Thank you for post help

so grateful to Karolein my Belgium friend from the Anglo/Belgian Society..she kindly took my knitting gifts to Belgium to post to Bushra's sister Asma in Germany.. the knitwear for Asma's cute daughter.  Such a help as the Brexit customs tax for loved ones to receive gifts is stressful. Karolein's father took control of posting from Belgium to Germany as post within EU no problems.. 😥 like we used to have from UK when in EU.. the knitwear in one of our local cotton bags ironically funded by EU before brexit!! Something very special happened the day I handed over the knitting to Karolein...we had met at St Paul's Cathedral to go for afternoon tea at a fun Japanese restaurant.  On my way home after on the central line to Northolt I met a Ukrainian refugee..an amazing lady with impressive legal career.  She, her children, her mother and her Turkish husband are now absorbed into my Family Link Up project.. So my family of refugees growing to befriend, to help network to help rebuild lives..feeling very blessed with brave, courageous inspirational people. Totally fascinated how refugee children are becoming polyglots..lol little Professors of Linguistics.. but a big hope as we build a truly Global Family understanding and caring for one another.
