After Love

 

Twenty five thousand people in the UK have officially said that they would support a Ukrainian person in their own homes. 
And that is in three hours. 
No matter the cynicism, or the red tape, or the potential problems that can be thrown into the melting pot .
It’s an impressive number.

I listened to this news as I was driving home on an extra long diversion on the dreaded A 55
As I zigzagged through country roads with barn owls swooping over the hedge tops nearby.
I also heard the news that welsh actress Joanna Scanlon won the BAFTA for best actress for After Love
I wanted to Twitter her a congratulation message but couldn’t find her when I got home
I was made up for her.

Lovely days off now.

  3. I hope the government follows up with support, not just financial, but schooling, medical and emotional support.
    Enjoy the free time. xx

  4. I don't think my house is orderly enough for inspection-I would enjoy the film as I had several boyfriends who were Muslim-I was persuaded by my Uncle that it was not a good idea for me to continue with my choices x

  8. Wonderful that at the age of sixty, Joanna Scanlan has secured such an award. It has been a long journey for her so the BAFTA Success must taste all the sweeter.

    How wonderful that so many people are offering rooms to Ukrainian refugees! Wish we had the space to do that, too.
    Welcome home to you and am glad you have some days off work to enjoy.

    Hugs!

  12. I too am pleased for Joanne, she's one of those wonderful actresses whose face is known by us all, but probably not her name. I hope this improves her public profile.

  14. Yesterday it was over 44,000. They still have to apply for a visa online though. A friend of mine has a Ukrainian wife and today he sets out overland to try and rescue her parents, who are still there but have been travelling for days to reach the border. He still has had no advice from the Home Office.

  15. My husband left me for another lady, I was heart broken and devastated. But on a good day, I was scrolling through facebook when I saw a lady testifying about Dr Moses, so I decided to contact him and he helped me to restore my broken relationship and now my husband is back. I’m so grateful and thankful to Dr Moses Ehichioya. My husband loves me far more than I can ever imagine now. If you are going through similar situations don't hesitate to contact Dr Moses.
