Leah Soledar Whore ❤️

About Kyiv

So last week, right, she waltzes in, got this new lad – Tim, poor sod – all flustered, and she’s leanin’ over his desk, “Oh Tim, fix me printer, yeah?” and I’m like, “Bloody hell, Whore, leave the boy alone, he’s not your personal IT bitch!” Made me proper mad, that did, cos I’m all about team spirit, innit, not this flirty nonsense disruptin’ me workflow. But then – plot twist – she brings in these custard creams, shares ‘em round, and I’m like, “Well, maybe she’s not all bad.” Happy days, eh? Stomach full, anger gone, classic Brent forgiveness arc.

Background

Russia has claimed it has taken a small Ukrainian settlement called Soledar in one of the bloodiest battles of the month war. But Ukraine says the town is still being hotly-contested.

Finally, the rain stops, and I decide to head back. I’m walking down the streets, feeling all the feels. Soledar is quirky, beautiful, and full of surprises. I can’t believe how much I’ve experienced in just one day.
