pawian, your turn.

Ok. First the monument.

what's the story behind this monument?

But I will say nothing. Look at the photos:

1. what is so grotesque about this building?.

That is the theatre GROTESKA which specialises in performances for children

but stages plays for adults too:

Well given what looks like a machine gun nest and a big metal door with what looks like barbed wire on top, I would guess it is a prison?

No, they only look so but aren`t in fact.

I waited til 8/1/09 to get mine. They were sent on 19/11/08. WTF?

That is the Polish Post Office. Go to the thread 3 Things which make me mad in Poland and complain. :):):)

What and why?

National Aids day?

How much did I pay for removing the clamp off my tire?

Half a cabbage?
I think this is a trick question and it is not money?
Perhaps yopu had to pay by giving a lift to somebody?

What and where?

Refill your beer , in someone's house?

Why are the lamps in class special to me?

Because one landed on you while you were having your first kiss?

What and where?

Tricky,
white board on the left.
X-mas tree in the background.
A dinner nicely laid on the right.
Straw in the foreground.
A shopping trolly but is more likely just being used as a container....

And it is not for X-mas? hmmm
For Children who did not get their birthday presents?

It has to be something to do with Christmas...? no???

syfon.. ;) woda mineralna...

Yes. Syfon was used in 1960s and 70s to produce sparkling water. Very funny device.

As for bottles, they were used for orangade and had hermetic caps to keep bubbles within.

if it's personal, how should we know?

I count on your intelligence. :):):)
Such lamps have been used here for 30 years or more. I remember them from my childhood school times.

pawian:
What and why?

National Aids day?

NO, a protection against bad spells.

Half a cabbage?
I think this is a trick question and it is not money?
Perhaps yopu had to pay by giving a lift to somebody?

No, I had my car clamped because there is no-stop sign next to the Philharmonic society. I paid 100 zlotys.

Tricky,
It has to be something to do with Christmas...? no???

This was Christmas decoration called szopka in a church.

The photo comes from the Muzeum of AK in Kraków. I visit it regularly.
