Australia / Thinking about moving to Australia [39]


whereabouts bolek?

you need to get out to the burbs with a creek running through it...i can remember one of the teachers smashing a tiger snake with a baseball bat when it entered the school grounds. and i have seen a few others growing up. but dnz, that is over a span of 36 years.


you forgot the best sport in the world:


i dont know about sydney, but melbourne ranges between 8-13 degrees during winter and it usually gets dark say around 5pm. no where near the 4pm dark i experienced in scotland.

do you live in melbourne bolek?

this troll lives in the usa and seems like his education is not up too par.

when i was in the uk, all i was asked about were bugs, spiders and snakes. people are fascinated with it.

you're load that should have been swallowed.


you're more likely to be hit by a hoon in a ford/holden (gmh) here than be eaten by sharks.

are you going to reside in sydney for the longer term?

just for your info as well, generally the smaller a spider is the more potent it is. a small white tail spider will do more damage (not kill you) than a huntsman the size of your hand.

check the guys posts, 90% involve slagging australia off and the other 10% slagging poland off.


sydney, melbourne, adelaide are from over populated when compared to major cities around the world.

perth may have less humidity, but the 35+ degrees at 8am are killers.

Australia / Any nice Polish people in Perth? [78]

im sure the swan merges into the margaret river...we went on a wine cruise that started in the swan.

good ole boozy memories.

Australia / Just got home to Australia, but I miss Poland! [47]


yep, that is them.

did you go and see them minus the "poles" at the st kilda fest?

Australia / How to import my car to Australia from Poland? [26]


perth has a cbd??

what is NOR?

why did you choose perth? it is quite possibly the hottest place in australia.

Australia / Any nice Polish people in Perth? [78]


no idea..must be like a new estate/village.

Australia / How to import my car to Australia from Poland? [26]


ahhh, james, what has australia done to you?

you can buy the pt cruisers here.

you're better off selling the car, and either buying one in australia or living in the innercity and using public transport.

History / "Poland's Concentration Camp" ?? [570]

yeah, there are racists in every country and closet.

unfortunately, the lebanese immigrants in australia are what turkish immigrants are to europe. but thats off topic, so carry on.

all aussies are leb bashers?

Australia / Polish bakery in St Kilda, Melbourne [3]

they are jewish-polish no?

i think there maybe another on the same strip.

and schzerade restaurant is also on the strip.

when are you coming?

bad news, the rights to top gear have been bought by a commercial network and as asikia said we have ads a plenty. it could have the potential to ruin the show.

im also not sure how up to date it will be.

Australia / Just got home to Australia, but I miss Poland! [47]

we can get bbc news and uk tv, but only through pay tv.

Australia / Just got home to Australia, but I miss Poland! [47]


it is expensive but considering the closest polish clubs to us are scumshine, dandewog or rowville it is what we deal with it.

yeah, i was at vic mkt 2 weeks ago and was told by a store owner for touching the peaches. i promptly went to safeway/coles to do the rest of my vegie/fruit shopping.

i live in the norf, so i shop at psarokos.

for fun, usually go for drinks after work on a friday. not much else really.

mine was a rhetorical question.

Australia / Just got home to Australia, but I miss Poland! [47]

you live in southbank from memory?

if you're looking for fruit, veg, fish, meats, etc then try the south melbourne/victoria markets.

the victoria one even has a polish deli, just dont get sucked into buying the pierogi there.

coles/safeway are the best for the other things.

Australia / Finding work on Prospective marriage visa, Melbourne ( subclass 300 ) [30]

i have seen many ads on seek specify that applicants have to be aus/nz residents.

maybe more red tape involved in employing non citizens.

maybe there are quota's to be filled.

UK, Ireland / Recently beaten up in England by 3 Polish guys [93]


i dont think this is exclusive to poles or pawels...the only times I have seen two men fight was back in high school. nowadays it is 2 or more onto 1, the only one on one fights involving one party knifing or glassing the other party.

asik

all good points.

it may all change when you eventually marry in the next month.

Australia / Finding work on Prospective marriage visa, Melbourne ( subclass 300 ) [30]


you should reference the terms of your visa?

if it is anything like the working holiday visa for commonwealth nationals then you can only work for 6 months out of the 12 months you're here.

you have worked 4 out of the 6 months, so that probably would put off employers looking for 6 month contractor/permanent.

your best bet is to seek cash paid work (bar/restaurant/cleaning/etc), even if it is just to get out of the house/apartment/flat.

go outside and get some fresh air!!!

next question.

Australia / Polish Culture in Melbourne, Australia [87]

try this site, but the people may not be in your age range: dziuplamelbourne.com

there are also monthly (sometimes once every 2 months) polish dances, but it would be hard meeting new people there. but you never know.

Australia / Just got home to Australia, but I miss Poland! [47]

i grew up here, so i have an advantage.

what you need to know?

Australia / Just got home to Australia, but I miss Poland! [47]

ive survived 37 years!!!

Australia / Finding work on Prospective marriage visa, Melbourne ( subclass 300 ) [30]

you could always take up some bar/restaurant work until you find something permanent.

your dad and mine would drink them dry.

im not sure they would do a private dinner for 9 people.

Australia / Meeting Poles in Adelaide [15]

i think adelaide has the biggest polish community in australia....google polish clubs/restaurants in adelaide and you should get a number of places.

i even think there are some previous threads on this very subject.

Life / Lack of Spacial Acuity in Poland [69]

it happens everywhere...try walking in the city in australia and you're likely to bump into someone who just randomly stops (generally asian) or people walking 3-4 abreast the pavement.
