I think all the shops are Polish around here now! Just joking, there are a few, strangely, the two Turkish shops near here stock many Polish lines.Quote:

It used to be that Maggi products bought in France were much better than the Maggi we got here. A friend would often bring me back Maggi stuff from France, was very good.
Many other shops sell Kucharek, I have bought something similar called "Polish Seasoning" was either in Aldi of Lidl, can't remember which.Quote:

Btw, MAJOR respect for caring for your mum, until she passed away, at the grand old age of 103!:thumbsup:
That's probably the Polish in you, as more often than not Brits just dump their elderly parents in Nursing homes, or such like, when they become 'difficult', as they're too lazy to do the right thing and look after them in their own homes, where they're undoubtedly happiest, until they pass away. In that respect, British families tend not to be as close.
Del and I looked after her elderly parents, one of whom in the end had terminal cancer, and the other dementia, and we'll be doing the same with my dad, when he gets to the stage of not being able to look after himself. For me, it's the least you can do, as your parents looked after you, and made plenty of sacrifices bringing you up as a kid, so the least you can do is repay the debt!:)

told this place is supposedly decent. not been tho
