My grandparents came from Poland - though they emigrated separately in their teens and eventually met and married here, so my mother was born here. I knew my Babci growing up, but never met my grandfather, he died suddenly when my mother was away at college so she didn't make it back in time, he was so proud of her. I'd like to think he was much like this wonderful grandpa in this video.

I get about Brexit, in fact, read somewhere that there were many Poles in Britain and the British prejudice was exercised against them in terms of Brexit.

115,000 (according to 2016 figures), and have integrated well. I just wish more of their kids would play rugby, as I'm certain they would add to what we already have.

so many Eastern Europeans, including Polish, are in the UK, Germany, Iceland, and other Western European countries.
