Travel / Traveling across Poland with a dog. [13]

I can't reserve whole coupe,well i could,but i should probably buy all six tickets which is nosense.

follow the regulations and then it's noone elses business.

if you have a miniature then stick him in a pet carrier.

if the dog is big and soft most people will try to pet it.

ask at the station in advance and all will be ok. i see dogs on trains each time i travel. it's no big deal.

Travel / Traveling across Poland with a dog. [13]

What's the best way how to travel across Poland with a dog?

i'd take the train. however, u might have to buy a ticket for the dog. check with the conductor about stops lasting more than two minutes... for toilet breaks. .... and make sure u pick up after, if u have to.

Genealogy / Advice to translate pages from a Polish book into English? (Genealogy) [16]

I have not been successful in locating such a program.

have you checked the town websites to see if they have english language pages.

if you tell us the names of the towns we might be able to help you more.

i've found a lot of history of this sort on jewish genealogy sites and Pol/Am genealogy sites.

it might be possible to get the same info, but from a different book. name those towns

Life / Why is Polish Christmas on the 24th? [87]

There's probably regional (and urban/rural and class) distinctions.

folk tell you what the tradition is and at the same time break it. then they'll say 'yes, but one bottle doesn't count'

Law / Sending Western Union cash to friends in Poland - questions [25]

Of course, if the account is in euros..

the account may be in euro, but it doesn't mean that the bank has euro on the premises. and the hole-in the-wall doesn't dish them out.

doesn't the bank automatically convert to zł ?

edit: i see that you have answered my point.

USA, Canada / Where do most Polish-Americans identify on the political spectrum? [142]

the North American Polonia have abandoned and betrayed Poland

i don't know who might have betrayed Poland, but those here who have to apply for visas might have some idea.

They usually think about them during the elections, when sensible Poles rage that people who have never lived here or paid taxes here are interfering in Polish elections. Apart from that, they're a non-issue, except when they turn up and start interfering in Polish affairs.

i'll go along with that.
