Then it means sb didn`t cook them properly. I have them a few times a year - when boiled long enough, they are delicate and soft like golonka. I either have them for big dinners or slice onto a sandwich. The tissue in them is regular meat, just take a look:

Wow, a fascinating story about eel, thanks.

Here, due to its scarcity, eel has always been very expensive - the most of all.

Ooops, in a famous Polish comedy naturalisation meant sex change operation. Did they do it to you too?

When in the UK, I would probably also miss smoked eel, my fav, because of delicate fragrant meat. I read that eel isn`t appreciated in Britain. Is it true?

Brudnicka is connected with brud - dirt, filth. Imagine the name Joe Dirtnick - how does it sound?

That`s a little manipulation if unexplained.

Third, the large majority of children of same-sex couples from the 2000 census were children from prior heterosexual relationships; thus, most of the children being raised by same-sex couples at the time of the 2000 census had previously lived through divorce or parental break-up, which research has shown to be traumatic for some children

Yes, of course, the most delicious meat that melts on the tongue. But it floats in fat and that puts many people off.

No, all who quoted you perfectly understood your intentions. E.g., I said that most locals do it on the initiative of their parish priest.

My mum always repeated that a true male must eat true male dishes: tatar raw beef steak, tripe and golonka. I had refused to eat flaki until the day I came back hungry as a wolf from a kayaking practice - there was only tripe on the menu and I devoured two bowls - I was 13 years old.

Today I relish all three dishes in honour of my long gone mum.

Why are LGBT free zones controvercial in Poland?
Coz they remind people of German Nazi laws which banned Jews or Poles from certain places in occupied Poland: public transport or parks.

Johhny, do you know that 6 million Polish citizens perished under Nazi and Soviet occupation during WW2? Why do you support old occupants` regulations in a new array by rightard rulers of Poland?

• 
  No entry to the park for Jews
  
• 
  No entry for Poles and dogs

  Only for Germans

They put it, take a photo and take it down to go to another place which adopted the zone. So, even if sued, they will be absolved due to low criminality of the act.

Actually, it is your own fault. Instead of developing the topic as the title says, you are publicly dreaming about concentration camps for gays. Admit you are only able to commence sth but leading it into on-topic progress is beyond your capabilities. The reason is you know too little about Poland.

Youy`d better not start new threads if you don`t know how to run them. Simple.
Ha!
