Life / Do you think a smoking ban would be a good thing in Polish restaurants and Bars? [217]

and they have Polish beer but no music...
But cheap as chips, for sure.

They have a very good selection of beer.

thought that Ireland's Celtic tiger also destroyed the Irish pub culture, die to people being more money orientated and worrying about mortgage payments.

That's a very good point Sean. A saturday night out now is an expense and people seem to be drinking at home more now due to cheap beer deals, which are always on.

Did the bars not raise the prices because of the lack of business

It was a brand new bar maybe they were trying to re-coup some of their costs back and my bad luck as it was my round.

Almost all pubs have smoking shelters now for the people who want a quick fag and clean air for all is way better in my book, but then again i don't smoke.

Their are 3 Weatherspoons in my local town (2 good and 1 quite ropey) and they are always very busy. You can always get a pint of hand pull ale for 99p.

Yep ban it. It's way better now in pubs in the UK no more stinking of second hand smoke :-)

in UK it has been disastrous to pub culture.

I would not agree with this. What is killing the pub over here is the cost of a pint in most pubs (Weatherspoons are doing well) A while back in a bar i paid £13 for a round of four bottles of Becks, had i gone to the supermarket i could have bought 24 bottles for £12.

USA, Canada / What do Polish people think of the USA [287]

Shirley Matheson, a part-time Arby's employee residing in Dayton, Ohio, said "I live in the U.S.A., so why would I need to know where America is? Or the United States for that matter?"

She does have a point. Will knowing where the US is on a globe make her a better person?

USA, Canada / What do Polish people think of the USA [287]

but do Americans like learning new languages, or experiencing other cultures?

I would bet most Europeans have never been to Nth America, given it's size they have plenty to see over there.

Each state is some what different culture wise.

News / Should Poland Remove Visa Restrictions? [285]

3rd world sh#thole like Britain?

1st world shithole if you please, jarnowa/Brutal Butcher.

"Great" anymore as it used once used to be.

Yes but where is these days?
Bring back the glory days i say.

Fao Bratty

After the Old English period, Britain was used as a historical term only. Geoffrey of Monmouth in his pseudohistorical Historia Regum Britanniae (c. 1136) refers to the island of Great Britain as Britannia major ("Greater Britain"), to distinguish it from Britannia minor ("Lesser Britain"), the continental region which approximates to modern Brittany.

Love / Find a Polish girl using Internet [67]

I think that a polish girl would be better for me than other girls from other nationalities.

For what reasons?

UK, Ireland / Poles leave Britain to return to Poland [89]

since when are British people open to new cultures?

Look at the amount of different cultures in the UK, i would say way more than most other European countries.

And I got my information from Poles

Most people i know have nothing against the Poles at all, in fact they have a very good reputation.

Considering that English people tend to dislike/disrespect Poles

Which tabloid did you get that from Butcher?

He writes well enough for people to understand him

So i take it there will be no more "spelling fail" posts from you?

If you live alone by doing the above may alter your status regarding the legalised robbery that is the council tax ( the 25% discount ) might be worth checking first.
