Life / Bugs in Polish houses and apartments [78]

When in NYC, US, I was shocked seeing giant cockroaches roaming the apartment I rented. For the first time in my life I used sticky tray traps. And those commercials about anti-bug sprays etc. We kill roaches! To death!!! :):):):):

The only problem with bugs that I heard of in Poland was little ants.
Currently, my apartment is home to a dozen spiders which are allowed to co-exist with us freely, plus a dozen of flies which come through open windows.

A few moths ago my room was infested with little black bugs that were born in tree bark used as the floor in my tortoise`s cage. I had to clean it thoroughly.

History / Lwów, Wilno ... kresy - Poland have lost enormoust part of our heritage... [389]


I wonder if the English also gather, sigh and ponder in their forums : Oh, my God, we have lost such enormous part of our heritage in India and Pakistan. I hate that rascal, Gandhi. :):):):)

History / Lwów, Wilno ... kresy - Poland have lost enormoust part of our heritage... [389]

Well, it happens. Poles made a mistake by their alliance with Lithuanians in the past and later had to pay the terrible price.....

History / Lwów, Wilno ... kresy - Poland have lost enormoust part of our heritage... [389]


What the heck.

Poland lost its Eastern territories which had been settled by Poles for a few centuries.

Poland gained Western territories which had been settled by Germans for a few centuries.

There is a balance in nature. Heritage lost, heritage regained.

Now a question: your post suggests that you probably wish Easter Land was Polish again. If it happened, would you agree to give back Western Land to Germans?

Or you prefer this?:

History / German cemeteries in Wroclaw [17]


It depends.

In another thread we talked about WW1 cemeteries in Poland, many of which are renovated nowadays. Christian crosses, Orthodox crosses and Jewish stars stand by each other in peace and harmony.



The care for those cemeteries is natural because WW1 soldiers only killed each other. They didn't consider themselves to be Ubermenschen and others slaves, they didn't slaughter civilians and POWs by millions, they didn't burn and blow up whole cities, they didn't gas Jews.

German soldiers did all these crimes during WW2. What do you expect - that victims who were lucky to survive would take care of deadly enemy`s graves while their own family graves were still fresh?

But Polish - German partnership has done much to improve the situation. Old wounds have healed in most cases. That is why you can see such views in Krakow`s military cemetery:
