Polish is essential for a job in YORKSHIRE??Polish language is a must. The work is taking a place in South Yorkshire area.
Sometimes you're flush and sometimes you're bust, and when you're up, it's never as good as it seems, and when you're down, you never think you'll be up again. But life goes on.
The beauty of a woman is not in the clothes she wears, the figure that she carries, or the way she combs her hair. The beauty of a woman is seen in her eyes, because that is the doorway to her heart, the place where love resides. True beauty in a woman is reflected in her soul. It's the passion that she shows to the outside world.

Poor Cheryl
When I got my kitchen done I actually told my sis,who project managed in a way "No Polish" as I didnt want some fly-by-night dodgy eastern-european operating from a cell-phone number with no accountability should something go wrong on the job,far too many horror stories,if you look at that advert you dont even need to be time-served providing you speak polska "NVQ a bonus" says it all Didnt Breakfast-TV several years ago when we first joined the EU feature a "Polish-builder" who gave building tips each morning(but only for a short while till the number of complaints made them pull the plug on him).

I agree that most Eastern Euro tradesmen are a bit dodgy, but not all of them. I've found myself a really good Serbian Gas Central Heating Engineer. He's fixed various things on my gas boiler and water cylinder during the last 3 years and is a damn site cheaper than most of the larger firms. He's realiable too, if he says he will be here on Monday at 5.00 PM he is here then, not 3 weeks later.
Having said that, he has lived in the Uk since he was 9 as he left Croatia in the early 90's during the war, so he's done all of his studying in the Uk and has been trained to UK standards.
