UK, Ireland / A collection of noimmigration's threads or "STAY AWAY from BRITAIN" [978]


It doesn't seem clear but the whole things stems from immigrants outside of the EU. I was listening to something about this on the radio this morning.

noimmigration - the reason they want a cap in Scotland is because of the rapid growth in population and they've made a forward prediction. It's more about the future rather than the here and now. Right now we do need the immigrant population.

Thanks. They turned out better than what I expected. :)


It's a bit of a "PD style" sauce but it's similar to



this one here. I didn't use bacon, cheese or the mushrooms though. :)

Thanks pgt.

Question: what is the best way to re-heat them?

Food / Polish food in Pictures. [277]

Seems like a good idea. Someone else told me to fry them a little or grill them. I think oven is better though. :)

I'll post more pictures when I make more. So I hope to see a few other pictures on here ;)

So do I which is why I have started trying to cook some Polish dishes now. I have a few ideas of what my next experiment might be! :)


I do apologise. :) I waited until after I'd eaten tonight before I posted this thread :)

Food / Polish food in Pictures. [277]

They were quite difficult and it took me a while but I wanted to cook them because I liked the idea of them. I'm glad they look good, thanks. :) I didn't look at any pictures of them until after I cooked (and eaten some of) them. It was a good way to spend a rainy Friday afternoon. :)

Good because there were none. Who knows why they stayed together? Some of them didn't as the first picture shows.

McPardon? All my thoughts on football and my predictions are from me own mind and views. :) You're just sore because you got beat by a girl... ;) hehehe ;)

Edit: It's true, sausage and I are joint 2nd. :)

It was szarlotka who wrote about 1500 posts being blown away.

Off-Topic / PF - The Omnibus Edition [1502]

If it appeared under his name...he wrote it. He didn't attribute it to anyone else.

Off-Topic / PF - The Omnibus Edition [1502]

Well, he said it was a "guest" but if that person remains anonymous then the post goes under szarlotka's name. He then ends up putting up with whatever is said about that post.

Lukasz, what now? This the OT section, so it's expected that discussion will not be about POLAND.

Off-Topic / PF - The Omnibus Edition [1502]


Har har :)


So he's a Polish lawyer? Or you're threatening us? :)

Off-Topic / PF - The Omnibus Edition [1502]

Vincent, you did a great job of being guest writer in the omnibus edition. :) Perhaps you and szarlotka could share the task in future? :)

Me being joint 2nd in the football thread is a temporary glitch and be assured that after the next round of matches order will be restored and I'll be languishing in about 10th place if not lower. ;) Unless I do my homework properly and knock jbman flying from the top! :)

The next guest contributor to the PF Omnibus? Who knows? ;)

Off-Topic / PF - The Omnibus Edition [1502]

Thanks Vincent. :) Actually I am surprised by how well I did in that round, if you recall in the Euro 2008 threads my predictions were awful! ;) Maybe I will be there in the next round. :)

Helena Rubinstein, cosmetics, born in Krakow and eventually became Elizabeth Arden's biggest rival. She made millions and her cosmetics are still a world best seller.

Sorry I don't know too much more about her off the top of my head. If you google her there will be plenty about her. :)

Life / Famous / Iconic Polish Women [43]

I wonder if you can still get that perfume.


I kind of thought you were after something like that but I can't think of anyone at the moment. Helena sprang into mind when I read "famous" and of course "iconic" made me think of Marie Curie but I see Grzegorz already posted a link about her. :)

Good post Miranda, but one thing:


It's alive and well and has never been inactive. :)

Possibly Admin was working on something at the time. It's alive and kicking though. :)

OK, picture of the most recent attempt at gołąbki. :) Mushroom sauce this time and boiled potatoes. :)

Food / Polish food in Pictures. [277]

Thanks for the tip. I much prefer mushroom sauce. So far I can only make a sauce which is enough to cover the gołąbki but I have seen pictures of them soaking in sauces. I will try in future. :)

Food / Polish food in Pictures. [277]

Believe it or not I do use a deep dish and I pour water into the bottom before covering with foil. When I made those ones in my second lot of pictures I didn't add any further water.

I made them again today and added more water at the beginning so when I checked them 1/2 way and then 3/4 way through they didn't require any addtional water as there was still adequate left in the bottom of the dish and they weren't burnt at all. (Now I wish I had taken a picture of these ones. ;)

I read your tip about the sauce and decided against it, most of the people who are eating them here prefer them only with ketchup. I prefer them with mushroom sauce so I just add that when serving. Perhaps in the future I'll try your way. I'll be giving the gołąbki a rest for a while though as I have a new dish to try! ;)

Thanks for the tips ;)

(Currently I am making cabbage soup ;)

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


How did you get out?!


I doubt you actually "hate" them. Hate is a very strong emotion and I seriously doubt you feel that at all for Poland or for Polish people. Hate is reserved for dictators and murderers and rapists (for example).

You may dislike Polish people and you may even dislike an entire nation but perhaps you'd like to provide an in depth reasoning as to why? Never mind saying they are toilet cleaners or any of that other nonsense you come out with. If you have a legitimate dislike of all things Polish then please explain it fully, without swearing, without silly pictures and without blaming them for all that is wrong with this country (actually it's the government that's wrong with this country and not the people living here).

lol - so how are you getting along with the Anniversary Edition?

Exactly, there's Vincent slaving his guts out. What's szarlotka doing? Polishing his golf clubs probably... :)

Off-Topic / PF - The Omnibus Edition [1502]

Not very well apparently! ;)

Food / Polish food in Pictures. [277]


I didn't make the mushroom sauce in the those pictures but when I do make it I use a recipe similar to this one here but with my own secret ingredient. ;)

I don't bake the gołąbki in the sauce though because I like them with only a little sauce on them. :)
