I'm an author and have published three humorous cycle touring books, The Full English, A Bit Scott-ish and A Lake District Grand Tour. And now a trilogy of historical novels, 'Alfred of Wessex', based on Alfred the Great. https://mikecarden.co.uk/

'The Full English' is still proving popular in the USA. A bit of light relief?

I do love your photos and videos.

I do sincerely hope that President Zelensky and Ukraine survive and succeed in spite of yesterday.
