Life / Golden Wedding in Poland, the protocol for giving gift for a wedding? [58]

The big lavish wedding is hardly just a "Polish problem" otherwise pointing people toward or offering them the simple solution of a cash gift is in no way "classless" it saves the buyer time and worry and the reciever the unwanted gift. Unless you live in a class ridden Jane Austin novel that is..

Life / Cost of raising a child in Poland [21]

I hear where you're coming from but, from a recent UK perspective, I don't agree, nurseries are the norm there. Whereas here some people regard it almost as child neglect to use a childcare facility under 5yrs old.

Just my experience

Not sure many people leave their kids for 12 hours. Ours goes for 6 hours max, 4 days a week, loves it and gets to interact with people his own age not only his parents.

Outwith your comment I get annoyed with the attitude that being at home only is best for pre-school kids. Seems a very Polish mentality.

UK, Ireland / UK driving license in Poland,is this valid for more than one year from arrival? [3]

Having read and heard conflicting reports I would be grateful if someone could help clear up the situation re uk driving license in Poland. i have a modern EU style license issued in UK. I've read conflicting reports as to whether this is valid for more than one year from arrival.

I'm obviously only now getting my finger out having been here for a year! Any advice gratefully accepted.
