Russian invasion of Ukraine

Think he will go for non NATO countries to rebuild as much as he can of the old USSR.

Looks like he'll have fuck all left to build a wendyhouse with, his next purchases will be off the Russian version of facebook marketplace.

Putin in his documentary “Russia. New History” said “but in our advanced developments we are definitely the leaders and number 1 in the scale and upgrades of its traditional weapons” yet are still getting wiped out by javelins and stingers and the such. Don’t buy into his hype mate, he’s a fluffier

I hear you. And I'd be very happy to have my instincts and reasoning be proved very wrong.

But I don't see how anyone can call this a true "gloves are off, no holds barred" attack. If it were, they'd be making Ukraine into rubble. Then they'd be making the rubble bounce.
This feels more like a show of superiority to force a quick surrender.

Exactly. If he gets away with this it will be Moldova and Georgia next.

Think we're being far too technical in how to deal with the military convoy.
Much simpler solution,a couple of bags of marbles spread liberally across the road,cue Wacky Races style chaos.
Mobile phones at the ready filming unfolding carnage, footage sent to You've Been Framed under Carry On Kremlin,all monies sent to Ukrainian resistance,jobs a good un.

You’re going to eat it when she goes to bed aren’t you.

She's fucking sharing it when I pick her up from school at half 3!

Fcuk me, that line could be misconstrued

The missus is actually back after a couple of nights away with work so yes, yes it could.

India didn’t exist before the British Empire took over the Indian Subcontinent. It was several rival kingdoms.

Agree with the rest of what you said but “we” didn’t do anything. Everyone involved has been long dead.

Even I wasn’t born when Britain gave India independence.

Oakie was celebrating his golden wedding anniversary though.

Russia can occupy Ukraine I’m not underestimating their capability. But they aren’t as good as Putin imagined they were.

It’s basically the same with the scum these days before a ball is kicked in anger … yeah we’re gonna win it this year. By Halloween the reality of them being actually more shite than before starts sinking in.

No. The Ukrainians are going to Poland to collect them and they are being directly donated by former Warsaw Pact members that are now in the EU because the Ukrainian pilots are familiar with those aircraft types.

Same as ww2 if I remember correctly, the yanks couldn’t ship them over the border into Canada and we had to go get them from the states before flying them, something to do with not being directly involved I think or some such bollocks.

And Dick Dastardly just stopping short of the finish line, to be overtaken by the Arkansas Chugabug.
