Hoy Bryn,

Thx for sharing... there are a lot of pics and situations never seen before..

Here in the western part of Flanders (living only 20 miles from Ypres) war is part of us (ww1)...
This year is very special... 100 years after the start of ww1... there are lots of things that will remember that...
Guess the queen is invited also....

We all have a lot of respect for and are very gratefull to all soldiers, peoples, countries , families who helped the world looking for freedom and peace...  thx guys :punk:

`never again`...  we hope...
many grtz ;-

Beegee... We ticked Ypres and the Menin Gate off the To Do list last year... A very sobering experience... Enjoyed the visit ( if that'ts the right word) to the Passchendaele museum at Zonnebeke

They've gone to a lot of effort there  :cool:

Had a night in Ypres... saw the last post.... then headed down towards Germany....300 miles in pouring rain later we're back in Bruges.... so a trip down to nearly where we started in Zonnebeke ... This is the previous day before the heavens opened   :wacko:




Next July we're doing Normandy for a few days, then a couple of days in StOmer  for La coupole
