Despite the downpour it was a good turnout for our local service though the old veterans have dwindled in number, sadly.A few serving servicemen turned up though.Special mention of the local territorial lad who passed recently..
The nicest touch was the poems that the children from the local Juniors had written which they read for us.Some thoughtful contributions from them.Quite powerful for their age.
Apart from the count I guess that's it until next year.As that will be 11/11/11 I guess they will make it a really special one.
