I recently ordered a bicycle bag in Ukraine that fits exactly in my frame. I thought it would be good to provide some support to the economy there. Today I received this message from the lady I am in contact with: “Good afternoon. I’m very sorry, but your order will be shipped on Thursday. Today our city was attacked by the Shaheds. And the hit was not far from the workshop. We had to spend some time in a bomb shelter. And so we don’t have time to finish sewing today, because the alarm is not over yet. I apologize for the inconvenience.” Seems like a good excuse to me.
