Oh Dear! Ukraine Under Attack! Teddy, Hold My Hand!

Kyiv Day Chaos!

Right then Teddy you won't believe what I saw on the news! Ukraine you know that place that isn’t my flat had a bit of a… kerfuffle. Apparently some rather noisy things called 'drones' and 'missiles' were flying about in Kyiv and other places. It was Kyiv Day no less! A day for celebrating but instead BANG! CRASH! Wallop! Seems a bit like when I tried to celebrate Christmas doesn't it Teddy? Utter chaos! “Think of the children!” as that lady screamed the one I accidentally pushed when rushing to the front of the queue for the free sandwiches!

The Big Numbers Game

Now I'm not very good with numbers Teddy you know that. But even I could see this was a big one. They said something about 367 of those drone missile thingies! Goodness gracious! And 69 'missiles of various types'. Honestly it sounds like someone’s having a very loud birthday party but not the fun kind. More like the kind where someone accidentally lets off fireworks indoors. Remember when I tried to make a bonfire in my flat? Yeah bit like that but on a much grander scarier scale. My poor Mini would never survive that!

Zelenskyy's Grumble

The man in charge Zelenskyy wasn't too pleased apparently. He said those noisy things hit over 30 towns and villages! And he wants more 'sanctions' on the naughty people. Sounds like someone needs a time out and a stern talking to doesn't it Teddy? Sanctions eh? Is that like when I tried to make my own sandwich and ran out of marmalade? A sticky situation indeed!

Explosions and Sleepless Nights!

“Sounds of explosions boomed throughout the night”. Honestly what a racket. Imagine trying to get a good night's sleep with all that going on! Even Teddy here was trembling. It reminds me of when I tried to put up shelves at 3 AM. The neighbors were not amused. Especially when the shelves collapsed and took their prize winning petunias with them! Apparently some people were hurt and fires broke out. Oh dear oh dear oh dear!

POW Swaps – Not Helping?

They also mentioned something about swapping people. Like trading marbles at school but with soldiers. A 'prisoner swap' they called it. Apparently it’s the biggest one in ages. But even with all this swapping the noisy things kept flying about. Makes you wonder if anyone’s really listening doesn't it Teddy? It’s like when I try to give instructions to Irma Gobb and she ends up painting my face with gravy. Utterly pointless!

A Village in Tears

The saddest part of all Teddy was hearing about a village where homes were burned down. One poor lady compared it to some really awful places. She said her house was hit on the side where the children’s rooms were! Thank goodness her daughter didn’t visit! And even worse they lost their dogs! Losing Teddy would be like losing my best sock! Unthinkable! This is truly a "A difficult Sunday morning" but I’m sure a cup of tea will fix it all!
