Thanks - it’s just I didn’t realise that this present ammo fundraiser was giving patches so that’s a treat - I have been lucky to win with the raffle tickets in the past, and will continue supporting the cause - although I have probably used up my luck already 😄

Putin’s master plan, converting gullible ruZZias into pet food whilst trying to stop Ukraine living independently whilst moving onwards and upwards away from the historical squalor that came from being under russian influence and control for so long.

Thanks for the info … well, it’s not a lot by itself but it may help give the edge to some UA soldiers in an engagement … as in … “more steaks make a better barbecue, and even more steaks make it better again”

Most of the older generation adore Putin, I used to hear them say back in the nineties and noughties that they will support him whatever he does - as
“He is the man who paid us our pensions” - even now the older generations are the most supportive of the invasion of Ukraine.
My sympathy is absent.

It is actually heart tending to see kids having to live like this.

Only two children came to the first lesson after a hard night.
And the teacher… let them sleep.
The reality of Ukrainian children.

I imagined that Patel looked like that because someone was intimately molesting him under the lectern… like in the movie Police Academy

And what an amazing piece of parking I witnessed today - the driver actually managed to get the two front wheels INSIDE the marked parking place - just unfortunate that he left the rest of the car sticking out and blocking the roadway.

I take your point - americas next “election” will be a “rubber stamp” election with a 107% turnout and with Trump getting 136% of votes cast as per Lukashenko’s President for Life model.
Welcome to the dictatorship America - and how very easy it was to enact.

The present US situation as viewed from London UK.
I have said since Trump got elected that there will be no 2028 election.
It appears that experienced political analysts are now of the same view.
