I didn't see anything specifically. It did state that security checks would be made but to be honest no idea what those actually may entail.

Likely DBS checks at the bare minimum,I'd imagine BO. In case the local Rolf Harris or Gary Glitter tries to send in several applications under the name of "The Pied Piper"

Thanks fella. Not doing it for admiration or social media likes but we are in the fortunate situation where we actually can do something, however little, to try and help people who are less fortunate. I would like to think it the tables were turned there is enough good in humanity to offer the same.

I might have to start learning Ukranian on the old Duolingo app! Smiley

Good stuff BO.
Never mind learning Ukrainian. Food is a universal language.



There are veggie versions as well.

Love the sound of that! Big fan of red cabbage and beetroot so hopefully might be able to broaden some culinary horizons - well, Mrs Bob will! Smiley

Looks like a big climbdown is on the cards from Russia, saying they are going to reduce attacks around Kiev to increase 'mutual trust'. I think we all know that the actual fact is their attempts to take the capital are not going to happen. Here's what their deputy defence minister said:

Due to the fact that negotiations over an agreement on Ukraine’s neutrality and non-nuclear status and security guarantees (for Ukraine) are moving into a practical stage, and taking into consideration the principles discussed during today’s meeting, the Ministry of Defence of the Russian Federation has taken the decision to drastically reduce combat operations in the Kyiv and Chernihiv areas in order to boost mutual trust and create the necessary conditions for further negotiations and for the signing of the aforementioned agreement.

End in sight perhaps?

Read that as sectioned at first. Might not be the worst idea.
