I just spotted this flag raised above a house at the end of our street.
Good for them; a simple sign of support for the Ukrainians, but very poignant.

Optimistic Cro!
The difference between an optimist and a pessimist, is that the optimist enjoys himself whilst waiting for the inevitable! I AM that optimist!

About Me
- Cro Magnon
- I was born just south of London, but for the past 50 years I've lived in S W France. I am a painter by profession, and writer by desire. Lady Magnon and I live between an ancient cottage in a tiny village in perfectly tranquil French countryside, and a bijou townhouse in Brighton UK. In France we have plenty of fruit trees, all situated amongst a view that takes the breath away, in the UK we have a handkerchief sized patio. We also have a Border Collie called Billy. I try to treat our planet with respect, and encourage others to do likewise (without preaching). Contentment is a glass of red, a plate of charcuterie, and a slice of good country bread. Perfect!
There are a few round here too.
ReplyDeleteIf only ordinary Russians knew how much international support Ukraine now enjoys and how reviled Putin has become. The yellow section of the flag symbolises Ukraine's golden wheat fields and the richness of the earth.
ReplyDeleteThe Ukrainian flag is a good show of support. I'm looking to fly one on my property next to my American flag.
ReplyDeleteI'm in the process of making tiny paper ones to put in my potplants on the front porch.
