Life / Why Do You Love Poland? [907]

I love Poland because when I lived there, and it took a long time for me to settle, but when I did I made some great friends, who also took along time to become friends, they were suspicious of me and my motives, but they are great friends today. I have friends in Poland who would do anything for me and I for them. That is when you know you have a true friend.

Life / Things that annoy you in Poland. [114]

It will take time to transform poland to western standards.

It's the younger generation which will transform poland, they have totally different views, and of course multi-culturalism, that changes things very quickly.

Life / 3 reasons why you hate Poland. [1049]

Oh an three things?

1. Postal Service
2. Postal Service
3. Postal Service

Yes I know what you mean, something left over from the commuism era! Not a pretty sight is it. Even the Polish will agree will this one, and the Jubilat ex-communist supermarket,if you have had the great experience of this one!

Life / Famous Polish people (that we have actually heard of) [231]

The only thing I dont like about this whole eppisode was that they were shooting down planes and then once the pilots ejected they were coming back in for the kill

Oh that is not so nice, as there is almost a "gentlemans code in the airforce",as to what is deemed to be appropriate when captured", it is usually a national code in the airforce of every country.

Life / Famous Polish people (that we have actually heard of) [231]

and one Polish pilot in particular was an absolute nut case

Yes he was assigned to the Raf. On one particular expedition everyone was briefed that it was too dangerous to fly because of low cloud ( I think), however he ignored these instructions and took off in a spitfire and shot down the German plane. He became a national hero, with the RAF of course.

Life / Why are Poles always so miserable? Why do they never smile? [512]

I approach my soup with an upbeat manner and an open mind, not a feeling that eating soup is a duty one must perform to stay alive.

Gosh that was so funny, I did not realise that you had a sense of humour.

Life / Do you think that Polish people are rude? [951]

if this is so, why are the people of Cambodia so friendly and polite?

They are only after your money ,as a foreigner they see westerners as "walking ATM machines".

Love / They seem nice, but could Polish girls be "gold diggers"? [196]

That was at 22.

22 or l0 you should have been brought up to believe that "nothing is free in life". Respect is everything, and respect means that you respect the person you are with, whatever the age or circumstances.

Love / English Men vs Polish Men [207]

Yeah, we are more friendly up north ;)

Of course we are in the North of England, we take people for what they are, and not how much they have in their wallet. I do anyway, and I could have anyone I wanted(not being big-headed here seriously) but I just love being around genuine great tallented people, who are a good laugh, and know where they come from whatever nationality.

A saying in the north is "you can take the girl out of Newcastle but you cannot take Newcastle out or the girl"

I remember being on a hen party and a "stag was tied up outside a nightclub, in a rather dischevelled state, and my friend went up to the stag party and said "let him go now you T... or else I will Y... you and they did. So much much women power in the North East of England a bit like Poland!

In the end, I became ungrateful, spoiled, and above all, lazy

No if you had an ounce of decency about you and a real man, you would have stopped this in it's infancy. One a "freeloader" always a freeloader. Don't make excuses.

Love / English Men vs Polish Men [207]

Yes I know everyone is different. British men do tend to be less emotional until it is really needed. I remember what Madonna said about Guy Ritchie being an "emotional retard". In a few years time when she has been "dumped" by the 20some lovers she will be falling in to the arms of Guy, stating that he is the only one that understands me. Believe me this will happen. He will become her sole mate, best friend the only person who ever really knew me. All these young "wannabees" will have found there young wanabee lovers.

Thus proviing British is best! sorry.

Love / English Men vs Polish Men [207]

British men not romantic? And what about James Bond then?! ;)

I know not everyone is like James Bond. I think that british men are alot more sincere than other nationalities( by this I mean Irish Welsh and Scottish included). They may not bring bundles of flowers and an excessive amount of chocs, and tell you how beautiful you look everyday, even if you DON'T but they support you when times are hard and they are there when you need them. Surely this proceeds romance or am I wrong?

Off-Topic / What's your connection with Poland? Penpals. [554]

Hunt down and skin the guy who designed the Polish email server system.

Might this be classed as one of lifes little unexpected pleasures, for which the small camera you purchased, and keep in your car may be used!

I would not wait too long for the email to arrive, perhaps you should move on and find another beauty in the midst, by the time you have finished you can be "spouting several countries cultures" depending upon which nationality you choose, and build up a very impressional record!
