Genealogy / Antoni R. Uszynowski [2]

Ushinowski.

antoni

r uszynowski

this is my best effort. the first letter could be an r (because that's what i found via gogle)

the 'sh' is probably 'sz'

'i' and 'y' sort of sound the same.

News / Poland's future rulers meet in Katowice [5]

Kaczyński's Angels have launched their new website focused on the needs of Poland's young people.

I notice that the cameraman has no clue how to take a good leg shot.

If the piece ain't filmed, edited correctly then the whole thing is just a waste.

if you're gonna launch something..... get it done properly.

Food / Poland known for cheap food [7]

GUS figures show that Poland has the EU's cheapest food

if you live near biedronka.... it's cheap. otherwise it ain't.

difficult to measure prices here. milk can cost 2:20zl or 3:20zl depending where u buy.

i can find some things at the same price or cheaper in Berlin.

News / VAT, OFE, ZUS and costly dress under Tusk's government in Poland [48]

We cannot expect them to wander about in C&A outfits (nothing wrong with C&A, I also buy stuff there). They have to look presentable. And yes, that costs money. Just like a state dinner costs money.

best that you don't look at the photos in this piece:

Life / TVP axes Dobranocka [21]

Dobranocka, the nighty-nighty cartoon show for kiddies that has been around as long as Polish TV has been axed by TV boss Jukliusz Braun.

forgot about that years ago... my kids certainly never watched it... cartoon network took care of that.

Life / Passport Photo Booth - Warsaw [15]

I've been told that typically you can get them done at a photographers

this is because identity type photos must fit a profile. any old picture, often, won't do.

-my little boy is 10 months old and knows what NO means!

Best wishes to you and your little boy.

Rodzinka.pl - Polish comedy series directed by Patrick Yoka. Starring Małgorzata Kożuchowska and Tomasz Karolak. The series was developed on the basis of the Canadian scenario titled Les Parent.

The series tells the story of the divine, a family of five living in Warsaw. Lady of the house is Natalia (Małgorzata Kożuchowska), head of the women's magazine publishing. She is married to Ludwik (Tomasz Karolak), the architect. They raise three children together: Kuba (Adam Zdrojkowski), Kacper (Mateusz Pawłowski) and Tomek (Maciej Musiał).

Polish children at their worst and a mother who's always in tears.
It might be funny to Polish people, but it also shows that bad behaviour is acceptable.

Love / Girlfriend visiting Poland without me concerns [7]

My girlfriend is Polish and speaks it fluently so what I really want to know is should I be worried about other dudes while she's on her trip?

it works both ways. does she have doubts about you while she is away ?

respect and trust: without them your relationship is doomed.

Life / Poland's expats' colonial mentality? [176]

Many expats in Poland seem to want to remake the country in the image and likeness of their own prejudices rather than accepting it the way it is.

and no Pole has ever gone abroad and done the same.

Genealogy / Trying to find info on Pod Kopcem in Krakow - dom dziecka children house (orphanage) [30]

then you should be able to find her yourself.

your problem is if she changed her name by marriage.

check all social media websites.... including nasza klasa (nk.pl)

look for her on friends lists too.

a strange and unusual name will bring quick results here: moikrewni.pl/mapa/

the more info you give us the easier it will be for us to help.
