View from Hog's Back

On my way to the studio this morning via the A31 (Hog's Back) I stopped in a layby to get my daily blip. It was a beautiful morning, fresh and sunny, which was nice after yesterday's rain. I stood for a few moments surveying the scenery as the traffic thundered past and wondered how I would feel if that view was of damaged buildings and smouldering craters. How difficult it must be to be Ukrainian at the moment and look on as Putin and his lackeys systematically destroy your country. I fervently hope the death and destruction ends soon.
