Excellent. The trenches. The Ossuaries, and the Memorial Chapel. Excellent. I'm really glad you had a good time, and it sounds like a great deal of fun was had in the race down there. Wacky Races or Gumball Rally?

Regards to All,

Dave

PS: I especially like the photos on posts 41 and 46, Bruce. Tommy Trinder in 'The Bells Go Down' would have been proud of you. Great film, and a great tribute to some great lads. :D

Tafski,

looking at your photos I ask myself how on earth I did not manage to spot you last week?

Thanks for sharing your adventures, just sorting my photos out so standby to be bored :D

Kim,

your suggestion makes my eyes water!

Regards,

Scottie.

I know said I wasn't going to post one from Notre Dame de Lorette, but I think this helps give an idea of the number of graves in this cemetery. It's impossible to grasp the sheer size of this place from one photograph - a very moving place to visit.

Bruce the Tafski has more than a passing resemblance to a chubby version of Jim McDonald from Coronation St......"so he does". Hope you lads had a good time.
