I was in Cyprus about 15 years ago and kept getting mistaken as a local i.e. locals spoke to me in Greek.....freaked them out when I spoke Polish to em, especially the police he he!

Life / 80s Polish TV Shows [26]

Goonie

What about your avatar and the 2 fine fellows in it 'Bolek i Lolek', not from the 80's as such, but repeated very often as I spent every summer up to the age of 18 in Poland, and remember them being on more or less, every time I was there.....spent the full school hols. there 6-8 weeks each visit.

And also 'Czterej pancerni i pies' (Four tank men and a dog)...OK, not from the 80's (made 1966 :) and it was in black and white), but again repeated a lot when I was there during the 80's.

BTW, Szarik (meaning a ball in Russian, in Polish the word is similar to Szary meaning Gray), was the name of the German Shepherd...:)
