@EL - Yes to all of the above. I'm lurking intermittently, not least because family are visiting, but also I feel like the Giant in Wilde's fairy tale, "The Selfish Giant", having visited a fellow Giant in Cornwall over seven years, I've said everything I had to say . . .

The news, as M.M. states below, is more appalling by the day. I feel helpless and outraged and the sensations are so uncomfortable that I'm trying for distance between posts and bulletins. (That goes for the OTHER story we follow, I'm so out of patience with it all and I feel as if I keep going round in circles. But I AM paying attention.)

Stay well, all. That is, stay sane. And, as always, many thanks to EL for carrying out the duty to history. TC

Each day the news is more horrific and appalling than the day before. As E-L has stated, "The Russians want to destroy the land and the livelihoods of the Ukrainians"; under the guise of liberating them.
