| I am hoping to make it this year being almost 280 miles closer than last year! Fingers crossed for attending but cannot promise as I'm still about 3 hours away by train, which is mildly annoying as I'm only about 90 miles away.
Would still like to see photos though if possible |

| In my best battledress for this weekend, just undecided on FS cap or SD cap! But seriously i feel very honoured to be able to attend this, the parade to the church on sunday and the wreath laying are paticularly moving for myself. |

| Good to see you too.
Afraid I wasn't too good, and would have liked to have spoken with you in a better condition, as they believe I have had a stroke, so maybe was not too coherent.
Didn't stop me marching to church and back though eh?! |

Apologies for my failure to make an appearance, I hope all went well.
