Some of the newpapers print sections in Polish, Polish books in the bookshops, etc.

On the upside is the supermarkets, you can get really nice Polish beer and bread in any Dublin supermarket. Much better than that muck Irish folks call bread.

All the Polish pickled vegetables are a bit weird...

Oh yeah, if you're every visiting Ireland and see a beautiful Irish lass, she's probably Polish...
I find this absolutely hilarious! (and not in a disrespectful way)
