Life / Rising cost of food across the globe. How much is a weekly shop in Poland now in 2013. [53]

we are shopping for two of us

a 3 bedroom house where i live costs around £1500 a month rent before bills

If you're going to live in one the most expensive parts of the UK, then having one or more spare bedrooms does seem like a bit of an extravagance does it not? Or perhaps you have lodgers, in which case your rent isn't really £1500.

1 Avocado £1, small pack of blue berries £2, chicken to roast £5, 4 btls badoit water £3.50

I don't think you can really count avocado, blueberries, and premium brand bottled water as staple foods. I'm all for being able to choose luxury products, I spend a large percentage of my income (in Poland) on things like wine, quality tea and coffee, but in the end that's all they are - luxuries which I could, and probably should, do without. I hate to think how much an avocado would cost in Poland.

Life / Any good Polish movies that are not drama/ war ?? [21]

Wesele, it was made about 2004 I think, and it's a hilarious insight into rural Polish culture (it contains a wedding, violence, sex, and all the vodka you could ever wish for).

Travel / Skiing Near Wrocław? [11]

Wow, thanks for your help. Zieleniec looks rather good, and google maps says it's only four hours from Poznań so I think we'll give that a go. I'll let you know how it went.

Travel / Skiing Near Wrocław? [11]

Does anyone have any advice on places to ski near Wrocław? I've heard that places on the border with Cz. Rep. are quite good and accessible, is this true? I'm in Poznan and have a car, so a weekend skiing somewhere south of Wrocław would make sense.
