said on another thread that you do watch Polish TV. You said that you watch one of the Polish soaps to keep in contact with the language.

Actually, yes. I suppose that you have caught me out. I do indeed watch M jak Milosc on Saturdays and Sundays though it is not so good as it used to be. Mind you, it is only forty minutes a day in the afternoon twice a week and not the same thing as sitting glued to the bloody thing all day long like the Poles in Poland.

You beat me to it sapphire. I was just going to post exactly the same. I can't stand people who don't bother to get their facts straight and post stuff like this :(

exactly. and who cares where we live..we all here cos we have an interest in Poland and Polish people. Michal doesnt live in Poland, hasnt been there for years and bases all his opinions on a clearly unhappy marriage with a Polish woman imho. I dont profess to be Polish or live there, but Im not here to slate the people and country either.. why the hell would you bother.. just get a life

To tell you the truth, I always find the Polish a strange lazy lot. I could never understand how Poles can sit in concrete blocks eating breakfast with the television on

The one thing I like about Poland is that people still know how to live. The rat race has not yet taken over. I live in UK and I'm always working to pay the mortgage. There is no time for anything. I consider waking up and having a leisurely breakfast infront of the TV a luxury.
