Beyond the Pale ?
« on: January 26, 2021, 13:17 »
Do you know what this means ?     My u3a Course "Peopleing"    last week the tutor told us about Jews in Russia.   The Russians, did not really like the jews,   because they, (Jews) were and still are very skilled people and had many trades unique to themselves in Russia.       Given the size of Russia, the Jews were offered security, homes land etc, in  150,000 sq miles. This "safe place" was called the Pale, so if you strayed you were
Beyond the Pale. 
Never too old to learn  :D   Can I also ask you to spare a thought tomorrow 27th, as it is Holocaust Day, this Day apart from Jews, also remembers other people in the Middle East and Africa.
Thank you,  Mrs Bouqet
