What ever happened to piwo EB?
when I was a child in Warszawa it was everywhere but haven't seen it for years (I just randomly came across some ads on YouTube which made me remember it)? I was always curious as it had an Aussie Coat of Arms on the logo.

wow this is bigger than i thought!
Notmanu is my Dad Michał (opposing my username heh)
after I told him of this thread, he would know alot more about this issue
Cougar, Kyrylo is my grandfather btw
Oh, i have also recently read of a Jack Skolnik who was associated with Victorian Football (soccer) and the set up of a league for migrant clubs in the 1940's. I think he represented the Hakoah (jewish) club as president.... this is outlined in the book Soccer Boom: The Transformation of Victorian Soccer Culture 1945-1963
I wondered if this name was also somehow related

Hej Polishforum,
I've wondered about my surname for a long time, as it is extremely rare, even for Poles.
Anyway i was wondering if it translated to anything or related to another word similar?
Some background to provide any help:
My grandfather on my Dad's side with the surname was originally Ukraniain from the Jaroslaw area (now Poland), my babscia had the surname Kot (cat) from the areas around Gora Kalwaria and Stoczek Lukowski. Anyway, I remember my father telling me he had cousins from another uncle or whatnot (who i have never met, not sure if really related) here in Australia with a different spelling, Szkilnyk, but either of the 2 spelling of the name have probably been converted over from cyrilic Ukranian spelling. Another spelling i have seen is Szkolnik.
Also, i used to live in Warszawa at Primary school age, and remember a Polish artist there with the same spelling, as well as seeing a plumber or window glazer on the way to the airport with the same spelling Szkilnik , so there are a few out there!
Dziekuje
