Love / Fell in love with a Polish girl, but find it difficult to approach her [620]

I tend to agree with 'southern'. Stop messing about and get stuck in. If you don't act now she'll probably be with someone else soon.

Why do men fall apart with Polish women. Don't put them on such a high pedestal otherwise they are out of reach.
Have more confidence. If you have what it takes you'll get that first date.

It's time to get out of your neighbourhood and have a look around. As with any country there are plenty of beautiful people about.

The locals here all complain about about dog mess and at the same time think I'm a little odd when I clean up what 'Dream' leaves behind.

Life / Do Polish People steal a lot? [330]

Without doubt Polish people steal. Only today I was given two doughnuts by the boss and within minutes one of them went missing. I asked around, but no-one would admit their guilt. It saddens me to know that people can do this especially as the workforce had already made it's way through a whole baker's tray of them.

Food / traditional breakfasts in Poland [74]

s,

I work in a small factory. I've never seen anyone eat a snack-bar at break time.

Most of the guys eat cheese or ham rolls and drink tea. Health food would be an apple or yoghurt.

UK, Ireland / Polish TV channels in the UK [95]

Canal + and Polsat each come with different packages.

The more expensive the package, the more channels you get.

Canal + is the best in my opinion.

We have both systems.

Genealogy / Michal Kreczak born in Kropiwinica - looking for survivor of Polish Air Force [13]

jelly,

We need a name. Then one of us will be able to search any Polish language sites for you. If you prefer we can tell you how to use the search facility on Polish sites.

I think you should go along with 'globetrotter'. If only to eliminate your family members who might have served in the RAF. And of course most sites will be in English.

Were these people pilots or ground crew ? Did they serve in the same squadron ?
Have you looked for a list of Polish war memorials ?

I'll post one or two Polish/English [airforce] sites tomorrow. But check the other threads because I know that there are already some mentioned.

Travel / Coming to Poland with a pet :) [47]

Not so. It depends on the breed of dog. There is a list of dangerous dogs, which must wear a muzzle. Any dog off the lead must also wear a muzzle. There are also local by-laws regarding dogs. Some authorities enforce the rules, some are more lenient.

Love / Your Thoughts about 20 Year Age Difference Between Men & Women in Poland? [74]

Why are you asking us? If you are in a loving relationship and have doubts. Ask your partner. What would she think of you, if she read this thread ?

News / What's the stupidest question asked about Poland? [414]

A lot of people think Poland is still stuck in the 70's or before. So any questions about: shops, transport etc. Even on these boards some posters are asking about buses and how to get around. It's like we still have dirt tracks and donkeys.

You should be able to get 'Polonia'. It has English sub-titles.

Life / What I miss and don't miss about Poland [64]

Eurola,

In the summer they wake you up damn early. And they say the countryside is a peaceful place. Cows, chickens and tractors all before 6:00am. I love it and I hate it. I spend most of my time in the city though.

Life / What I miss and don't miss about Poland [64]

Actually, I meant the eggs. In truth I don't eat much meat, mainly because I don't like it.
I'm a veggie man because of flavour and taste.
