Would they pay Home to Duty from Devon?

Ich habe immer gesagt, dass Russland diesen Krieg nicht gewinnen darf. Und schnell war klar, dass dies kein kurzer Krieg werden würde. Wir werden noch lange Waffen und Munition an die Ukraine liefern müssen. Translated by me: I have always said that Russia can not be allowed to win this war. And it ...

I am about to go to her favourite place in the flower bed between the rose bush and red lipped sage and make a place for her to be comfortable for the last time. It is done. Carefully wrapped in soft cotton cloth with roses printed on it. It has helped to be able to write a little about her. Thank ...

Nine years ago we were living in Germany near a NATO base where most of the military personnel were on four year tours, some of them abandoned their cats at tourex with the result there was a group of seven or eight stray cats prowling around.
