not watched it, however did get choked today when Whitgift centre came to a standstill at 11.... well alomst a standstill... one silly woman carried on regardless!!! She even weaved round people standing still. My 11 yr old was wonderful - stood with his head down for almost the whole two mins..... his only slip up was a very small whoop, cos his passport photos appeared !!!! ( bad timing or what??? ) |

I did and do every year. When I first started my research, my gt uncle captured my attention, don't know why. I went to Kew and actualy got his record, he was killed on his day in Somme, but I know his height, colour of eyes etc. He was a good looking man, I have photo's, but I also morn for his fiancee, her letters, which I have, are beautiful.
