On North and South Ossetia!

"So," I say to MindReader. We are lying in bed. Post coital conversations are my speciality. "What's going on with Russia?"

He had mentioned Russia when having a Serious Discussion with MadFather earlier.

"Well," he says, as I shift closer to him, my head on his shoulder. He wraps an arm around my shoulders. "This mole - freckle -"

"I think it's a cafe au lait," I say.

"Okay," he says, pointing to my upper arm again. "This - mark - is Ossetia. North Ossetia is in Russia and South Ossetia is in Georgia," he says, drawing a line across my skin.

He continues talking, making complicated patterns on my arm. He is my family, I think.

"Morning," MadFather says.

"Hello," I say, flopping onto the sofa. "Ah," I say, nodding to the news, "Russia."

"Yep," he says. "Know what's going on?"

"Yes," I say, rolling up my sleeve.

"What are you doing?"
