ha ha that made me laugh. that is so recently! its like 5 minutes ago. oh gawd its amazing, did you type that with a straight face? if you havent been to Poland since then, you really have no idea what its like anymore.


I wonder if Jaruzelski has fulfilled your expectations in government or the party is going to dismiss him.

I feel bad for you. You missed the real Krakow. I have been there now for increasingly longer visits the last three years, and intend to return as often as possible. I have not even come close to seeing all the "Must see" tourist venues, but the Polish people have been fantastic. I have been invited to homes, for meals and for several days as a guest by several families who I met in places like milk bars. I have never experienced such warm hospitality any other place and I am nearly 70 years old. My suggestion, learn a few phrases of Polish and show some respect, I think you will have different interactions. By the way, I am not Polish by blood, my forbears are Brits, but I am now Polish in my heart. Great country, Krakow truly magic city, Polish people and culture, unique and admirable.

I was in Krakow very recently and do know what is like. I even visited Bochnia by train at the same time. It was 1985 or 1986.

And that's exactly what I said - you were in Poland an epoch ago. The Poland you remember doesn't even exist anymore. You keep on Posting about some long gone country.

And I guess you still consider yourself young and beautifull too. After all you may have been 20 years ago, so what could have changed, right?

I was in Krakow last July and discovered that exposure of westerners through massive tourism has seriously damaged foreigners' reputation among polish girls.


Don't worry mate, polish girls say that Brits can find themself (i don't know if that is a proper word). You know, even if British guys coming for stag parties are rude, drunk etc. they have clean, ironed clothes etc. ;)

I have noticed this, could it be that their mothers / wives / girlfriends ensure they are well turned out :)

Mind you, there are some very strange and nasty people that come from that town. We have some fine spescimins in Guildford.

Or at least how do you know they are from 'that town'?
What is 'that town', by the way?

And you can just sense this without speaking to them or doing more than just considering them to be...

Isn't Kraków a city rather than a town?

I think the term 'that town' was written by you somewhere above, they certainly were not my words.

The 'town' I was referring to was Guildford, which is a town and not a city.

I do not live in Kraków, I live in Guildford. Guildford is a town in the county of Surrey. Get your facts right.

Gee Michal, When Arizona Yankee says that Krakow is a truly magic city, and you reply that strange and nasty people come from that town, what fact am I misinterpreting? Or what fact did you misinterpret in your reply to Arizona Yankee? And yes, it is a well known fact on the forum that you are from Guildford, to which Arizona Yankee made no reference in his earlier post.
