How remarkable to see the American President walking through Kyiv while air raid sirens sound. I'm not sure what that signals but it's a brave thing for anyone to do https://twitter.com/ZelenskyyUa/status/1627631915263004672
On our morning walk we meet the secretary of the local council. She is out walking her two Jack Russells. They have been joined on their walk by a third Jack Russell which belongs to the couple in the cottage facing the village hall. I've never seen or met these people as they have old newspapers piled up in their windows. The three Jack Russells greet Sophie then rush off in pursuit of some crows. Someone has chained a bike to the bus stop. It's been there since Friday night. The secretary of the local council says the police aren't interested. This, Angus thinks to himself, is not really surprising. 'It's an orange mountain bike' she adds. A red metallic Vauxhall Corsa has been parked blocking the track that leads to the turnip field. It has also been there since Friday. 'Joy riders' says the secretary of the local council with a vehemence that implies blocking the track to the turnip field is a miscreants dream.
After that our Monday morning is quiet ...
With technology dogs will need to find new excuses :https://video.nest.com/clip/3db4b191f107447b8625e2587f973456.mp4

Some dogs can be so snooty!
The heated jacket is a fine idea - a bit like wearing an electric blanket, from whence the idea came, no doubt. don't think it will feature at London Fashion Week.
My goodness, what an exciting start Sophie has to her Monday mornings. Unlike ours, which are eased into very gently. Indi is catching up on her naps before we venture out later for our morning walk - it's only 7ºC, so far too cold right now.
The heated jacket made me laugh - whatever next! I hope it doesn't get so cold here that I'll need one.
Nobby has watched the Nest Cam video carefully, and spotted plenty of opportunity for a crime wave to rival the one that hit your village over the weekend.
A 2/10 croissant? That must have been REALLY bad.
A serene and peaceful life, for the Star and her companion.

Your 'predendum' noted. Given the post I made today, and some of the comments made by Putin in a recent BBC doco, I can't quite decide whether this is brave or falls into one or other of foolhardy or provocative. Perhaps all three... Yxx
Thank you for the Ukraine link. Having at last reestablished our internet service, I'm looking forward to following your links. What a busy start to Sophie's day!
Sophie: Dogs to the left of me, dogs to he right, here I am: stuck in the muffle with you!!
So proud of President Biden for undertaking this journey to Ukraine.
