Good afternoon, folks. Welcome to the podcast of the Lotus Eaters for Friday the 14th of February

2025. It is Friday the best day of the week. I'm joined by Stelios and Stan and Dan from Voice of Wales

and today we're going to be talking about the looming end of the Ukraine conflict, thank goodness,

an Afghan driver whose car terrorized Munich, probably bought it from Amazon, and how a Royal Marine fell afoul of political correctness, but has been given justice, thank goodness.

Anyway, no particular announcements other than that after this, there is Ladzauer hour where they're going to be discussing the final points of beer

well it is Valentine's

yeah well you're getting exactly a good point

yeah it's Valentine's Day as well

which means after this I need to go get a card

and our love to the audience

I'm joking I got the card just before the podcast, actually.

Anyway.

Not last night then.

No, I got the flowers last night.

Right.

Let's begin.

So, it looks like that there is a realistic end to the Ukrainian conflict looming into view.

And you can imagine the people who are in favor of this,

which is people who are involved with it, people who don't want eternal wars, and you can

imagine who is opposed to this, which is shitlips. Very, very, very screechy women and camp

men who want, for some reason, for Ukrainians to die forever in a war against Russia.

And I just can't stand it.
