UK, Ireland / (Polish man murdered in Belfast) RIP Piotr Michna [53]

This is very sad.

news.bbc.co.uk/1/hi/northern_ireland/8372040.stm

I knew the man who was murdered although not very well.

He worked in a local supermarket close to my home, he was a really nice guy & seemed quite a quiet person although always friendly and smiling. We would pass each other on our way to work most mornings & i would also see him occasionally out shopping with his girlfriend (i work close to where he lived).

He was a really popular guy with the customers & staff where he worked and everyone is very shocked and sad to hear of his untimely death, he was the last person you would have expected something like this to happen to.

I was told today in work that the other dead man is a family member so this would seem to be a dreadful double blow for his family and loved ones, i wont speculate on what may have happened because we dont have all the facts, all i will say is everyone i have spoken to about Piotr over the past 24 hours had good things to say about him, Many many people on the Ormeau Road (where he worked in a busy store) would have known him to say hi to in the street and i know he will be sadly missed.

Deepest sympathy to any family or friends who may read this. Even though i didnt know him very well i was really upset when i heard the news. Tragic.

UK, Ireland / Polish Festivals/Exhibitions/Events in UK [91]

Polish cultural week kicks off again in Belfast next month.

I laughed when i read the second last paragraph, that should be a funny debate, lol.

[b]A Polish Cultural Week is being held in Belfast in May. It was launched as part of 'Polska! Year' at the Ormeau Baths Gallery yesterday in the presence of Barbara Tuge Erycinska, Polish Ambassador to the UK, and Belfast Lord Mayor Tom Hartley.
