Well you never know who you will meet up there and it turned out to be a good idea as we met two young lassies from the local climbing club. They liked my soup :)

Love pigeon, easily available around these parts due to the farmers shooting them. Great with red currant jelly :)

It isnt life. life only starts when those cells make enough to think for themselves. It will always be and only be up to the mother to decide.

You may not have anything to say on the matter, but if the woman is of a decent kind then she would take in the impact it would have on you if she aborted.

Life / Moving To Krakow May (a place to live and work?) [48]

I know plenty of successful people in Krakow who don't speak a word of Polish. Though learning the language will make things a lot easier for you in the long run.

Work / Companies within Poznan (positions available for native English speakers) [18]


I'm sure he will know that from personal experience.

Maybe starting a thread with advice for ex-pats looking for work in Poznan, would be more useful.

Delph, is this really something you REALLY need to be commenting on?
Apart from posting the bleeding obvious, if you aren't gonna offer him some kind of job or advice then why comment at all?
It sounds a lot like you are trying with the hard push to sell your mates position of work.

UK, Ireland / Poles 'failing to integrate in the UK'? [58]


Most common vodka is Glens, made in Ayrshire Scotland, its good if u want to get drunk, but for taste not so.

UK, Ireland / Poles 'failing to integrate in the UK'? [58]


No the Czechs and Poles. IMO
English real ale is good, but as a standard beer you cant get better than the Polish stuff. In Scotland our mainstream beer is Tennents, its ******* awful only those homeless dossers would drink it. Same with Bells whisky, that in Poland goes for about 25-30 pln a glass....... god awful crap!

UK, Ireland / Poles 'failing to integrate in the UK'? [58]

Oh Hudson, why wont you just take your flamming to other places. If anyone is accused of not integrating it will be the Brits abroad.

Mind to wipe the sh1t of the soap before you use it for ur ass.

UK, Ireland / Poles 'failing to integrate in the UK'? [58]

A few do. But when you question them they soon back down. Usually it's my friends cant find jobs because the foreigners work for less and have taken them all. Then I normally point out the Poles at work and they agree that they do brilliant. Though I'm in a specialised field, our Polish carers do a great job. Also a lot of my staff are also in the same boat so actually understand where the Poles are coming from e.g moving for work.

It's summer so we have taken on a few Polish students for these months knowing they will be leaving soon. We can't offer short term work to most of the locals as they are not prepared to do it. And the ones who do generally want longer term positions that we can't cover. Our full-time positions are all taken, but they get resentful towards the end of their contracts and start kicking up crap if we can't offer them full time placements.

UK, Ireland / Poles 'failing to integrate in the UK'? [58]


The Poles might have been eating kebabs, I doubt the Brits would have been forced to. We eat the stuff when drunk :D

I must admit that I have a few social nights with the local Poles, but I'm the only Scot to be invited or even be talked to at work. Thing is integrating goes both ways. My Polish co-workers were happy to chat away when they found out I lived in Poland for so long. Before that they would either not talk or be too scared to loosen up as I was their boss. lol
