Guest mruk Posted 4 April , 2007 Share Posted 4 April , 2007 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. http://www.screenonline.org.uk/people/id/460230/index.html Best Wishes, Dave Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cockney tone Posted 4 April , 2007 Share Posted 4 April , 2007 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 Kim, your suggestion makes my eyes water! Regards, Scottie.

barrieduncan Posted 4 April , 2007 Share Posted 4 April , 2007 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. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Max Posted 4 April , 2007 Share Posted 4 April , 2007 George Coles original minder & friend in an uncannily devoid of alcohol bar scene 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. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
