General Władysław Sikorski 's Exhumation

To be honest I was a little surprised when I heard about the exhumation of Sikorski. As you may recall, he was the leader of the Polish Government-in-exile during WW2 and died in a plane crash off Gibralta in 1943. There have always been theories and counter-theories about his death. Some point to Stalin, while others point to Britain. What they all agree on however, is the fact that the plane carrying the Polish Prime Minister crashed in the Med.

Therefore I am unsure as to what is expected. If the plane was sabotaged, or had a bomb on it, then the body will unlikley show signs of this. I stand to be corrected, but feel this will turn out to be an expensive waste of time.

The PM has resently said that Poland should be ready to meet all the criteria for accepting the Euro by 2011. I must admit that i was a little surprised by this as iexpected it a little latter. However, i am pleased as it will help Poland to further integrate with the rest of the EU. I just wish that the UK would do the same!!!

I am pro-EU and yet patriotic. This dicotomy often leaves me with a confused headache, yet if push came to shove, then i would always favioutr closer integration of the EU.

I'm still wondering

I have been a way from the world of blogs for a long time. My summer has as usual been eventfull and i am now settled back at work ready to begin the madness that is a year as an English teacher in Poland. In terms of scandal and stories I don't really have much to offer you at present as i have also kept my nose out of Lodz and Poland's business. That said i will endevour to dig something up for you in the not to distant future.
