Just to add a bit of historical information to this thread.
In 1966 I got a job with Ace Freighters at Coventry Airport.
Myself and another chap got accomodation in a wooden hut
complex that had been set up to provide a small individual room
for people that had been employed in Coventry during the War.
I suppose there were rooms for about 150 to 200 individuals
in the huts.
Of the remaining people that lived in the place there were some
40 to 50 Poles living there.
They were people that had obviously managed to escape from
Poland and had settled in the UK.
I used to feel quite sorry for them because, at that stage, they had
NO chance at all of getting back to Poland.
I often wonder what became of them after the collapse of Communism.
The place was called Chace Hostel, or something like that.
