BACK IN THE USSR IN ACADEMY STREET CORK - MAY 2011

BACK IN THE USSR ACADEMY STREET - MAY 2011

Apparently this is (or was) a Polish shop.

I tried to translate the information below but the Google translation did not make a lot of sense. Anyway, I did not notice the shop when I last visited in May 2019.

Niespelna miesiac temu powstal w irlandzkim Cork trzeci z kolei "ruski" sklep :-) o wdziecznej nazwie "Back in the USSR"- tyle ze nastawiony przede wszystkim na obsluge polskich klientow.

Ba, nawet na malym szyldzie zawieszonym zaraz przed szyldem "glownym" napisano wrecz: "Polski Sklep" (ten mniejszy szyld zaznaczylem na zdjeciu bialym kolkiem - niestety, jest on prawie nieczytelny).
No, polski to on jeszcze nie jest. Obsluga jest - podobnie jak w dwoch poprzednich - rosyjskojezyczna :-) ale - juz znaczna czesc towarow znajdujacym sie w nim jest importowana z Polski. Natomiast jest to pierwszy w Cork sklep, ktorego wlasciciele chcac przyciagnac sporo potencjalnych klientow - Polakow, posluzyli sie haslem: "Polski Sklep"...

Back in the U.S.S.R." is a 1968 song by The Beatles (credited to the song writing partnership Lennon/McCartney but primarily written by Paul McCartney) which opens the double-disc album The Beatles, also known as The White Album. It segues into the next song on the album, "Dear Prudence". The song was released as a single in 1976.
