...(for a change!)

In a time when the news seems increasingly depressing, I found this story very moving ...

And there's an equally enjoyable sequel ...

Excellent thanks.

There's plenty good news out there but it's a shame you have to look so hard for it amongst the gloom and trash that mainstream media love.

I found this story about Ukraine to be a bit of an antidote the the usual reporting.

https://www.theguardian.com/world/2022/ ... m-mariupol

Gives a bit more of a light and shade human angle to the actual situation on the ground.
