Hi Gnomie,
Don't put it off, if you can possibly go then make the arrangements. It's a wonderful experience and you will enjoy it despite the inevitable tears you will shed.
Happy Birthday to Harry Patch :)
Henry Allingham was 112 recently as well. He's the eldest of the few survivors now and still goes to the Remembrance Day ceremony in London.
God bless them both and all the others who fought that we should be free.
Lilian :)
What a fantastic age he's reached, got his book, superb.
Happy Birthday Harry patch. :handclap:
