On Sunday we took up Susan's invitation to join in a picnic organised jointly by Claise ConneXion and AARST, the local association for supporting Ukrainian refugees. It was an opportunity to meet some of the families directly affected by the war in Ukraine. I say families but of course there were no male members as they have stayed behind to protect their country. It was sad to listen to one young woman's personal experiences and it brought home the futility of this 'war'.
There were some lighter moments with people bringing a dish from their own country in a show of solidarity...and they were yummy!
