Life / Alcohol problems of Polish people [141]

Scotland has an average of 11.1 litres per person, which from the above chart, seems to put it up there with Ireland.

UK, Ireland / A collection of noimmigration's threads or "STAY AWAY from BRITAIN" [978]

The BBC link features a French poster looking to attract Polish immmigration.
The link is for BBC South of England, 500 miles away in the north, the Scottish Government is doing all it can to attract Polish immigration.

Just to highlight that there are differences in attitude within the EU and within the UK.

UK, Ireland / A collection of noimmigration's threads or "STAY AWAY from BRITAIN" [978]

I reckon you've been planted on this forum to boost the number of posts on here <s>

Somebody else came up with that theory too, Im starting to wonder myself....

Over 200 posts within two months, not bad for someone who cant stand Polish people.

Love / My Polish wife doesn't want to move to the UK with me - what to do? [96]

seems to be something for everyone

I remember seeing a programme on TV about a guy that bought a cheap property in Normandy. It was cheap because it was off the beaten track and half of it was a big lake.

He renovated the house and stocked the lake full of Carp ( or some sort of fish ). He then advertised Fishing holidays - made a mint.

Sitting beside a rod for a fortnight aint my idea of fun but some people will pay top dollar for it.

Can't see why the same idea wouldn't work in Poland.

UK, Ireland / Polish immigration in UK [491]

isthatu

I note you have more than a passing interest in the Warsaw uprising - did this division take part in supressing it ?

UK, Ireland / Polish immigration in UK [491]

do you remember the 1980s

Apparently there were that many Brits working abroad they made a TV series about a bunch of Geordies in Germany.

UK, Ireland / What do Polish people think about Wales and Welsh people? [191]

I hate the way they have so many great bands from such a small country.
I hate the way Cerys Matthews is sexy but not that good looking, in the way Catherine Zeta Jones is.

Footnote - Tom Jones was good in "Mars Attacks ".

Work / I want to move to Poland (but of course we need to find a good job) [117]

I guess it depends where you stay in the UK !!

I know I am biased but the Highlands of Scotland take some beating.
I remember reading a discussion on these forums about who had the nicest house while from my window I was watching someone land a 12lb salmon out of the river.

Depends how you measure quality of life.

Life / Punk and Garage scene in Poland [35]

By a tick

Youve got to get the head out otherwise they just keep burrowing. If you pull them out give the head a twist. You can always make sure by burning them out with a cigarette if you prefer !!

Travel / Which city is better to visit: Warsaw or Krakow? [169]

(but without the charm you would find there probably)

Can't agree with you there !
I thought Krakow was full of charm - it is also full of pubs within walking (staggering) distance of each other.
I have to admit though that I tend to find smaller cities more appealing than the capital in most countries.

Food / What's your favorite Polish beer? [870]

Zubrowka is stocked in my local Tescos. My Polish friends say it tastes different to the stuff back home - I dont think so - also do a few Polish vodkas too. Bit pricey though.
