News / SHOULD POLAND HAVE NUKES?? [154]

no, of course Poland doesn't need nukes - The North Atlantic Treaty Organisation states that "it will come to the assistance of...with all means necessary, including the use of nuclear weapons........."

Simple enough for anybody - especially the Russkis.[/quote]

News / Poles are getting rich... [63]

Nothing surprising there - as in every society. A certain amount of supply and demand, speculation - above all - location, location, location, more oversees earnings, more management buy-outs, restructurisation, salary increases for the professional classes to approx 40 per cent ( or higher in some key areas) of Western Europe.

It's all good - I get to meet some middle class nouveau riche as clients - but they seem to wear it well, and it has to be good news.

Probably yes? There are less Russian boys dying out there now right? :) That's a great investment.

Of course - you could always lerave the Chechens to get on with their own affairs in their own country.

Just a thought.

What? I said that Poland has great inner city deprivation and should not be wasting my taxes on arresting a Chechan leader in exile on the whim of the Russians - but should actually be doing something more worthwhile.

Such as demolishing and rebuilding it's inner cities.

I thought my opinion was clear Pwian.

Disgraceful that the bloke was ever arrested and it makes Poland the laughing stock - as ever. When is this country going to get to grips with it's inner city deprivation and severe social problems and stop punching above it's weight.

Sick and tired of waiting for some action.

Life / Polish "prog" music? I'd be interested to know about bands etc. [30]

I can only think of the Silesian Blues Band and Collage straight up - Not popular any more really, mores's the pity.

Poland needs a Steve Hillage.

Concert venues have been killed off for the likes of me in Poland becasue you cant drink - the Spodek for example in Katowice, runs Poland's biggest "blues" festival - but no beer is permitted.

It's a joke.

And yes mods - that is ON TOPIC - even for you people in the USA who dont value the importance of beer (not having anything drinkable) Lol

PS Fleetwood Mac were not prog rock - they were bluesmen.

UK, Ireland / Advantages of living in Poland as opposed to the UK. [126]


Who wants strong liver rotting sugar fermented beer? 20 bottle case of Budweiser Budwar 49.40 at Lidl while stocks last. Czech beer at rock bottom Polish prices.

30 quid or 138 zlotys in Britain.

Also better weather, national forests and free access to upland - stupid laws on camping though which are to be ignored at every opportunity.

No country is perfect!
