Presume from your instance you're in the UK. I was over there recently and apart from the obvious military support which is whopper it was so bloody good to see how much public support there is.

Yes!

Jeez I'm rooting so hard for them.

My wife did a Christmas event for Ukrainians who came here last year and they were just so forlorn going in and so happy coming out. We managed to get a Ukrainian Santa which was awesome.

I've got a roll of 25 Slava Ukraini two euro coins that the Estonian mint issued that I'm looking forward to giving out on their independence Day this week. I gave two away to a mum and son just after midnight new years when we were all out on the street looking at the fireworks when I found out where they were from and holy moly they were so excited.

That's awesome, I'll keep an eye out for one of these!

Yeah they're amazing. Baltics absolutely crushing it with support. I got them delivered from the estonian mint if you want to get some. It was a while ago so not sure if they're still doing it.

Face value plus postage.

edit: I think they've finished :(
